CDC estimates at least 9,200 health care workers have been infected with coronavirus - Mimo - 2020-04-16 CDC estimates at least 9,200 health care workers have been infected with coronavirus By Jorge Fitz-Gibbon April 15, 2020 | 6:13pm [/url] Nurse Elizabeth Moyano at St. Mary's General Hospital in New Jersey Matthew McDermott At least 9,200 health care workers in the US have been infected by the coronavirus since the outbreak of the deadly pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Wednesday. That number is likely an underestimate as most COVID-19 infection reports don’t identify whether the patient worked in the health field, [url=https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6915e6.htm?s_cid=mm6915e6_w]the CDC noted in its first look at the impact on the country’s medical professionals. The national public health agency said it scoured data from all 50 states between Feb. 12 and April 9 and came up with 315,531 confirmed coronavirus cases — 9,282 of them identified as healthcare workers. But while this suggests that overall only 3 percent of the confirmed cases were among health care workers, the CDC also stressed that in states with more complete accounting of whether the case was a health care worker, those in the field accounted for 11 percent of cases. Still, more than 80 percent of the records reviewed did not indicate if the patient worked in the health field, the organization noted, meaning the true number is likely much higher. In addition, CNN also noted that the CDC’s estimate of total cases is far fewer the more than 460,000 people recorded by Johns Hopkins University during the same timeframe. About 90 percent of health care workers in the CDC’s report had not been hospitalized, while 184 were in intensive care units and 27 had died from the virus. CDC officials said this proves that an analysis of the pathogen’s impact on health care professions is vital as they continue to battle the pandemic. “It is critical to make every effort to ensure the health and safety of this essential national workforce of approximately 18 million HCP [health care personnel], both at work and in the community,” the agency’s report said. “Surveillance is necessary for monitoring the impact of COVID-19-associated illness and better informing the implementation of infection prevention and control measures. Improving surveillance through routine reporting of occupation and industry not only benefits HCP, but all workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.” Meanwhile, the Johns Hopkins number ballooned to more than 630,000 by Wednesday afternoon — meaning the US currently makes up almost a third of the more than 2 million confirmed cases globally.

Có người cousin bà con cô cậu sống một mình ở NY cũng bị đau hơn 3 tuần nay mà nó dấu hoặc là không kịp báo cho ở nhà biết. Mãi đến bây giờ khỏi bịnh rồi mới nói cho người nhà biết là cũng struggle, phải chiến đấu dữ lắm, cô này chỉ mới ba mươi mí thôi. Chắc tuỳ người mà bịnh nhẹ hay nặng, tuỳ strain ?

Nghe các bác sĩ nói không nên cho họ dùng ventilator sớm quá. Phần lớn bị nặng là vì somehow những antibodies của cơ thể lại bị confuse và attack healthy cells và làm cho phổi bị inflammation nên họ phải cho thuốc để hạ thấp hiện tượng này.

Trường hợp cousin của Qx được gọi là autoantibody. alloantibody là một trường hợp khác nữa. Nếu về nhà là mừng rồi Hy vọng sức khoẻ cô ta sẽ tốt hơn, nhiều khi gd lo lắng nên cũng không muốn cho nguời ở xa biết. RE: CDC estimates at least 9,200 health care workers have been infected with coronavirus - TeaOla - 2020-04-17 Oh WoW !!! https://www.kolotv.com/content/news/Nurses-in-Calif-suspended-for-refusing-COVID-19-care-without-N95-mask-569686871.html SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) - Nurse Mike Gulick was meticulous about not bringing the coronavirus home to his wife and their 2-year-old daughter. He’d stop at a hotel after work just to take a shower. He’d wash his clothes in Lysol disinfectant. They did a tremendous amount of handwashing. Health care workers and nurses protest the lack of N95 respirators and other Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) while guarding social distancing guidelines outside the UCLA Medical Center, Santa Monica amid the coronavirus pandemic in Santa Monica, Calif., Monday, April 13, 2020. (Source: AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes) But at Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California, Gulick and his colleagues worried that caring for infected patients without first being able to don an N95 respirator mask was risky. The N95 mask filters out 95% of all airborne particles, including ones too tiny to be blocked by regular masks. But administrators at his hospital said they weren’t necessary and didn’t provide them, he said. His wife, also a nurse, not only wore an N95 mask but covered it with a second air-purifying respirator while she cared for COVID-19 patients at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center across town in Los Angeles. ]Then, last week, a nurse on Gulick’s ward tested positive for the coronavirus, which causes the disease COVID-19. The next day doctors doing rounds on their ward asked the nurses why they weren’t wearing N95 masks, Gulick said, and told them they should have better protection.
