Jakarta, Beritasatu.com – The number of positive cases of Covid-19 in Indonesia has exceeded 350,000, and has claimed more than 12,300 lives. However, the Head of the Corona Research Team and Vaccine Formulation from the Professor Nidom Foundation (PNF), Prof. Dr. Chairul Anwar Nidom, said that the public is expected to remain vigilant without having to hate the situation.
According to him, the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is famously known as Covid-19, is also a living being that also has the instinct to survive. Thus, in order to replicate or reproduce itself, viruses usually need a host.
“Actually, the virus does not kill humans, but the human body is weak, so when the virus is infected, it ends up getting sick and becoming a victim. If humans were strong, they would endure anything along with everything in this world. So it is a balance between viruses, humans and the environment, “he explained in an online discussion on the Jaya Suprana Show channel, Friday (16/10/2020).
Having researched the virus for years, he considers Covid-19 to be an ingenious and unique virus. According to him, Covid-19 is not a virus that can kill directly, but has the skills to transmit to humans quickly.
One of the causes of human death, he continued, was due to the factor of immunity from humans themselves. Usually humans have congenital diseases such as high sugar levels, cholesterol, and other diseases. So that when Covid-19 stuck, it made humans weaker.
“There is a conceptual order in nature. Give each other, and ask. Similar to the Covid virus, it only wants to stick and do this (replication), yes what we have to do is close the holes that our virus will enter. For this reason, the key to dealing with Covid is masks, not vaccines, “he said.
According to him, the certified mask is proven to be able to cover the incoming virus. So, the virus will go on air and become inactive again. So the use of vaccines, people are used not to get rid of the virus, but to suppress people so that people don’t get sick when they have Covid-19 in their bodies. The virus will still be around the community, so vaccinations must be carried out continuously.
“This virus is transmitted from droplet droplets that are released in the air. It’s a mechanic, so just cover it with a standard mask. So people who have the virus do not pass the virus because they are caught in a mask, and people who use a mask if they are in the air will not be inhaled. It’s over there the transmission of this virus, “he said.
