The novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the major public health burden in the world. The morbidity and mortality of the global community due to this disease is dramatically increasing from time to time.
This situational analysis is aimed to analyse prevalence and incidence of COVID-19 and to provide clear information about this disease for the scientific community, stakeholders, healthcare practitioners and decision-makers.
The literatures were identified by searching the key relevant and officially known online databases: medRxiv, Google scholar and PubMed. The online databases contain archives of most English biomedical journals and scientific papers published online from 31 December to 3 April 2020 were included. After the literature search, articles were screened independently by two reviewers for eligibility.
The world continents have confirmed a total of 1,202,320 confirmed COVID-19 cases: (51.2%) in Europe, (27.7%) in North America, (17.9%) in Asia, (1.96%) in South America and at less number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Africa and Australia which was accounted 0.8% and 0.5%, respectively. However, this review showed that there was a significant increase in the confirmed COVID-19 cases by 109,555 in Asia, 8,658 in Africa, 332,866 in North America, 20,269 in South America, 568,894 in Europe, 5,051 in Australia and 1,045,403 in the whole world, with the exception of Antartica, during the review period. The overall results showed that there were 1,098,762 cases and 59,172 deaths recorded during the review period. The result zero number of deaths with COVID-19 was observed in 66 countries.
The review concluded that COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2 is the major public health burden in the world, the morbidity and mortality of global community is dramatically increasing from time to time. Strong collaboration among all sectors and the design of effective prevention and control strategies which include staying home, social/physical distancing, quarantine, testing of suspected patients, isolation and managing of the confirmed cases. Therefore, all countries should implement five major COVID-19 prevention and control programmes as soon as possible at community level.
新型冠状病毒病 2019(COVID-19)是世界上主要的公共卫生负担。由于这种疾病,全球社区的发病率和死亡率一直在不断上升。
本情况分析旨在分析 COVID-19 的发病率和患病率,并为科学界、利益相关者、医疗保健从业者和决策者提供有关该疾病的明确信息。
通过搜索关键相关和官方已知的在线数据库:medRxiv、Google Scholar 和 PubMed,确定文献。这些在线数据库包含大多数英文生物医学期刊的档案和自 2020 年 12 月 31 日至 4 月 3 日在线发表的科学论文,包括在内。文献检索后,两名评审员独立筛选文章以确定其是否符合入选标准。
世界各大洲共确诊 COVID-19 病例 1202320 例:(51.2%)在欧洲,(27.7%)在北美,(17.9%)在亚洲,(1.96%)在南美,在非洲和澳大利亚的确诊 COVID-19 病例较少,分别占 0.8%和 0.5%。然而,本综述显示,亚洲确诊 COVID-19 病例显著增加 109555 例,非洲增加 8658 例,北美增加 332866 例,南美增加 20269 例,欧洲增加 5051 例,澳大利亚增加 568894 例,全世界增加 1045403 例,南极洲除外。在审查期间。总体结果显示,在此期间共记录 1098762 例病例和 59172 例死亡。66 个国家报告 COVID-19 死亡病例为零。
本综述得出结论,COVID-19;SARS-CoV-2 是世界上主要的公共卫生负担,全球社区的发病率和死亡率一直在不断上升。所有部门之间的紧密合作以及设计有效的预防和控制策略,包括待在家里、社会/身体距离、隔离、疑似患者的检测、确诊病例的隔离和管理。因此,所有国家都应尽快在社区一级实施五大 COVID-19 预防和控制方案。
