Njengoba i-Utah kanye nezwe lonke bebhekene namacala akhulayo e-COVID-19, ukusesha kwe-Google “kwemaski ye-omicron engcono kakhulu” kuyaqhubeka nokukhuphuka.Umbuzo uyabuya: Iyiphi imaski enikeza isivikelo esikhulu?
Lapho bekhetha imaskhi engcono kakhulu ye-anti-omicron, abathengi bavame ukuqhathanisa imaski yendwangu namamaski okuhlinzwa, kanye nama-N95 kanye ne-KN95 respirators.
Inkundla yezempilo yomhlaba wonke i-Patient Knowhow iklelise izici ezinhlanu zamaski okufanele abathengi bazi, futhi yabiza “ukuhlunga okuphezulu” njengesibaluli semaski esibalulekile, esilandelwa ukufaneleka, ukuqina, ukuphefumula kanye nokulawula ikhwalithi.
Ngokusekelwe ocwaningweni olukhona, sizoxoxa ngokuthi imaski yendwangu, imaski yokuhlinza, nama-N95 respirators kungena kanjani esigabeni ngasinye.Ngakho-ke, kuye ngokukhetha kwakho, lesi sihloko sizokusiza ukuthi uthole imaski yobuso engcono kakhulu yokulwa ne-omicron.
Ukuhlunga: Ngokusho kwe-US Food and Drug Administration, "ama-N95 respirators namamaski okuhlinzwa ayizibonelo zemishini yokuzivikela eklanyelwe ukuvikela oyigqokile ezinhlayiyeni noma oketshezini olungcolisa ubuso."yakhelwe ukufeza ukuhlunga okusebenzayo kwezinhlayiya ezihamba emoyeni. "
Ukuqina: Ama-N95 respirators aklanyelwe ukusetshenziswa kanye.Ukuhlanza izinto zangaphandle kungase kuthinte amandla okuhlunga e-N95.
Ukungena komoya: Ukungena komoya kukalwa ngokumelana nokuphefumula.I-MakerMask.org, inhlangano yamavolontiya eyenza ucwaningo ngezinto zokwakha nemaski, ihlole izinto ezimbili zamaski.Bathole ukuthi inhlanganisela ye-spunbond polypropylene nokotini ayizange isebenze kahle ekuhlolweni kokuphefumula njenge-polypropylene iyodwa.
Ukulawulwa Kwekhwalithi: Isikhungo Sikazwelonke Sokuphepha Nezempilo Emsebenzini se-CDC (NIOSH) silawula ama-N95 respirators.I-ejensi ihlola ama-respirators ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ayahlangabezana namazinga ezempilo omphakathi.Isiphefumulo se-N95 esigunyazwe i-NIOSH singasho ukuthi sisebenza kahle ngo-95% (noma singcono) (ngamanye amazwi, sivimba u-95% wezinhlayiya ezingewona amafutha atholakala emoyeni).Abathengi bazobona lesi silinganiso ebhokisini noma esikhwameni semishini yokuphefumula futhi, kwezinye izimo, nasemshinini wokuphefumula ngokwawo.
Ukuhlunga: I-FDA ichaza imaski yokuhlinzwa ngokuthi “izinto ezixegayo, ezilahlwayo” ezisebenza njengesithiyo phakathi komuntu ogqoke imaskhi kanye nezinto ezingaba ukungcola.Amamaski okuhlinzwa angase ahlangabezane noma angahlangani namazinga okuvimbela uketshezi noma ukusebenza kahle kokuhlunga.Amamaski okuhlinzwa awahlungi izinhlayiya ezikhishwa ngokukhwehlela noma ukuthimula.
I-Fit: Ngokusho kwe-FDA, "Amamaski okuhlinzwa awanikezi isivikelo esiphelele kuma-bacteria nokunye ukungcola ngenxa yophawu oluxekethile phakathi kobuso bemaski nobuso."
Ukuphefumula: I-FixTheMask, ingxenye ye-Medium, iqhathanise imaski yokuhlinzwa namamaski endwangu.Ucwaningo selukhombisile ukuthi imaski yendwangu ngokuvamile isebenza kangcono kunamaski okuhlinzwa ekuhlolweni kokuphefumula.
Ngaleso sikhathi, abacwaningi base-Italy baqhathanise imaski engu-120 futhi bathola ukuthi “izifihla-buso ezenziwe okungenani ngezingqimba ezintathu ze-polypropylene engalukwanga ye-spunbond-meltblown-spunbond zisebenze kahle kakhulu, zinikeza ukuphefumula okuhle nokusebenza kahle kokuhlunga.”Izikhungo Zezempilo Zikazwelonke.
Ukulawulwa Kwekhwalithi: I-FDA ayiwalawuli imaski yokuhlinzwa ehloselwe ukusetshenziswa umphakathi (hhayi ukusetshenziswa kwezokwelapha).
Ukuhlunga: Ucwaningo olwenziwe yi-American Chemical Society lunikeze ukubuyekezwa okuxubile mayelana namakhono okuhlunga amamaski endwangu.Sekukonke, ucwaningo luthole ukuthi "izifihla-buso zendwangu zisebenza kangcono lapho ukuminyana kwe-weave (okungukuthi, inani lentambo) liphezulu."ukwanda.
Abacwaningi abavela e-University of Minnesota's Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy bacaphune izifundo zabo zaselabhorethri futhi baphetha ngokuthi imaski yendwangu “isebenza ngempumelelo ngokumelene nezinhlayiya ezincane eziphefumulayo, abakholelwa ukuthi ziyimbangela enkulu (yokusabalala kwe-COVID-19).”mfushane.19).
I-Fit: Ucwaningo oluvela e-American Chemical Society lubonise ukuthi izikhala kumamaski endwangu “(ezibangelwa ukulingana okungafanele kwemaski) zinganciphisa ukusebenza kahle kokuhlunga ngamaphesenti angaphezu kuka-60%.
Ukuqina: ICenters for Disease Control and Prevention incoma ukuthi kuphinde kusetshenziswe imaski yendwangu ngemva kokungcola, “okungcono ngokuyigeza ngamanzi ashisayo nensipho.”nemisebe ye-UV noma ukushisa okomile.”
Ukuphefumula: Okungenani ukuhlolwa okukodwa okuqhathanisa ukuphefumula kwezinhlobo ezahlukene zamamaski kutholwe ukuthi “izifihla-buso eziyisisekelo yizona eziphefumula kalula.”"Ukumelana nokuhogela umoya kwala maski bekuphansi kakhulu kunokwamaski anezendlalelo zokuhlunga ezengeziwe noma inhlanganisela yazo, okubandakanya i-N95," kubhala ababhali bocwaningo.
Ukulawulwa Kwekhwalithi: Kunezinhlobonhlobo eziningi zamamaski amashidi emakethe namuhla, futhi akukho ukufana ohlotsheni lwempahla esetshenziswayo noma indlela akhiwe ngayo.Ukulawulwa kwekhwalithi yamamaski endwangu cishe akukho ngenxa yokuntuleka kwamazinga kazwelonke noma amazwe ngamazwe.
I-CDC ithi kukhona imaski eyi-N95 mbumbulu emakethe yabathengi.Uma ucabanga ukuthi imaskhi engcono kakhulu yokulwa nama-omicrons iyi-N95 respirator, ungakhohliswa.Isixhumi sokuphefumula ngokwaso noma ibhokisi laso kufanele libhalwe noma ligxivizwe nge-ASTM noma imvume ye-NIOSH.
I-ASTM yinhlangano yamazwe ngamazwe ebeka amazinga.Ngokusho kwe-CDC, i-ASTM ithuthukise indinganiso yokumboza ubuso ukuze "isungule isethi efanayo yezindlela zokuhlola kanye namazinga okusebenza ezinhlobonhlobo zezimbobo zobuso ezivikelayo abathengi abangakhetha kuzo manje."
Izinga lizokwenza kube lula kubathengi ukuqhathanisa imaski futhi benze izinqumo ezinolwazi kakhulu ngokuzethemba.Inhlangano ihlinzeka ngezilinganiso ezintathu zamamaski obuso.Amamaski e-ASTM Level 3 avikela ogqokile ezinhlayiyeni ezihamba emoyeni.
I-National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) iyisikhungo socwaningo se-CDC.Le nhlangano yasungulwa ngaphansi kwe-Occupational Safety and Health Act 1970 ngenhloso eshiwo yokwenza ucwaningo lokunciphisa ukugula kwabasebenzi nokuthuthukisa inhlalakahle yabasebenzi.
I-ejensi yengamele ukunikezwa kwezitifiketi zokuphefumula futhi ithi ama-respirators agunyazwe yi-NIOSH angakwazi ukuhlunga okungenani i-95% yezinhlayiya ezihamba emoyeni.
Ngesikhathi sokushicilela, iCenters for Disease Control and Prevention ibingakanqumi ukuthi ukwahluka kwe-omicron kwakusabalala ngokushesha kangakanani.Lesi sikhungo sithi sisebenzisana nabalingani bomhlaba wonke ukuqoqa nokufunda amasampula.Baphinde babika ukuthi ukuhlola kwesayensi kwase kuqalile.
Kodwa-ke, ucwaningo olungabuyekeziwe kontanga, oluhlanganiswe nedatha evela eMnyangweni Wezempilo wase-Salt Lake County kanye noMnyango Wezempilo wase-Utah, luncike kakhulu ekwahlukeni kwe-omicron okubangela iningi lamacala amasha.
Okuhlukile okuchazwe kamuva nje kokukhathazeka, okwaziwa nge-Omicron (B.1.1.529), kusakazeke ngokushesha emhlabeni wonke futhi manje kuwumthwalo wemfanelo weningi lamacala e-COVID-19 emazweni amaningi.Ngenxa yokuthi i-Omicron isanda kuqashelwa, kunezikhala eziningi zolwazi mayelana ne-epidemiology yayo, ubukhali bomtholampilo, kanye nenkambo.Ucwaningo olunzulu lokulandelana kofuzo lwe-SARS-CoV-2 eHouston Methodist Health System lwathola ukuthi kusukela ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba 2021 kuya kuDisemba 20, 2021, iziguli ezinezimpawu eziyi-1,313 zangenwa igciwane le-Omicron.Inani le-Omicron lenyuke ngokushesha emasontweni amathathu nje, okwenza ama-90% eziguli angenwe yigciwane le-Omicron.Amacala amasha e-Covid-19.“
I-Wall Street Journal yabika ucwaningo olwenziwa eHong Kong (olungakabuyekezwa ontanga) oluthole ukuthi “i-omicron ingena futhi iphindaphindeke ngokushesha izikhathi ezingama-70 kune-delta esepheshaneni lokuphefumula futhi ayisebenzi kahle emaphashini.”
I-coronavirus entsha, i-COVID-19, ingadluliselwa isuka kumuntu iye komunye, njengomkhuhlane ovamile nomkhuhlane.Ngakho, ukuyivimbela ukuthi ingasakazeki:
