Not so long ago we talked , or rather of its serious prejudice to the minds of the people. Today I was wondering what percentage of people in the world adhere to recommended antiviral measures. For example, in Russia more recently, these measures have tightened by typing masono-glove mode. What about other countries such as the USA, which beats all records? Is their position solely catastrophic health disadvantage, or behind it something more? Let's deal.
Let's Start with the good: according to one of the major players in the field are free TextNow , users have spent more than 450 million minutes talking on the phone in the first full month of self-isolation, March. Though it, probably, was not such a shocking thing, it's 36% more than in the previous month, which is logical, and is 313 000 days, 850 years of cumulative time talking on the phone. Text messages also increased, jumping by 35% to nearly billion.
Says SEO TextNow Derek ting:
People strive for personal connections during social distancing, and this has led to a significant increase in activity on our platform over the last couple of months. During the quarantine, there was a surge of phone calls, and I think it will continue indefinitely.
It's a positive trend. And indiscriminate rejection of the recommendations of the doctors there. But why, in this case, 45% of Americans refuse to wear a mask? Is about why this is so. Someone will say that because of American independence and resistance to authority, some will say it's just ignorance. At least one doctor has a different opinion.
According to head of the Department of infectious diseases, University hospital Saint Peter's in new Brunswick, new Jersey, Dr. Henry Thinned:
I think people are hesitant to wear masks because of our culture, people are accustomed to using their faces to Express emotions and communicate. Quarantine for them — this is a big change. Culture in Asia, where people are more closed and disciplined, have had the best results during the pandemic.
take care first your loved ones!
Interesting turns. America's smiling, so not ready to give up this addiction to constant communication and joie de vivre. And in Russia, if you refer to the emotions, the situation is slightly different. Russian on the street — it is not an ordinary citizen, it is warrior. He struggles with the surrounding reality. He was born to fight. He got up with a temperature of 38 drinking Fervex and scratched to work, and then him a mask from a virus that's still not all takes. It becomes a competition. All will take, but I won't go in.
In fact, we are with America — the antipodes. The source of our Americans of disobedience are emotions, but different, and even more than Russian pride. But how to get people to wear masks. I think you just need to explain why this is necessary. Not in the TV propaganda, and human logic.
As he continued his speech, Thinned:
The more people wearing masks in public, the less opportunity for the spread of the virus. A large part of the distribution from asymptomatic hosts, so the disguise even without symptoms is still protective. Mask reduces the amount of virus that can spread from person to person, and it's better than not wearing a mask. Wearing a mask, you can protect the people around you, family, friends and people around. Not all healthy, and many people have diseases or weak immune system. If we all want to return to "normal life", to wear a mask — is one of the ways
Study after Study shows that masks can help. One study showed that masks help when someone is coughing next to you that leads to the release of up to 3000 droplets, which can be the cause of your infection. Another study showed that the spread of the virus is mainly from the carriers with immunity, and not ill.
Allergies are predisposed to transmission of viral diseases much greater than normal people
In addition, the spring — it's time for Allergy sufferers. The environment favors the sneezing and Caslano. Infected allergies can sneeze near you and infect you with a virus. Yes, even if it was half an hour ago. Imagine that a man sneezed and closed his mouth with his hand. Took a look at a jar of your favorite yogurt, hold in your hand and put it back. You took this to the Bank, scratched his face and got infected. Maybe you have immunity. And your children, younger siblings, the older generation?
I Want to ask you how Russian: wear a mask and gloves is not shameful. Russian — a strong nation, but strength is not only how not to get sick yourself, force in the protection of the weak. If you are really a warrior, you protect your loved ones. I do what to promote, and you?

Wear the mask and gloves now required!
