アイルランド発(datelined Ireland): 27 countries have confirmed

2020-02-03 17:58:28 | 日記
2020年2月3日(Mon.) 情報は時々刻々と変わっています。その意味では既に古い情報になっているかも知れません。しかし、アナログ情報で視覚に訴える内容は、直感的に理解し易いものです。

一方で、中国湖北省での医療実態や状況把握は混乱に陥っていると指摘する筋もあり、中国から伝わってくる感染者に関わる数値情報等は、どこまで信じて良いのかわかりません。しかし、緊急事態であることは間違いないことです。日本も厳格な規制等で水際作戦を強化しないと、オリンピック開催も危ぶまれることになるでしょう。2003年のSARSの時は、終息に7〜8ヶ月は要しましたし、それを鑑みると今回の事態は、既にSARSの時を上回っている事実がありますので、この7月や8月の終息は困難ではないかと予測されます。
優柔不断な思考では、被害を拡大させる恐れが高まります。思い切って前例のない1年先延ばし対策を打ち出すのが望ましいように思えます。

発生源の湖北省では、新規の病院(1,000床)も運用開始と伝えられていますが、数値を見る限りは、桁違いの蔓延になっていますので対応が難しい状況になっているように思われます。

日本も、優柔不断な思考ではなく、安全を最優先した緊急施策を実施すべきでしょう。
