Scientists warned! Masks could be back this winter

Scientists warned Masks could be back this winter

The effects of Covid-19 have changed our lives both in health and social terms. Considering that the effects of Covid-19, which has many different variants, have decreased, the protections in social life were suspended. Masks and quarantine may return this winter, according to research by Imperial College London in England. The study found that two-thirds of coronavirus cases passed five days after the onset of symptoms, but some cases were still contagious a week later.

STAY INSULATED UNTIL IT IS NEGATIVE TWICE

Professor Ajit Lalvani, from Imperial College London and lead author of the study, recommended that coronavirus patients should remain in quarantine for five days and not come out of isolation until they test negative for the coronavirus twice. The World Health Organization (WHO) urged people to ‘wear masks and maintain social distancing’ in a statement, adding: ‘Learning to live with Covid-19 doesn’t mean pretending it’s not there.’

Professor Lalvani, director of the NIHR Health Protection Research Unit in Respiratory Infections at Imperial, said: “Before this study we were missing half the picture on infectiousness, which is essential for controlling any pandemic.” said.
While drawing attention to the coming winter months, experts called for the return of mask and quarantine rules. WHO, on the other hand, repeated its warnings about reminder doses of vaccines to protect against the effects of the coronavirus.
