learn more The coronavirus is a disease seasonal ?
The decline of the epidemic of coronavirus is continuing in France, with a balance sheet still encouraging yesterday evening, and a point of epidemiological which seems to indicate that the déconfinement has not caused the second wave of the virus (read more below). This recession observed in the late spring, revives the hypothesis of a “seasonality” to the new coronavirus similar to that of other viruses such as the flu which goes away during sunny days and returns each winter with more or less force. In debate for months, this assumption is now supported by a number of doctors and scientists, including epidemiologist Antoine Flahault, who recalls via the AFP that it is “winter” and “mainland China” that this virus emerged in late 2019, before spreading into the “temperate zone of the northern hemisphere between January and may.” At the same time, “its activity was lower in the temperate zones of the southern hemisphere”. Now, the reverse is true : “we know a little bit everywhere a recession is pronounced, except in some regions of the northern hemisphere such as Sweden, Poland and some States of the USA”, so that”at the approach of winter in the southern hemisphere, Argentina, Chile, southern Brazil, South Africa are aware of the growing epidemic strong, and remind us of ours a few months ago,” continues the expert, who is director of the Institute of Global Health from the University of Geneva.
The temperature and humidity would play a secondary role in the spread of the coronavirus, as indicated in a study by researchers from the american university of Princeton, published in may in the journal Science. But another study, conducted by the National Biodefense Analysis and Countermeasures Center u.s. and published in April, concluded that the coronavirus is weakened in a hot and humid atmosphere as well as under the rays of the sun. A study used by Donald Trump in the United States, which had marked the spirits by suggesting “injections” of UV. Sunshine, with a destructive role of ultraviolet radiation on the envelope of the virus, however, would be the determining factor. Still, the summer is also propice for outdoor activities, where promiscuity is less strong and where the air circulates better. Two factors that limit very significantly the risk of contamination.
the seasonality of The SARS-CoV-2 remains a hypothesis difficult to verify, says infectious diseases physician Pierre Tattevin, still with the AFP. At a time when temperatures and insolation increased in France and in Europe, “it was confined to the bottom”, he says. Thus, it is difficult to distinguish the influence of seasonal effect of the confinement on the current slowing of the epidemic. “There are so many parameters that come into account, that we may not know what is linked to the climate, which is linked to the season or the fact that people do care,” emphasizes the practitioner at the CHU of Rennes.
Even if the coronavirus was seasonal, that does not mean that we would be rid permanently of the virus. If Antoine Flahault assumes that there is “a brake on the summer” to the coronavirus, he says : “it may be partial, and will not necessarily prevent a movement, may be moderate throughout the summer in our hemisphere”. The epidemiologist is going to raise a “high risk of resurgence” for the return of the cold, in the fall.
wave 2 of the coronavirus has been avoided after the déconfinement ?
The outbreak of coronavirus-a-t-she bounced back in France since the lifting of the containment measures and restrictions ? We now know more about the evolution of the virus one month after the beginning of the déconfinement on may 11, and even since the 2nd phase, which began on 2 June with the introduction of more liberties. Public health France has published 12 June, every Friday, his point épidémiologique hebdomadaire, covering the consolidated data of the previous week, week 23, from 1 to 7 June. These figures provide a first vision that is very reliable of the evolution of the Covid-19 from the sagging more pronounced restrictions. Public health France also unveiled in its balance sheet, daily, yesterday three new indicators (rate of positivity of the tests, the number of clusters in the course of the investigation, as well as that of departments in a situation of high vulnerability). All of these indicators lead to the conclusion that this déconfinement has, for the moment, plunged France into a health situation critical. Here’s what we can say about the outbreak of coronavirus :
The weekly number of deaths in France has decreased between weeks 22 and 23 : 395 in week 23 versus 570 in week 22. “The death rate weekly (per 100 000 inhabitants) at the national level is also declining : it was 0.59 in week 23 vs 0.85 in week 22,” says public Health France. Since the month of may, the mortality rate has recovered to levels consistent with those recorded in the same period during the past two years.
The rate of positive tests national weekly was 1.49% in week 23. It was from 1.53 the previous week (S22). Public health France rounds up this figure to 1.5, and concluded that this “is a similar rate” to the previous one, but the trend is still to the downside, especially as the last point daily evaluates to 1.4. In metropolitan France, only the Marne displays a higher rate (6.5 per cent).
The incidence rate (number of new cases per 100 000 inhabitants) was at the national level of 4.3/100 000 inhabitants in week 23. It was also lower than the rate reported prior to phase 2 of the déconfinement, either 6,14 positive tests per 100 000 inhabitants. It was also lower than 10/100 000 h for the vast majority of the departments of metropolitan France. The highest incidence rates have been observed in the departments of the Marne (with 19.3/100 000 inhabitants), the Meurthe and Moselle and 20.9/100 000 h) and the Meuse (at 26.4/100 000 h).
The balance sheet of the clusters (excluding long-term care facilities, and family environment restricted) amounted to 9 June 193 clusters from may 9 : 179 clusters in metropolitan France and 14 in the departments regions overseas. “The weekly number of clusters reported is decrease in week 23 compared to the last 3 weeks,” says public Health France. Half of the clusters was still under investigation (92) at this time. After a decline on Thursday, the figure fell to 92 in the figures announced Friday evening by public Health, France.
The R, or the number of reproduction national strength, calculated from the passages to the emergency room for suspicion of COVID-19 was 0.73 (confidence interval (CI95%) : 0,71-0,76) in week 23 and therefore remained less than 1. “This means as well that a person infected infects less than one other and that, therefore, the epidemic is on the decline in France,” says public Health France. On march 15, 2020, either a few days before the peak of the epidemic, the R numbers had been estimated at 2.8. It then fell, and on may 11, 2020, upon the establishment of the déconfinement, it was 0.8. Overall, it is stable since this date.
many other data have been published and indicate that the epidemic continues to decline. In week 23 still, the rate of consultations (or tele-consultation) is estimated for an IRA (acute respiratory infection) was 12/100, 000 inhabitants in France, metropolitane. It was judged to be “stable” compared to week 22 (25 to 31 may 2020) : 14/100 000 inhabitants.
