Titolo: Covid, fatti rilevati dopo un anno di pandemia

Pare sia un virus studiato dall'Inps per le case di riposo.
 
Overview
Lethality: According to the latest immunological studies, the overall 
infection fatality rate (IFR) of covid-19 in the general population is 
about 0.1% to 0.5% in most countries, which is most closely comparable 
to the medium influenza pandemics of 1936, 1957 and 1968.
Treatment: For people at high risk or high exposure, early or 
prophylactic treatment is essential to prevent progression of the 
disease. According to numerous international studies, early outpatient 
treatment of covid may reduce hospitalizations and deaths by about 75%.
Age profile: The median age of covid deaths is over 80 years in most 
Western countries (78 in the US) and about 5% of the deceased had no 
serious preconditions. The age and risk profile of covid mortality is 
therefore comparable to normal mortality, but increases it 
proportionally.
Nursing homes: In many Western countries, about 50% of all covid deaths 
have occurred in nursing homes, which require targeted and humane 
protection. In some cases, care home residents died not from the 
coronavirus, but from weeks of stress and isolation.
Excess mortality: In most Western countries, the pandemic increased 
mortality by 5% to 20% in 2020. Up to 30% of the additional deaths were 
caused not by covid, but by indirect effects of the pandemic and 
lockdowns (e.g. fewer treatments of cancer and heart attack patients).
Antibodies: By the end of 2020, antibody seroprevalence was between 10% 
and 30% of the population in most Western countries. At seroprevalence 
levels above 30%, a significant decrease in the infection rate was 
observed in many regions.
Symptoms: Up to 40% of all infected persons show no symptoms. Overall, 
about 95% of all people develop at most mild or moderate symptoms and 
do not require hospitalization. Early outpatient treatment may 
significantly reduce hospitalizations.
Long covid: About 10% of symptomatic people experience post-acute or 
long covid, i.e. symptoms and exhaustion that last for several weeks or 
months. Long covid may also affect younger and previously healthy 
people whose initial course of disease was rather mild.
Transmission: According to current knowledge, the main routes of 
transmission of the virus are indoor aerosols and droplets produced 
when speaking or coughing, while outdoor aerosols as well as most 
object surfaces appear to play a minor role. The coronavirus season in 
the northern hemisphere lasts from about November to April.
Masks: There is still little to no scientific evidence for the 
effectiveness of cloth face masks in the general population, and the 
introduction of mandatory masks couldn’t contain or slow the epidemic 
in most countries. If used improperly, masks may increase the risk of 
infection.
Children and schools: In contrast to influenza, the risk of disease and 
transmission in children is rather low in the case of covid. There was 
and is therefore no medical reason for the closure of elementary 
schools or other measures specifically aimed at children.
Contact tracing: A WHO study of 2019 on measures against influenza 
pandemics concluded that from a medical perspective, contact tracing is 
“not recommended in any circumstances”. Contact tracing apps on cell 
phones have also proven ineffective in most countries.
PCR tests: The highly sensitive PCR test kits may in some cases produce 
false positive or false negative results or react to non-infectious 
virus fragments from a previous infection. In this regard, the 
so-called cycle threshold or ct value is an important parameter.
Virus mutations: Similar to influenza viruses, mutations occur 
frequently in coronaviruses. Most of these mutations are insignificant, 
but some of them may increase the transmissibility, virulence or immune 
evasion of the virus to some extent.
Lockdowns: In contrast to early border controls, lockdowns have had no 
significant effect on the pandemic. According to the UN, lockdowns may 
put the livelihood of 1.6 billion people at acute risk and may push an 
additional 150 million children into poverty.
Sweden: In Sweden, covid mortality in 2020, without a lockdown, was 
comparable to a strong influenza season and close to the EU average. 
About 50% of Swedish deaths occurred in nursing facilities and the 
median age of Swedish covid deaths was about 84 years.
Vaccines: Real-world studies have shown high vaccine effectiveness in 
people up to 70 years of age. In some cases, serious adverse events or 
sudden deaths have been reported after covid vaccinations. The 
long-term safety and effectiveness of covid vaccines remains unknown.
Media: The reporting of many media has been unprofessional, has 
increased fear and panic in the population and has led to a hundredfold 
overestimation of the lethality of the coronavirus. Some media even 
used manipulative pictures and videos to dramatize the situation.
Virus origin: The origin of the new coronavirus remains unknown, but 
the best evidence currently points to a covid-like pneumonia incident 
in a Chinese mine in 2012, whose virus samples were collected, stored 
and researched by the Virology Institute in Wuhan (WIV).
Surveillance: NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden warned that the 
coronavirus pandemic may be used to expand global surveillance. Many 
governments have restricted fundamental rights of their citizens and 
announced plans to introduce digital biometric vaccine passports.
