He said that in February this year, Mark Lipstich, a Professor of Epidemiology at the Harvard University in the United States, revealed that the coronavirus disease could attack 70% of the world's population. Similarly, an article published in the leading British newspaper, The Guardian, in February also claimed that 60% of the world's population could be infected with the coronavirus.
He shared these views while talking at the MAJU faculty program. He also dismissed the impression that a large number of deaths were being reported as a result of the coronavirus infection. In fact, the death rate resulting from the coronavirus infection was less than 1%, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), while the number of deaths resulting from diseases such as typhoid and dengue was approximately 50%.
Dr Kamran said that in the current situation, it is important to use sanitizer regularly and to wear masks compulsorily in order to prevent the spread of coronavirus disease.
