ffp3 riutilizzabili - It’s hard not to compare the coronavirus to previous virus outbreaks like SARS and MERS, two other deadly respiratory illnesses. Fox News spoke with a top virology expert at the Mayo Clinic about what similarities can be drawn between these viral epidemics and what the medical community is doing in regards to testing to make sure COVID-19 doesn’t turn into a pandemic. As case numbers and fears surrounding the coronavirus outbreak rise by the day, discerning just how dangerous the virus is, both at home and abroad, can be difficult.
ffp3 riutilizzabili, In an interview with Fox News, Mayo Clinic virologist Dr. Matthew Binnicker explained how the novel coronavirus compares with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS). Binnicker also discussed what a potential pandemic would look like in the U.S., while clarifying current testing procedures. The pneumonia-like COVID-19 was first reported in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. As of Friday, it had reportedly infected some 98,000 people in about 83 countries, and claimed the lives of 3,383 others.

The SARS outbreak had a mortality or a fatality rate of about 10 percent, while the MERS outbreak killed about 35 percent of all people infected, Binnicker said.

So we'll have to see how things progress over the course of the next month to year to see what the true numbers and the true mortality turns out to be,” Binnicker said. As for testing, Binnicker said that possible coronavirus patients are mostly receiving molecular or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests. “These tests are generally very sensitive and we can detect really low amounts of the virus in a patient's clinical sample. On the samples that we're collecting from these patients are throat swabs, swabs from their nasopharynx and then lower respiratory tract samples,” he explained.
