Coronavirus in Argentina: the Government expanded the definition of a suspected case and more analysis will be done
Starting today all patients suffering from cough, loss of smell and / or taste and fever will be tested
April 16, 2020


The Ministry of Health has expanded the definition of a suspected coronavirus case and as of today all people who present with symptoms of fever of 37.5 ? or more will be tested together with anosmia / dysgeusia (loss of smell and taste), cough and respiratory distress. . In the case of health personnel, they should only present two of these symptoms to be tested. Meanwhile, if a patient loses smell or taste and that is the only symptom, they must be isolated for 72 hours and will also be tested.

In a statement, Salud reported that "the new definition of a suspected case of COVID-19 includes anyone with a fever of 37.5 degrees or more, and one or more of the following symptoms: cough, sore throat, respiratory distress, lack of smell or taste (anosmia / dysgeusia) without another disease that fully explains the clinical picture ”.

In addition, to these clinical characteristics “we must add the fact that this person has been in contact with confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the last 14 days; or have an international travel history; or have a history of travel or residence in our country in areas of local coronavirus transmission, either community or conglomerate. "

The decision to expand the suspicious case criterion is related to the arrival of the cold and everything that autumn and winter bring in terms of seasonal diseases. In this way, if at this time of the year the cases of colds, common flu and other pathologies increase, it is necessary to relax the criteria to analyze if a person suffers from COVID-19 so that the health system detects the largest number of people with coronavirus and thus have accurate statistics.

In total, Health determined four criteria to define if a person should be tested. The first is for anyone with a cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, and loss of smell and taste. The second criterion includes "all patients with a clinical and radiological diagnosis of pneumonia and without another etiology that explains the clinical picture." The third covers patients with loss of smell and taste. The fourth is for health personnel: if they have a fever or at least two of the other symptoms they will be tested.

The Ministry of Health had modified the criteria for determining suspected cases in late March. At that time, the Government established that to the known symptoms and requirements, it added that of having had a stay or being a resident in areas where there is local, community and conglomerate transmission, that is, "the Buenos Aires, Chaco and Santa Fe Metropolitan Area, the city of C?rdoba, Alta Gracia, R?o Cuarto and Ushuaia ”.

"The 'cardinal' symptoms continue: fever with cough, sore throat, respiratory distress, having had contact with a confirmed case of coronavirus, having had a history of travel in the last 14 days" and adding "having had a stay or be a resident in areas where there is local, community and conglomerate transmission ”, reported at that time the undersecretary of Health Strategies, Alejandro Costa.

This Thursday, Health reported that seven people died in the last hours in the City
e Buenos Aires and in the provinces of Chaco, Mendoza and Buenos Aires and 98 new cases of patients with coronavirus were confirmed today, so that the number of people infected with the virus in the country amounts to 2,669 and the fatal victims so far are 122.

The Buenos Aires government also detailed today what activities and services will be exempt from the mandatory quarantine in the framework of the "flexibilization" stage that began last Monday.

“Exceptions for recreation or social activity are not available, have not been enabled, and non-essential activities remain suspended. The reason why we need to reinforce this concept is because Argentina is generating local responses to specific issues, "Carla Vizzotti, secretary of Access to Health of the Nation, explained a few days ago.

Unlike the countries of the northern hemisphere, Vizzotti pointed out, the country is at a time of the year where the coldest temperatures have not yet arrived and with them the circulation of respiratory viruses. "That makes our management strategy have to take this factor into account," he said.

Infobae revealed that Alberto Fern?ndez has no doubts about the extension of the social, preventive and compulsory isolation that he decreed on Thursday, March 19 and began to take effect on Friday, 20, which should expire this Sunday and whose extension will now be until May 10. .

The President of Argentina, Alberto Fern?ndez, announced that the social and compulsory isolation will extend two more weeks, until May 10, although the confinement will be made more flexible so that half of the population can be mobilized.

Recalling that the confinement began on March 20, Fern?ndez assured that the pandemic of the new coronavirus, causing the COVID-19 disease, "generates economic conflicts and many Argentines are needing to return to their daily lives to recover the usual, among them the way to earn a living, and we must take that step knowing that we must be very careful not to increase the risk more than it should. ”

With the physical isolation that came into effect more than five weeks ago, the government managed "to make the contagion slow to organize the health system and to meet a greater demand for cases," said the president.

"We continue in a pandemic that is ravaging the world, and thank God in Argentina it has not had the capacity to harm that it has expressed in other parts of the world, but that has happened because of what Argentines and Argentines have done," he stressed.

Through a television that showed the map of the country, the president reported on the advance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the territory, with the Argentine capital and the province of Buenos Aires being the largest number of cases, along with that of C?rdoba, Santa Fe, Chaco, Tierra del Fuego and Rio Negro, the Russian news agency Sputnik said.

We want to preserve people's health and that also implies preserving psychological health. The 911 line received many requests for psychological attention and that must be taken into account. In recent days there was a certain social relaxation that we all talk about and that is nothing more nor less than the claim to have some kind of permission to go out, "he said Monday.

Initially, it was specified that the measure would apply throughout Argentina and would include risk groups. However, the opposition of the largest districts, which in an unprecedented event grouped together to raise their rejection, forced the national government to modify the decree and leave recreational walks at the discretion of each jurisdiction.

The City of Buenos Aires and the provinces of Buenos Aires, Santa Fe and C?rdoba jointly decided not to enable the exits. These four provinces comprise almost 70% of the country's population, and their leaders considered it important to maintain a high degree of cohesion. So they understood that it was important to communicate together. "We must be united and firm in how the quarantine should continue," they explained to Infobae.

In the last hours, Tucum?n, Corrientes, Salta, Misiones and Mendoza joined the list of provinces that decided not to enable the exits.

In Tucum?n, Governor Juan Manzur made the determination to maintain isolation without easing. "The conditions are not given. Tucum?n has particular characteristics, it is the most densely populated province. We still cannot authorize people to take to the streets, ”said the president in an interview with the Gazette.

In Salta, Governor Gustavo Sa?nz decided to postpone the leisure time and agree with each of the mayors to do in each municipality. In addition, this Monday it prohibited the entry of medium and long distance groups, after it was confirmed that a person from Salta, coming from R?o Negro, where he had lived with a person who had COVID-19, arrived in the province without any type of control. . The passenger had no symptoms and was traveling with a companion. Hours later it was confirmed that he had a coronavirus. It is the fourth case. The remaining three were discharged.

The province of Corrientes did not enable recreational outings either. This was confirmed this Sunday by Governor Gustavo Vald?s. “We will not allow recreational outings or outdoor sports activities. We are going to wait a week to evaluate its implementation and we are going to talk to the mayors, "he said in dialogue with TN.

In Misiones, Governor Oscar Herrera Ahuad had already warned that in his province the release of the recreation time would be postponed for at least a week to 500 meters from the home.

Rodolfo Su?rez, Governor of Mendoza, clarified that compulsory isolation will continue in "El gran Mendoza: Capital, Guaymall?n, Las Heras, Godoy Cruz, Luj?n, Maip? and Lavalle." "The rest of the province will decide together with the Intendants the way to continue once the new Presidential decree is announced," he said on social networks.
