Gujarat: Second wave has launched a deadly assault on lungs

古吉拉特邦：第二波疫情已经对肺部发动了致命攻击

AHMEDABAD: Prakash Chandra, 59, did not have any symptoms of Covid-19 but got himself tested after his son tested positive. His report came positive. When his doctor insisted for a CT scan after his blood tests revealed high sugar levels and inflammatory markers, it was found that 50% of his lung was involved. His oxygen saturation too had dipped to 85. All this on Day-1 itself. He is now admitted in the hospital with his son whose scan has revealed nearly 60% damage to his lungs by the virus.

艾哈迈达巴德：59岁的Prakash Chandra没有任何新冠症状，但在儿子检测呈阳性后，他自己也进行了检测。他的报告是阳性。当他的血液检测显示血糖水平高和炎症标志物后，他的医生坚持要做CT扫描，结果发现他的肺有50%受损。他的血氧饱和度也降到了85。这一切都发生在第一天。他现在和他儿子一起住进了医院，他儿子的扫描显示，病毒对他的肺部造成了近60%的损害。

Even as the debate on the importance of HRCT rages on after the statement of AIIMS-D director Dr Randeep Guleria that HRCT did not serve any purpose in mild and home isolated Covid-19 patients, city-based radiologists are busy with a high number of infected and suspected patients lining up for high-resolution CT (HRCT) of thorax (chest and lungs) to understand the lung involvement and severity of the infection. Doctors say the CT score of the lungs is hel save many lives, especially in the current wave when the strain seems to be attacking lungs more ferociously than ever.

在全英医学科学院院长Randeep Guleria博士发表声明称，高分辨率CT对轻度和居家隔离的新冠患者没有任何作用后，关于高分辨率CT重要性的辩论仍在激烈进行。城市放射科医生正忙于应对大量的感染和疑似患者，他们正排队接受胸部(胸部和肺部)高分辨率CT (HRCT)检查，以了解肺部的受累情况和感染的严重程度。医生们表示，肺部CT扫描帮助挽救了许多生命，特别是在当前这一波疫情期间，肺部压力似乎比以往任何时候都更严重。

Pulmonologist Dr Rahul Jalan, a city-based pulmonologist, said that in the post-Diwali wave in 2020, the average HRCT score (counted out of 25 based on each segment of lungs) was 6 to 8. “This time, it’s as high as 12 to 14 for average patients. It’s not all – even at the lower score, the patients report hypoxa (deprivation of adequate oxygen supply) this time, pointing at the change in the virus profile,” he said.

肺科医生Rahul Jalan表示，在2020年排灯节后，高分辨率CT平均评分(根据每个肺段计算出25分)为6至8分。他说：“这一次，患者的平均评分高达12到14。这并不是全部——即使在较低的评分中，患者这次也报告了缺氧(缺乏足够的氧气供应)，这表明了病毒的变化。”

“Current strain seems to attack lungs more furiously. More young patients are found to have moderate to severe lung disease compared to earlier waves,” said senior radiologist Dr Hemant Patel.

资深放射科医生Hemant Patel说：“目前的毒株似乎更猛烈地攻击肺部。与早期相比，更多的年轻患者被发现患有中度至重度肺部疾病”

Radiologist Dr Amit Gupta said the average HRCT score has nearly doubled in the patients compared to the last wave Gujarat had seen in November. “Infectivity has increased – from 60% showing lung involvement in 2020, today 80% have lung damage” he said.

放射科医生Amit Gupta博士说，与去年11月古吉拉特邦的最后一波病例相比，患者的高分辨率CT平均评分几乎增加了一倍。他说:“传染性增加了——从2020年的60%显示肺部受累，到如今的80%有肺损伤。”

In this wave, electionjeevi ministers are the most dangerous virus. They don't have common sense that gathering crowds for election rallies will cause covid to spread.

在这一波疫情期间，参加竞选的印度部长是最危险的病毒，他们不知道聚集群众参加选举集会会导致新冠病毒传播。

The second wave was not only because of the pure incompetency shown by Modi and state CM's but also due to the sheer unhygienic practices by the people and their irresponsible behavior. Go to any street in India and you will find filth every where. People spit phlegm everywhere.

第二波疫情不仅是因为莫迪和邦首席部长的无能，也因为人民的不卫生习惯和不负责任的行为。

去印度的任何一条街道，你都会发现到处都是污秽。人们随地吐痰。

Escape from infection but it is very difficult one if you have to go out for the job. Imagine those attending political rallies and coming back with infection is way to destroy own family as family members will get infected sooner or later but no politician and Neta will come to help you.

如果你不得不外出工作，就很难避免感染。想象一下，那些参加集会的人带着病毒回来，这会害得自己家破人亡的，家庭成员迟早会被感染，但没有政客会来帮助你。
