Abstract

The article provides an analysis of a large-scale epidemic outbreak caused by human coronaviruses. The epidemiological situation in the world and the Russian Federation is analyzed, which forced specialists to significantly increase the level of epidemiological danger from coronaviruses. The epidemic situations of the incidence in six regions of the Central Black Earth Region are described, the dynamics and regional features of the spread and nature of the course of the new coronavirus infection Covid-19 are generalized and systematized. Some epidemiological aspects of this infection in the territory of the Voronezh region are described. The dynamics of the epidemic process is described and a number of epidemiological indicators are analyzed (daily increase in morbidity and mortality, distribution of the duration of lethal diseases, risk groups, etc.). The clinical and epidemiological features of the combined forms of infections are analyzed: the prevalence of a moderate course, the risk of complications in risk groups. The difficulty of verifying this infection from other viral infections based on the clinical picture, the high virulence and severity of the course has been established. It was shown that the mobilization of health care to combat coronavirus infection revealed the main thing: the health care system has resources and mechanisms through which it is possible to quickly switch to work in extreme conditions. New hospitals and beds, re-equipment with diagnostic and resuscitation equipment, accelerated retraining of doctors. All this was effective evidence that an adequate potential supply of resources will not only reduce the consequences of possible epidemics in the future, but also during the period outside the epidemic will help accelerate the adoption of effective decisions and improve the quality of medical care for the population.

Highlights

  • We have analyzed data collected in 6 regions of the Black Earth Belt in central Russia

  • The first cases of the novel coronavirus infection in Voronezh region were reported in March 2020

  • Resource mobilization in the wake of the Sars-CoV-2 epidemic revealed that the Russian healthcare system can successfully respond to public health emergencies

Summary

Introduction

Описаны эпидемические ситуации по заболеваемости в шести областях Центрально-Черноземного региона, обобщены и систематизированы динамика и региональные особенности распространения и характера течения новой коронавирусной инфекции Covid-19. Что проведенная мобилизация здравоохранения для борьбы с коронавирусной инфекцией выявила главное: у системы здравоохранения есть ресурсы и механизмы, благодаря которым можно быстро перестроиться на работу в экстремальных условиях. By March 2020, the pandemic had reached the Black Earth Belt of central Russia, where the first COVID-19 cases were reported in Lipetsk region. The infection soon spread to 5 other regions of the Russian Black Earth Belt, including Voronezh, Kursk, Oryol, Tambov, and Belgorod [7, 8]. The aim of this study was to systematize data on COVID-19 collected in the Black Earth Belt region of Central Russia
