Vusal Gasimli: "Special quarantine decreases speed of spread of pandemics"

Special quarantine decreases speed of spread of the pandemics. That is why requirements of the special quarantine should be appproached carefully and followed, said Executive Director of the Center for Analysis of Economic Reforms and Communication Vusal Gasimli while speaking on great importance of the special quarantine regime, ONA reports.

He said the worldwide mathematical modelling shows that if strict isolation and hygiene measures are not taken, one person infected with coronavirus infects 2-3 persons on average: "The high speed of spread of coronavirus in some countries is associated just with this factor. In China, the epidemic expanded its area of spreading twice by every 6.4 days at the initial phase. But the mathematical modelling shows that the reduction of the infection rate by 25-50% can significantly reduce the spread of the disease. And the reduction of the infection rate by over 63% can cause slowdown of the pandemic. And the social isolation is the main precondition for reduction of infection rate, and the strict compliance with special quarantine rules in Azerbaijan is the social responsibility of each of us. Only the social isolation can allow us to prevent infection and keep under control the situation”.
