Abstract

Koronavirüs küresel salgını bir zoonoz olarak tüm şiddetiyle devam ederken virüsün insan türüne geçmesine yol açan hayvan (ara konak) kesin olarak belirlenememiştir. Teknolojinin çok ileri düzeyde olduğu çağımızda güvenilirliği düşük bir PCR testi ile hastalığın tanısı konmaya çalışılmaktadır. Bir salgının tanı, tedavi ve kontrolünde izlenecek temel ilkeler yıllarca önce açıkça ortaya konmuştur. Bu prensipler temelinde salgının etyolojisinde farklı bir suş, birlikte bulunan farklı bir ajan patojen veya farklı bir bulaşma yolunun rolü göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Zoonotik enfeksiyonlarda mikrobiyal ajanı taşıyan hayvana maruziyet dışında hayvanlara yapılan aşılar ve aşı yapılan hayvanlara maruziyet durumları değerlendirilmelidir. Geçen yıllarda Çin’de ve birçok ülkede yaşanan çok sayıda domuz salgını nedeni ile ilgili hastalıklar için Çin’de yoğun biçimde aşı geliştirme çalışmaları devam etmektedir. İnsana yakın genetik yapısıyla ve yoğun sürü nüfusu ile domuzların bu salgında vektör olabilecekleri göz önüne alınmalıdır.

A different vision into the coronavirus outbreak: could pigs and its products be the vectors?

Abstract

The animal (intermediate host) from which spilled over human has not been yet defined while Coronavirus infection outbreak has continued with all severity. The diagnosis of the disease is done by a low-reliabled PCR test in this very high technology age. Basic principles for the diagnosis, treatment, and the control of the outbreak was presented many years ago. On the basis of those principles, the roles of a different species and a different pathogen being together or a different transmission route are considered. In addition to the exposure to the sick animals, exposures to the vaccined animals and to the vaccines applied to the animals should be evaluated in zoonotic infections. Researches of vaccine production for related diseases have continued intensely in China because of many swine infection outbreaks in China and many other countries. It should be considered that the pigs in a huge herd may be vectors for that outbreak due to the similarity with human genetics.
