slowing the spread of the epidemic so that the peak number of people requiring care at a time is reduced, and the health care system does not exceed its capacity
Liikmesriikide kehtestatud piiravad meetmed on olnud vajalikud epideemia leviku aeglustamiseks ja tervishoiusüsteemidele avalduva surve leevendamiseks („kõvera tasandamine“). Need meetmed põhinevad olemasoleval teabel haiguse epidemioloogia iseärasuste kohta ja nende kehtestamisel on järgitud ettevaatusprintsiipi. Need on võimaldanud võita väärtuslikku aega liikmesriikide tervishoiusüsteemide ettevalmistamiseks, selliste hädavajalike toodete nagu isikukaitsevahendite, laboriseadmete ja hingamisaparaatide hankimiseks (ka ELi tasandil) ning vaktsiinide väljatöötamise ja ravivõimaluste uurimiseks tehtava töö alustamiseks.
WHO continues to call on all countries to implement a comprehensive approach, with the aim of slowing down transmission and flattening the curve.
The restrictive measures introduced by Member States have been necessary to delay the spread of the epidemic and alleviate pressure on health care systems (‘flattening the curve’).
The lockdowns that many nations are enduring are a short-term strategy to reduce the average number of subsequent infections each covid-19 case causes, in order to stop the rate of infections increasing exponentially. This is known as “flattening the curve”. The approach is intended to prevent hospitals being overwhelmed, which should lessen the death count. It also buys time to develop new treatments and better understand the infection.
Because a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 is not expected to become available until 2021 at the earliest, a key part of managing the COVID-19 pandemic is trying to decrease the epidemic peak, known as flattening the epidemic curve.
This helps decrease the risk of health services being overwhelmed and provides more time for a vaccine and treatment to be developed.
