The wave of the delta variant of the coronavirus has ended in Slovakia, now the wave of the omicron is coming, the mathematician Richard Kollár is ending on Facebook. In his status, he identified several threats that the upcoming mutation will pose to our country and the forecasts do not sound optimistic.
According to mathematics, there are five basic threats we are likely to face. The first is overcrowded hospitals, from which staff may be constantly dropped due to coronavirus infections.
“Short-term extremely overcrowded hospitals, outpatient outages, outages in hospitals not primarily in the COVID ward,” Kollár says with words that especially lower medical staff could fall.
Omikron will not only affect healthcare, but the second threat is the failure of other services. “Suddenly, a large group of people who normally provide the service, or almost everyone, can be infected, except for the health sector, especially the police, courts, prosecutors, prison guards, transport workers, but also firefighters, energy suppliers, roadblocks, vendors. , operation of petrol pumps or distribution of goods, “ express in state.
The third threat is the arrival of Slovaks living abroad back home before the upcoming holidays. “Arrival of tens of thousands of people from areas where it is currently growing at home in Slovakia,” states.
According to Kollár, people who cannot be vaccinated for various reasons also paid for the attack as the fourth threat. “Infecting those who can’t vaccinate, their vaccinated loved ones (so far they have protected them thanks to vaccination, but it won’t be enough with omikron),” mathematics is intended.
Kollár sees the final threat in the strong reaction of the Slovak government. “Whenever our decision was made suddenly, it was made badly, often things don’t make sense at all and the measures contradict each other, it takes weeks for things to be set up at least a little sensibly, so far almost the whole wave will take place.” writes in a post.
The mathematician claims that it is not necessary to succumb to fear, to take the situation factually and to behave prudently with an emphasis on the protection of one’s own health, but the data so far do not sound optimistic.
“But it is necessary to think that Slovakia probably did not face such a thing after the Second World War. “ ends.
