TO DOWNPLAY THE RISE IN
CONFIRMED CASES.
HE SAYS, MORE ASYMPTOMATIC
YOUNG PEOPLE ARE TESTED.
JOINING US NOT TO PROVIDE
CONTEXT IS DR. EILEEN SHE IS AN
INFECTIOUS DISEASE EXPERT IT'S
GOOD TO HAVE YOU.
LET'S BEGIN WITH WHAT CONCERNS
YOU MOST ABOUT THE RISING RATE
OF INFECTION.
DID EVENING, TO YOU.
WHAT CONCERNS ME MOST, IS THAT
IT IS NOT JUST ABOUT TESTING.
IT'S NOT SOMETHING GOING ON
WITH ASYMPTOMATIC.
WE HAVE MORE PEOPLE COMING TO
THE HOSPITAL AND HAVING TO BE
ADMITTED AND EVEN ICU
ADMISSION.
IT IS A REAL INCREASE GOING ON
HERE.
IT IS A REALITY CHECK FOR ALL
OF US.
WE HAVE TO GO BACK AND
RECOGNIZE THE REALITY THAT THIS
VIRUS IS AMONG US.
IT IS STILL SPREADING FROM
HOUSE TO HOUSE.
WE HAVE TO TAKE ACTIONS TO
PREVENT THE VIRUS FROM GETTING
IN PLAY.
PREDICT THE GOVERNOR KEEPS
REPEATING THE REASON WE SEE
MORE CASES, IS BECAUSE WE ARE
DOING MORE TESTING AND SO THOSE
OF US WHO REALLY DON'T KNOW AS
MUCH AS THE EXPERTS TO DO IT
SOUNDS REASONABLE, ARE YOU
SAYING THERE IS MORE TO IT THAN
THAT?
THERE IS MORE TO IT THAN THAT.
I THINK WE SHOULD NOT DOWNPLAY
IT WE SHOULD LET PEOPLE KNOW
THAT, IT'S A SERIOUS VIRUS THE
FACT WE ARE DETECTING MORE
ASYMPTOMATIC CASES, BECAUSE WE
FINALLY GOT AROUND TO WHAT WE
SHOULD HAVE DONE IN THE FIRST
PLACE.
WE SHOULD ISOLATE PEOPLE AND
QUARANTINED THE CONTACTS.
THAT IS A VERY IMPORTANT THING
WE ARE DOING.
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT,
STUDIES ARE SHOWING THE
ASYMPTOMATIC PEOPLE ARE
ASYMPTOMATIC BECAUSE NEW
RESPONSES ARE WEAK.
THESE PEOPLE CAN SPREAD IT
EASILY TO OTHERS.
THAT'S A VERY SERIOUS CONCERN.
A STUDY CAME OUT, TODAY.
IT'S A EXCELLENT STUDY ADJUST
THE ASYMPTOMATIC PEOPLE, NOT
ONLY DO NOT HAVE A GOOD IMMUNE
RESPONSE WHAT ANTIBODIES DAVID
L VANISH IN A FEW MONTHS.
THAT MEANS, THEY CAN BE
REINFECTED IN THE NEXT TIME
THEY WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT
REACTION AND, THEY MAY END UP
IN THE HOSPITAL.
OFFICIALS SAY AS WE SEE THE
MEDIAN AGE PEOPLE BE YOUNGER,
YOU KNOW, WE ARE NOT HEARING
NUMBERS ABOUT THE RECOVERY
RATE, DR. MARTY.
IS IT PART OF THAT HAS TO DO
WITH THE WAY INFORMATION HAS
SPREAD, ABOUT THIS VIRUS.
SO, YOUNGER PEOPLE, ARE MORE
LIKELY TO BE OUT AND ABOUT.
THEY FEEL AUTOMATICALLY
PROTECTED BY AIDS.
THEY NEED TO UNDERSTAND, THAT
WHERE THEY MAY NOT HAVE SERIOUS
SYMPTOMS, THEY CAN SPREAD IT TO
VULNERABLE MEMBERS OF THE
POPULATIONS AND PEOPLE ELDERLY.
SO, THAT IS A HUGE PROBLEM.
AND THE FACT THAT YOUNGER
PEOPLE THAT ARE SHOWING UP
POSITIVE, NOW, IS CLEARLY A
REFLECTION OF DIFFERENT
BEHAVIOR, OLDER PEOPLE WITH
UNDERLYING CONDITIONS, NO, THEY
ARE AT RISK.
THEY ARE BEHAVING
APPROPRIATELY.
IS IT PAST TIME TO CONSIDER
ANOTHER LOCKDOWN, DO YOU THINK?
IT IS NOT A MOMENT TO DO HER
LOCKDOWN NOW.
IT IS A WAKE-UP CALL.
HEY, GUYS, WE HAVE TO DO THE
PHYSICAL DISTANCE IN AND WEAR A
MASK.
TO HYGIENE.
WE HAVE TO DO RESPIRATORY
ETIQUETTE AND WE CANNOT MESS
AROUND WITH RULES.
WE SPENT MONTHS DEVELOPING NEW
NORMAL GUIDELINES.
WE KNOW HOW IT IS TRANSMITTED
AND USING THE SCIENCE, AND
DOING RISK ASSESSMENT FOR EVERY
TO BUSINESS.
FOLLOW PROTOCOLS, DO NOT IGNORE
THEM.
WE HAVE AN OPEN ECONOMY.
