Severe COVID-19 can still be fatal or result in a prolonged hospitalization, so early recognition of COVID-19 and timely intervention in the at-risk populations is essential to prevent a bad outcome
Covid-19 has been trending in the news, with several countries announcing an increase in cases and US President Joe Biden testing positive for SARS-CoV-2. Several of my own patients have also tested positive for the virus. The latest variant, KP.3, seems to be taking over and is driving a resurgence in cases.
Most people infected with SARS-CoV-2 who are asymptomatic or only have mild symptoms of Covid-19 will not require antiviral treatment. Rest and supportive care are recommended for faster recovery, and isolation can be discontinued once the patient has been afebrile for at least 24 hours.People who are at high risk for hospitalization may benefit from antiviral treatment.
What about vaccination? Are our vaccines still any good? The US Centers for Disease Control continues to recommend updated vaccines for people 6 months and older due to concerns about decreased protection from infection. The data still shows that previous vaccination continues to protect against severe disease, and so this recommendation is not echoed by the WHO.
