(Washington Composite Electric) The Bayeng government in the United States has established a "epidemic innovation work group" to prepare for the crown virus and other popular threats to deal with future mutationEssenceWith the surge in U.S. cases in Omikon's variables, the American Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also recommends that the public uses a stronger mask.
Regarding the task of "Epidemic Real Estate Working Group", Bloomberg quoted people familiar with the matter and said that the group consisting of the White House Science and Technology Policy Office will be concentrated in developing vaccines, treatment methods, diagnostic testing and other tools in order to appearNew viruses, or in the future, can be prepared when biological threats.
Unlike the special working group of the White House Coronatte Virus, the new group will not focus on the daily epidemic or Omikon's response, nor does it deal with things such as vaccine distribution, virus testing and treatment methods.The new group will focus on planning a plan, and the new variant virus and other threats that may occur within six months to two years will be prepared.
US health officials warn that there will be new variant strains that will appear, and the authorities have to prepare for a threat.
In response to the current Omir Rong's epidemic, the principle of revising and guiding the guidance of the American Disease Control and Prevention Center (CDC) to clarify its position on various masks and acknowledge the most commonly worn cloth system.Mask, protection is not stronger than medical masks such as surgery.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that people wear the "strongest protective" mask
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention is therefore suggested that people wear the "most protective" mask.The guidance principles are the most protected. The weakest protection capacity is the cloth mask.But the center did not say that people should choose N95 and other masks.
The Center for Disease Control also added: "Wearing a mask is an important public health tool to prevent the spread of crown disease ... wearing a mask is always better than not wearing a mask."Scientific arguments about wearing masks include the knowledge we have in the past two years. "
The previous update was previously updated in September last year. At that time, the U.S. government encouraged the public to wear public transportation, take care of patients, or wear N95 and other protective masks.Essence
However, the supplier of medical supplies pointed out that although there is no shortage of N95 masks at present, it is still difficult to cope with the sudden surge in demand. The authorities encourage extensive use that may cause people to accumulate or fake products.
Although the study shows that the infection caused by Omikon is lighter than the previous strains, the hospital has been crowded with a large number of patients.In addition, fast detection agents have been in short supply, and enterprises have caused operations to be disturbed due to their infected employees.
U.S. President Biden announced on Thursday that the federal government plans to provide Americans with "high -quality masks" including N95 for free.The White House said the federal government reserves more than 750 million N95 masks.The White House also announced on Friday that the government will provide 500 million test agents for free this month.
The epidemic in New York and some big cities have begun to slow down, but the average new cases in the country are still rising, with more than 750,000 new cases every day.The number of crown diseases in the United States is the world's largest, about 850,000. Omikon's high infection rate and good people refusing to vaccine are the factor in the heating of the epidemic.Worried about the virus spread in the classroom, Boston and Chicago had hundreds of students to demonstrate on the street and asked the school to change to a long -range learning.
