AFTER HEALTH MINISTER, A MEMBER OF THE SCIENTIFIC COUNCIL ALSO RAISED THE UNMASKED LIFE

While the number of cases and deaths peaked, a member of the Turkish Scientific Committee after the Minister of Health in Ankara made statements about the use of masks. Prof. Dr. said, “There will be a mask in less crowded places…” said.

Dean of Gazi University Faculty of Medicine, Head of the Department of Public Health and Member of the Scientific Council Prof. Dr.said that in some countries, some practices have been implemented that will comfort the community during the corona virus process.

“However, it is necessary to know that these countries are the ones that have reached 80 percent levels in vaccination. Given that vaccination is on its way to high levels at the stage we are at, and that people have learned to fight the corona virus, there are approaches to removing the mask in the world, provided that caution is exercised in a closed environment. There are opinions that masks may not be worn in open areas, especially for vaccinated individuals,” he said.

IT’S MORE ACCURATE TO SEE THE FIGURES AND MAKE AN ASSESSMENT

Prof. Dr. expressing that it is necessary to know where the mask should be worn, said as follows:

“The process might go in a direction I’m thinking, This is my personal opinion; too crowded environments, for example, public transport, bus, plane trips, Cinema, Theater in places such as people wearing masks to protect themselves and their environment and they can both still continued to plague it is difficult to say.

Besides, let’s say we went to a place that was less crowded, where it seems that people can walk around without a mask. Of course, it will be more correct to see the figures, the course and evaluate them accordingly in order to make a decision on them.

Especially we see it abroad; in Japan, Korea, here people can go to a public transport, go to a medical institution, go to a very crowded tax office, go to a bank, where they can wear a mask, I think that the process can progress to such a process.”

.
I THINK THE PROCESS WILL BE RELAXED WITH THE SUMMER

Prof. Dr. continued as follows:

“With the increase in the full dose of vaccination, it is possible to say whether there may be flexibility in places where unmasked entry is prohibited. it is necessary to evaluate 3 things together; one should evaluate the percentage of vaccination, whether there will already be a virus with high transmission, lethality, and dec long the mask is worn together.

I think that the process can be more relaxed with the arrival of a little more summer, provided that it changes according to the circumstances. In summer, closed places are more ventilated, closed places are not left much, it is possible to say that this will contribute to the process, and the action of not wearing a mask will be increasingly taking place in open areas.”

Aegean University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Infectious Diseases, Faculty Member Prof. Dr. “It is premature for a decision on the complete removal of masks,” said of the Scientific Council’s meeting next week. At least, the data in Izmir suggest this,” he said.

Prof. Dr. said that the issue of when the masks will be released will be discussed at the Scientific Council meeting next week. Expressing that it is premature for the decision on the complete removal of masks, Sipahi said, “Our vaccination rate is around 62 percent nationwide. There is a high probability that the pandemic will become quite ineffective if close to 90 percent of the population has been vaccinated or has had the disease. Data on the proportion of those who have had the disease and vaccinated are available at the Ministry of Health in Turkey. We, judging by our own data, think that it is premature to make such a decision as the complete removal of masks. At least, the data in Izmir suggest this. I can’t comment on how the data is in the rest of the country,” he said.
