ABSTRACT
Objective:To discuss the strategy of fighting and containing COVID-19. Method:The speed of the spreading of the ordinary strain in Dalian on Dec. 15, 2021 caused by carrying cold-chain goods from a Russia-registered freighter and the Delta strain caused by imported cases in Guangzhou during May 20 to Jul. 23, 2021 was compared. Results:The incubation period of the first generation of the imported Delta strain of COVID-19 was 4 days, which was 5 days shorter than that of the ordinary strain of COVID-19; The time from the exposure to the Delta strain to spreading to the next person was 1/3 days shorter than that of the ordinary strain of COVID-19. The inactivated vaccine needs at least 8 days for recall immune response meanwhile the mRNA vaccine needs at least 4 days, which could not completely block the COVID-19 virus, especially the Delta strain, which can attack with an ultra-short incubation period. Meanwhile, some COVID-19 strains have an incubation period longer than 14 days, which was another reason for the outbreak. Conclusion:The time from the exposure to the COVID-19 Delta strain to spreading to the next person is 1/3 day shorter that of the ordinary strain of COIVD-19. Measures of full vaccination, physical quarantine and wearing masks in public should be taken to fight the epidemic of COVID-19, especially the Delta strain (or other variants) with an ultra-short or an ultra-long incubation period which can escape quarantine.
ABSTRACT
Throughout the past 2020, the pandemic COVID-19 has caused a big global shock, meanwhile it brought a great impact on the public health network. Trauma emergency system faced a giant challenge and how to manage trauma under the pandemic of COVID-19 was widely discussed. However, the trauma treatment of special population (geriatric patients and patients taking anticoagulant drugs) has received inadequate attention. Due to the high mortality following severe traumatic hemorrhage, hemostasis and trauma-induced coagulopathy are the important concerns in trauma treatment. Sepsis is another topic should not be ignored when we talking about trauma. COVID-19 itself is a special kind of sepsis, and it may even be called as serious systemic infection syndrome. Sepsis has been become a serious problem waiting to be solved urgently no matter in the fields of trauma, or in intensive care and infection, etc. This article reviewed the research progress in areas including trauma emergency care, trauma bleeding and coagulation, geriatric trauma and basic research of trauma within 2020.
