All right, so we're going to record this video and answer piece by piece so that it makes it a little more simple.
00:07
So i'll start with the first question.
00:09
Can you think of what factors contributed to the high rates of sars transmission among hospital workers? so i'm going to be doing mostly a verbal explanation here because it's hard to write out exactly what i'm thinking.
00:21
So i recommend listening more to my voice than what i'm writing down.
00:26
But i'd say the primary reason that transmission is so high, in hospital workers is that there's constant exposure to sick patients.
00:37
And since sars is transmitted through the air as well as through bodily fluids and germs, it's easily contracted when it's seen at such high levels.
00:45
And most people in a hospital setting are sick to some degree.
00:49
So they're coughing and sneezing, spreading their germs more than the average person.
00:53
So the answer here is germy.
01:01
Second question um what precautions would you take in caring for sars patients um the biggest thing here is to reduce spread of germs whether this means masks washing your hands things like this next how is covid -19 similar to sars um they are similar in the way that they are spread so they both spread through respiratory droplets and this is most commonly produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
02:11
Droplets can spread or droplets break can happen when the cough or the sneeze is propelled a short distance or can travel through the air because these are airborne viruses.
02:23
And yeah, so essentially the main way that they're similar is the way that they are spread.
02:31
Next, the structure of the covid -19 virus.
02:34
All right, so it contains a nido virus unique and terminal extension domain, which adopts a nodivirus rdrp -associated nucleot tidal transferase, which is known as niran structure, and a right -hand rna -dependent rna polymerase domain in the c terminal, and these two domains are connected by an interface domain.
02:58
So essentially, it looks like this...
