Prof. Kunchev: Rising temperatures can change the picture of diseases  - 1

Covid-19 can hardly be different from a simple infection. The virus does not lead to the need for emergency medical care, which means that it is habituated to humans, is not pathogenic and is one of many respiratory viruses. Neither the adults nor the children had serious problems during the summer. People with weak immunity can have more serious consequences.

This is what the state health inspector Assoc. Dr. Angel Kunchev told NOVA NEWS.

If the rise in temperatures continues, the picture of diseases will also change, the expert said.

Regarding West Nile fever, he indicated the need to cultivate open areas and put screens on windows. Kunchev also explained what the symptoms are, specifying that they are similar to those of other viruses. He added that West Nile fever has a characteristic rash that appears on the third day.

Kunchev said that we managed to deal with whooping cough and measles.

The expert indicated that the flu is expected to occur at the end of the year and the beginning of the next.

He said that at the end of the year, an increase in cases of Hepatitis A, which affects the youth more, is also expected.
