Specialist in Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology at Private Denizli Egekent Hospital, Dr. Ramazan Kenan Arıcan, said, “There has been another increase in coronavirus cases. This makes people anxious about whether there will be another lockdown.”
After the decline in cases due to the high vaccination rate and the lifting of most precautions, the number of positive coronavirus cases has begun to rise again, causing public concern. With the latest developments, many questions have arisen in people’s minds. As the number of coronavirus cases increases, the concern that precautions may be reintroduced has become a major topic of discussion.
Commenting on the course of the disease, Dr. Ramazan Kenan Arıcan, Specialist in Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology, addressed questions about the coronavirus. He pointed out that although the severity of the disease has decreased, people should not become complacent. Dr. Arıcan said, “There has been an increase in the course of the disease. However, its severity has declined. We cannot behave as if the disease is over just because its severity has lessened. We must not become complacent. Corona is still present in our lives and continues to pose a threat. By taking precautions, we must protect ourselves and our loved ones.”
“It is necessary to get the booster dose”
Talking about the precautions that should be taken against the increasing number of cases, Dr. Ramazan Kenan Arıcan emphasized the importance of getting the booster dose of the vaccine. He gave the following advice:
“Attention should always be paid to hygiene, hands should be washed frequently, shared use of personal items should be avoided, crowded environments should be avoided as much as possible, and care should be taken to use masks. Our citizens can take precautions against the coronavirus by getting their booster doses.”
