Prof. Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases. Dr. Mehmet Ceyhan made statements about the increase in schools and cases at Haber Global.
Emphasizing that the opening of schools should be met with certain criteria, Ceyhan said, “(USA example) Let’s do 100 thousand tests a day in order to open schools in a safer environment. We have to give exact information and dates. “Let’s open the schools, in which case we close, we look, the approach will not give confidence,” he said.
Citing the criteria in different countries, Ceyhan said, “Some countries define this as ‘R’ value. We have an ‘R’ value above 1. He says I will close when Germany is like this. We need to set certain criteria as we will close it when it reaches over 100 thousand ”.
“There is no chance for cases to decrease without taking additional measures”
Ceyhan, who made determinations about the number of cases, used the following statements:
* It is not important to go from 900 to thousand if it is not important to go from one thousand to 900.
* Apparently there was an incident recently in the cases of the upward trend in Turkey. I always said this work that we cannot take with a thousand cases.
* Healthcare professionals can not bear this burden for such a long time, neither can they carry the economy nor the public.
* Since we did not take any other precautions, which we should have taken, we did not take cases, and additional measures would have been necessary in the period up to one thousand 500’s. This virus has no chance of self-reduction without additional measures.
“It is not a situation that will change the event a lot”
“We need to reduce these numbers to near zero values in a very short time,” said Ceyhan.
* Otherwise, the economy does not work as we want, social life or health system can be implemented. (Today’s inspections) This is important. We have to care.
* It is a measure to increase the compliance rate in some way, but this is not a situation that will change the event much. It will not be permanent.
* In order to be permanent, there are some precautions that can be implemented without curfew without a curfew. Otherwise, we will not be able to change this picture seriously.
