Scientific News
A Covid-19 Vaccine for when ?
Research labs around the world are racing against the clock to find a vaccine against the Covid-19 coronavirus. The World Health Organization (WHO) believes that the development of a vaccine is necessary to stop the spread of Covid-19

In the latest WHO list, 70 vaccines are under study, 3 of which are promising. Several of them are already in clinical trials, that is to say in the human test phase, as in China and the USA.

Research around the world is very fast, some researchers are talking about the availability of a vaccine in the fall of 2020, others in 2021 at least.

Over 80% of people have no symptoms
Based on the latest information from the scientific community: between 80% and 85% of those who contract Covid-19 have no symptoms, or some very mild and often mistaken for other viral infections. Between 15% and 17% of infected people would need medical assistance, whether it be a drug treatment or a short assistance linked to respiratory problems and between 3% and 5% would need a hospitalization to face the symptoms caused by Covid-19 in combination with other comorbidity factors.

SYMPTOMS
Common symptoms of Covid-19 coronavirus: cough, fever and extreme fatigue. Some people may also have more severe symptoms, such as difficulty breathing or pneumonia. On average, symptoms of COVID-19 usually develop 5 to 7 days after infection. In some infrequent cases, they may appear only on the 12th day.

Tips
Basic advice protect yourself and avoid the spread of Covid-19 as much as possible, in case of introduction in Haiti :

  • Always cough or sneeze into your sleeves or elbow, never on the other person's face or in your hands;
  • Use tissues to wipe your hands or face and then throw them in the trash and then wash your hands;
  • Wash your hands frequently with soap or alcoholic water. You can also use a "sanitizer";
  • Avoid close contact with someone with flu-like illness and invite them to seek treatment;
  • Avoid contact with vulnerable people if you are sick;
  • Avoid greetings like handshakes and kisses;
  • Avoid touching your nose, eyes and mouth;
  • Avoid large gatherings as much as possible;
