Coronavirus: the main source of contagion in Rosario is already community circulation

In just a month and a half, the circulation community of coronavirus became the main cause of contagion in Rosario. The data provided by the Secretariat of Health municipal is eloquent: if last June 21 about 122 cases positives made up only 3.1 percent of the total; he 13 In August of 1,260 confirmed cases, community circulation already accounted for 35.4 percent. An alert that was lit and caused the operations of the Plan Detect in the city.

The data provided by the officials themselves are eloquent when analyzing the evolution of the pandemic in the area. On 22 April, with 98 positive people there were 34.4 percent of imported cases, 37.7 due to close contact, 18 percent were workers of health, 5.7 percent in investigation and in last place, with 4.1 percent, was community circulation.

By June 21, with 122 positive people, imported cases went to 39.2 percent, the narrow ones to 35.1; 20.6 health workers; community circulation fell to 3.1 percent and 2.1 percent under investigation.

Thus, the two statistical cakes mentioned do not seem to have many modifications but only nuances. However, On August 13, the “photo” of the coronavirus in Rosario was diametrically opposite in terms of confirmed cases by notion of focus.

Imported cases fell to 4.8 percent, healthcare workers to 9 percent, and close contact also dropped to 28.3 percent. On the other hand, the cases under investigation are 22.5 percent and the most important data: community circulation climbed to first place with 35.4 percent.

It is worth saying that between contagions no nexus and close contacts (closely associated with social encounters) make up two-thirds of the total.

The main causes for which it is generated community circulation are linked to affective meetings, beyond the fact that in the province of Santa Fe they are still prohibited, and work environments, where, according to specialists, health protocols are not respected.

For this week it is already planned that the Detect Plan will land in one or several popular neighborhoods to “catch” new cases. 1,800 families have already been visited, 450 swabs were made, with a positive percentage of 5 percent.

Among the territorial activities, the operators have already visited Empalme Graneros, Santa Lucía, Ludueña, Cagancha, Vía Honda and Las Flores.

It should be remembered that last Wednesday the Detect Plan was activated again in the Ludueña Norte neighborhood, with the aim of locating positive cases early and stopping the transmission chain as quickly as possible.

In this context, health authorities indicated that 90 swabs were made related to the nine cases that occurred a week ago.

Looking at the curve

At the time of the analysis, the municipal Health Secretary, Leonardo Caruana, showed the evolution of Covid-19 in Rosario from three images: April, when the infections occurred due to a history of travel abroad. In June, when contagions arise from trips within the country and August, the cases under investigation and community circulation are confirmed.

“We are at a time of greater risk and it forces us to continue amplifying to follow each case cconfirmed and put together the chain of infections, look for the straits, isolate them and study the probable ones “, he indicated and warned:” It is not the same that around each case there are 4 others, that it reaches 40. Therefore, the strategy is to address each one of them, to have a growth curve that is not exaggerated and not exponential ”.

One of the critical points is the form of contagion that worries the authorities. “When observing the genesis, family and social events and work spaces continue to prevail. We must continue to expand state efforts, but also individual and collective responsibilities ”, he concluded.
