Samut Sakhon – (19 Dec ’20) Dr.Teera, MD. Thira Worathanarat, Faculty of Medicine Chulalongkorn University Post facebook, topic “… Solve the Mahachai problem, Samut Sakhon …” stating that
- Right now, 13 have both family members. Alien worker People who live near the market, people come to buy things, etc. There is a whole outside circle. OK, is it safe?
A: Little children can answer that it is not safe, there is a high risk. Because we really don’t know How many people will be infected And where does the origin come from?
If you look at the situation We never know.
All of them were caused by the same incident. Or different karma in different terms But came to be detected during this period because they were examined from the 67-year case to investigate the disease To take history and find evidence It’s hard to complete Because it is a flashback Will have trouble remembering details
If you look at the lessons of repeated outbreaks around the world Most often they cannot find their origin. And reached the fullest Will have many reasons and many times Often cannot decide
Therefore, the most suitable way is
First, keep the investigation process as full as possible. With preservation in advance that it cannot be concluded
Second, we are determined to tackle the present problem. The spread of infection in the community, as seen in the outside circle. By “inspecting everyone in the area” as China has done for example Because this time we are very similar to the Wuhan case. If everyone examines thoroughly, they will know that How much are you stuck now? Because the source may or may not be a 67-year-old case, or may or may not be a 67-year-old foreign worker, but it could be another reason. Whether they are foreigners in the community or have been infected with someone who is already living in the community, it is possible.
Three announcements at risk areas at provincial level So that people in the area And Thai people know the situation And ask for cooperation to reduce and avoid unnecessary travel in and out of the area
Fourth, ordered to limit operations at risk of epidemic in the area. It is allowed to open only in separate periods where the employer and employee have been screened for COVID.
5. Inform people in the area to refrain from activities that risk easy transmission. Especially the various entertainment events Including Christmas and countdown
And finally, which the area has already announced is Giving 100% of the mask when going out
- How believable is the discourse “eat seafood”?
Answer: Medical data showed Several studies have reported the detection of COVID virus in chilled or frozen food, such as a report from China. Whether shrimp, fish, other seafood, chicken wings, beef
Research has shown that the virus can survive in cold temperatures. Whether it is a refrigerator from 4 degrees to -80 degrees Celsius and can last up to 14-21 days ever.
With the above knowledge There is a chance that chilled or frozen raw materials may be contaminated with the virus if they come from an epidemic source. May make people who deal with raw materials Or the common people who buy it to cook and eat Will be exposed to the virus that is contaminated Therefore care must be taken such as wearing gloves and masks when handling those materials. Do not take your nose to sniff it up close. Do not put the contaminated hands to pick and scratch the face Although there is currently no evidence that these food contamination will lead to infection. But should not be underestimated
Therefore, the discourse about eating seafood normally Traditionally, this is not correct in the circumstances in which the outbreak is present.
What is suitable is
One is still able to trade seafood raw materials. But be careful with both buyers and sellers.
Second, eating seafood during this time. “You should only eat cooked seafood.” Eating raw is not recommended. Or semi-cooked, semi-raw Because if there is contamination of the virus Will make it likely to come in contact with the infection
Three among those who operate a seafood business Whether it is a processed product Or fresh produce for resale By receiving from areas that are still affected Would like to have strictness on cleanliness Emphasize the protection of entrepreneurs and employees as well. It is better to keep it than to fix it.
- Really asking, Christmas and New Year? Can you organize an event?
A: Personally, I think it can be organized, but it should be a small event.
And must know that The overall situation is vulnerable to an outbreak. Because I really don’t know Whether or not someone has spread the infection So if to arrange Must be very protective
If I go to the event, I will probably go for a moment. Always wear a mask And wash your hands forever If you were to eat and drink, you would probably eat within 15 minutes and eat away from everyone else at the event.
As for the very risky places that are crowded, such as concerts, pubs, bars, etc., you can immediately answer “I won’t go”.
Encourage May I love myself, love my family, always protect myself.
