Covid 19 pnömonisinde evcil hayvanlarla temasın rolü nedir?

Öz

Giriş: Yeni korona virüsünün (COVID-19) insandan insana yayıldığı kabul edilmektedir. Hayvanların COVID-19'un yayılmasında rol oynadığına dair net bir kanıt yoktur. Amaç: Bu çalışmanın konusu evcil hayvan teması ile COVID-19 pnömonisi arasındaki ilişki olup olmadığını ortaya koymaktır. Yöntem: Evcil hayvanlarla temas ortamları olarak; kapalı alan, bahçe, sokak ve iş yeri temas kategorileri oluşturularak anket şeklinde katılımcılara soruldu. Bulgular: Evde evcil hayvanlarla temas eden COVID-19 hastalarının COVID-19 pnömonisi olup olmadığı karşılaştırıldığında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmadı. Tartışma: Kedi ve köpeklerden insanlara bulaşma olasılığı düşük olmasına rağmen COVID-19 kedi ve köpeklere bulaşabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada covid 19 akciğer tutulumları karşılaştırıldığında köpeklerle temas edenlerde herhangi bir fark bulunmazken , Kedilerle açık havada temas edenlerde covid 19 akciğer tutulumunun daha fazla olduğu saptanmıştır Bu durum hastalığın yayılımında daha çok mekanik faktörlerin rol oynayabileceğini düşündürmektedir.

What is the role of contact with animals in covid 19 pneumonia?

Öz

Introduction: The novel corona virus (COVID-19) is considered to spread from person to person. There is no clear evidence that animals play a role in the spread of COVID-19. Objectives: The subject of this study was the correlation between pet contact and COVID-19 pneumonia. Patients and Methods: The participants were questioned by creating contact categories of indoor, garden, street and workplace as contact environments with pets. Results: No statistically significant correlation was found when the COVID-19 patients who came into contact with pets in the home were compared whether they had COVID-19 pneumonia or not. Discussion: Despite the fact that the probability of spread to humans from cats and dogs is low, COVID-19 can be spread to cats and dogs. In this study, it was detected that while those who came into contact with dogs were not different from those who were in contact with dogs, they had more lung involvement than those who had outdoor contact, which suggests that various mechanisms may play a role in virus spread.
