ð·Exclusive: Vaccination in the second wave of corona reduced the percentage of patients over 60 by 6%, only 2% in children and 8% in women.
Discussions are underway on the possibility of a third wave after the completion of the second wave of Corona. The most interesting and important thing among the discussions of the possible third wave is that the second wave against the first wave has seen only a 2% increase in the transition in children. That is 3% of children were infected in the first wave while 5% in the second wave. Not only that but the biggest thing is that the number of patients above 60 years of age has increased as compared to the first wave but the percentage has decreased due to vaccination. Read the first Divya Bhaskar exclusive report detailing patients infected with the first wave and the second wave in the state.
3 lakh infected in one year, more than 5 lakh infected in 2 months
The first positive case of corona was reported in the state on March 19, 2020, after which the transmission of covid began to spread across the state. The biggest thing is that the first wave i.e. from March 2020 to March 2021, i.e. a total of 312748 people became infected in one year, against which the second wave i.e. in the year 2021 from April-June period 510775 people became infected.
3% in the first, 5% in the second wave infected children
The first wave of corona infected a total of 9512 children aged 1-15 years, accounting for 3%, while the second wave infected 25,544 children, accounting for 5%. Which includes 14452 boys while 11092 girls. Dr. of Pediatrics Department of KD Hospital, Ahmedabad. Snehal Patel says that during Covid he has seen a recovery rate of 90 to 95% in ope Covid positive children. The chances of covidia are higher when the ACE-2 receptor is high in the respiratory tract, but lower in the respiratory tract of children, so the risk of corona in children is lower. In addition, children up to 2 years of age are routinely vaccinated to strengthen their immunity.
As the number of patients over 60 increased, the percentage of patients from vaccination decreased by 6%
The most interesting thing is that the second wave of corona has seen a statistical increase in patients over the age of 60, although the percentage has decreased by 6%. The first wave infected 58,921 patients over the age of 60, accounting for 19% of the total, while the second wave infected 65,951 patients over the age of 60, accounting for 13% of the total, meaning that the second wave reduced the number of patients by 6%. Dr. Tushar Patel, a member of the Covid Task Force of the state government and a pulmonologist, says that at the beginning of vaccination, people above 60 years of age were given priority and were vaccinated, resulting in a decrease in the percentage of patients in this age group.
The lower the transition in women, the higher the percentage of transition in the second wave
Both waves of the corona showed lower rates of infection in women than in men, but the second wave reported higher rates of infection in women. The total number of female infected patients during April-May was 1.5 lakh, a percentage of which was recorded at 34%. Against which 2.13 lakh women became infected in the second wave, the percentage of which was recorded at 42%. On the other hand, 2.6 lakh men became infected in the first wave, which is 66%. The second wave infected 2.97 lakh men, a percentage of 58%. That is, the percentage of transition in women in the second wave increased by 8% compared to the first wave.
The transition is less common in women, but the severity is the same
According to experts, the incidence of infection in women may have been low, but the severity during the transition was similar in both, so everyone needs to be taken care of. Alpesh Gandhi, President of the Gynecological Society of India. Talking to said that some men have more addiction, comorbidity. In addition, the higher the number of cytochrome-strome cells, the higher the rate of infection. However, infected women who are pregnant or suffering from any other problem also take some time to recover.
Most transition to people aged 16-45 years
The first and second wave of covid infected most people aged 16-45. In the second wave, this same group accounted for 60% of the total infected patients, while in the first wave, 49% of the total infected patients aged 16-45 years, an increase of 11% in the second wave.
