The Councilor for Health and Public Health of the City Council of Cieza rejects and asks "to ignore", for lacking scientific rigor, to whom, like the president of UCAM, José Luis Mendoza, assures that consuming vitamin C in "large doses" can end with the Covid-19.According to a statement, "the Ministry of Health highlighted last Thursday a flattening of the contagion curve by Covid-19 and predicted a decrease in the incidence of coronavirus positives for this week.
However, although judging by the latest data It seems that the Region is heading in that direction, Cieza suffered a slight increase in cases last Saturday to stand at 202 positives.Of the total, 108 depend on the Cieza Este Health Center and 94 from the West.
By cumulative incidence per 100,000 inhabitants In the last seven days, our municipality has reached 308.8 cases, below the regional average.
The Cieza Oeste and Este Health Centers recede to orange and yellow phases, respectively.
"For this reason, the Councilor for Health and Public Health of the City Council of Cieza, Francisco Saorín, has warned that, "although at the national level, after three weeks rising without stopping, the rate of infections in Spain, in the Region of Murcia and in Cieza it has begun to stabilize, "the guard cannot be lifted, since the figures are still very high and worrying.""The danger of this plateau - Saorín has stressed - is that the incidence is double the previous one that we registered at the end of September.
These numbers of infections are noticeable in hospitalizations and mortality figures.In another order of things, the mayor has warned that "it is important to bear in mind that the current infection figures are not comparable with the curve recorded at the beginning of the pandemic, since the number of tests that are carried out now compared to those that they were done in March has nothing to do with it, and neither does the strategy to be followed to combat the pandemic.
"On the other hand, the councilor has rejected and asked the citizens "to ignore opinions lacking in scientific rigor and that can cause serious damage to the health of the population, such as those expressed by the president of the Catholic University San Antonio de Murcia (UCAM) , José Luis Mendoza, who assured last week, during the academic opening ceremony, that consuming vitamin C in 'large doses' can end Covid-19 ".Saorín has warned that Mendoza's opinions on how to protect himself from the coronavirus "respond to a conspiracy theory already known and widely denied to which he adds apocalyptic and ultra-religious overtones to affirm that the one that 'the dark forces of evil' are the culprits of the coronavirus ".Finally, the Councilor for Health and Public Health of Cieza recalled the importance of following the rules issued by the health authorities, such as the mandatory use of a mask, frequent hand washing with soap and water or hydroalcoholic solution, maintenance of the minimum physical distance of 1.5 meters, avoid, especially the elderly or with previous pathologies, leaving their homes or meetings of more than six people.
