Czego dowiedzieliśmy się o COVID-19 w 2020 roku? 10 hipotez wyjaśniających różnice w zachorowalności i śmiertelności z powodu COVID-19 między krajami
Streszczenie
Pandemia choroby koronawirusowej 2019 jest jednym z najtrudniejszych wyzwań dla współczesnej medycyny i systemów ochrony zdrowia. Od początku jej wybuchu w różnych częściach świata zaobserwowano różnice w zapadalności i śmiertelności. W artykule omówione zostało 10 hipotez, które były tematem dyskusji naukowych i mogą wyjaśniać tę obserwację. Czynniki kulturowe, demograficzne oraz socjologiczne, różnice w systemach opieki zdrowotnej i harmonogramach szczepień, polimorfizm genetyczny mogą stanowić zmienne wpływające na przebieg pandemii w różnych regionach świata. Dalsze badanie tych hipotez może dostarczyć cennych informacji i poszerzyć dostępną wiedzę w tej bezprecedensowej sytuacji epidemiologicznej.
