Question

The Corona virus has created two big challenges, i.e. threat to life
among the poor and increase in poverty.
What lessons can we take from other countries to handle the situation on
the health front?

Answer 1

Answer:

Asia was the first place to experience the coronavirus, impose lockdowns and then emerge from them. It was also the first to experience new groups of infections, with clusters from nightclubs in Seoul, the Russia-China border, and elsewhere. Although it is early for conclusions, can lessons be learned?

1. Wave, spike or cluster - it's unavoidable

Terms such as second wave, spikes or clusters of cases are bandied around, but what do they mean?

Medically, a second wave refers to the resurgence of infection in a different part of a population after an initial decrease. The WHO says past pandemics have been characterised by "waves of activity spread over months".

In Asia, we have been seeing isolated clusters and regional spikes in infection numbers. and it is hard to predict how they will develop.

But for Jennifer Rohn, a cell biologist at University College, London, a second wave of coronavirus infections is no longer a matter of "if" - but of "when, and how devastating".

Even countries with effective strategies to tackle the pandemic through testing, tracing and lockdown management - such as South Korea - have seen spikes and clusters of cases.

So when the World Health Organization says the virus may be here to stay, nations need to understand that they will experience new cases. The challenge is how to predict, track and handle them.

health

response to COVID-19 at national and subnational levels,

and to update the global strategy to respond to the COVID-19

pandemic. This document complements, and provides links

to, the technical guidance published by WHO on preparing

for and responding to COVID-19 since the beginning of the

response. It translates knowledge accumulated since the

publication of the Strategic Preparedness and Response Plan

(SPRP)1

on 3 February 2020, into additional practical guidance

for whole-of-government and whole-of-society strategic

action that can be adapted according to specific national

and subnational situations and capacities.

This strategy update provides guidance for countries preparing

for a phased transition from widespread transmission to a

steady state of low-level or no transmission. This update also

highlights the coordinated support that is required from the

international community to meet the challenge of COVID-19:

it complements plans (including the Global Humanitarian

Response Plan)

2

that specifically address the issues

of COVID-19 response in humanitarian and fragile settings,

and plans currently under development that will address

the broader social and economic impacts of COVID-19.
