What is a Coronavirus?
• Coronaviruses are a large family of
viruses, some causing illness in people
and others that circulate among animals,
including camels, cats and bats.
• Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning
they are transmitted between animals
and people. Image source: Palawan News

• Rarely, animal coronaviruses can evolve


and infect people and then spread
between people such as has been seen
with MERS and SARS.
(Source: WHO)

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


What is a Novel Coronavirus n(CoV)?

• A novel coronavirus (CoV) is


a new strain of coronavirus
that has not been previously
identified in humans.

(Source: WHO)
Image source: Palawan News

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


What is 2019-nCoV?
• 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a virus
(more specifically, a coronavirus) identified as
the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness
first detected in Wuhan, China.
• Early on, many of the patients in the outbreak in
Wuhan, China reportedly had some link to a
large seafood and animal market, suggesting
animal-to-person spread.
• A growing number of patients reportedly have
not had exposure to animal markets, suggesting
person-to-person spread is occurring.

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


Signs and Symptoms of Coronavirus

• Patients with confirmed 2019-nCoV infection have reportedly


had mild to severe respiratory illness with symptoms of:
• fever
• dry cough
• shortness of breath
• In severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute
respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even death.
• Symptoms of 2019-nCoV may appear in as few as 2 days or
as long as 14 after exposure

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


Can humans be infected with nCoV of animal
source?
• Yes
• SARS-CoV - transmitted from civet cats to humans
in China in 2002
• MERS-CoV from dromedary camels to humans in
Saudi Arabia in 2012
• Several known coronaviruses are circulating in
animals that have not yet infected humans.

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


Animal Source of 2019-nCoV?
• The available genomic sequences suggest a likely single,
recent emergence from a virus related to bat coronaviruses
and SARS-CoV.
• The available sequence information does not provide any
information about severity of associated illness or
transmissibility of the virus.
(Source: CDC)

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


How is 2019-nCoV Transmitted?
• 2019-nCoV MOT: UNCLEAR
• More likely of RESPIRATORY TRANSMISSION
Two Types of Respiratory Transmission:
1. Droplet-large particles, short range
2. Airborne-smaller particles, longer distances

• 2019-nCoV is similar to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS),


where human to human transmission occurred through droplets, direct
contact and fomites, but may also be transmitted through smaller
aerosols over long distances, suggesting that the mode of transmission
can be similar
Suspected MOT for 2019 nCoV:
a. Droplet
b. Contact with infected person or objects they come in contact
with
(Source: WHO)

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


Research
How is 2019-nCoV Transmitted? Update
• New coronavirus is able to transfer between person to person, in a
hospital setting, a family home setting, and also in an intercity
setting which what makes this new disease difficult to control.
• Possible that children and young people who do not show
symptoms may be transmitting the virus, characterizing the
disease as “asymptomatic walking pneumonia.”
• Stressed the importance of quarantining patients as early as
possible, given the early signs of asymptomatic transmission.
• Symptoms of early coronavirus cases showed similarities to SARS

(Source: Yuen Kwok-yung, The Lancet 2020)

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


How is 2019-nCoV Transmitted?
•KEY FACTOR: Whether the virus can spread
in the absence of symptoms during:
a. incubation period (before symptoms
appear) OR
b. in people who never get sick (carrier)
GENEVA: The World Health Organization (WHO)
said Monday (Jan 27) that it remained unclear if
the deadly corona virus spreading in China and
beyond is contagious during its incubation period,
before symptoms appear.
How big could the outbreak be?
• Estimate that the number of cases may be five or 10 times higher than what
has been reported.
• WHO calculated Reproduction Number (R0) of the virus as between 1.5 to
2.5
• If the R0 is higher than 2-3, more cases should be seen globally by mid
January

With more confirmed cases outside of


China,
More likely scenario estimates show there may be about
6,000 cases

Laboratory for the Modeling of
Biological and Socio-technical
Systems. Estimates as of Jan. 23.

0 2000 4000 6000 8000 10000 12000


Vaccine for nCoV?

•When a disease is new, there is NO vaccine


until one is developed.

DOH CLHD – EMERGING & RE-EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE PROGRAM


Factors how the virus spread so rapidly:

1. Travel is a major factor


2. Possibly asymptomatic transmission among
children and young people
3. Substantial human-to-human transmission
4. Continued animal or environmental
exposure to a source of infection in Wuhan,
China
Risk Assessment
There is evidence of broader geographic spread across mainland
China and the rest of Asia, Australia, Europe, USA, and Canada
The risk from these outbreaks depends on characteristics of the virus,
including whether and how well it spreads between people, the
severity of resulting illness, and the medical or other measures
available to control the impact of the virus (for example, vaccine or
treatment medications).
Although outbreak may have started as animal-human transmission,
evidence currently supports human-to-human transmission and is
likely to continue
Further information is required to understand how readily the virus
can be transmitted between infected individuals.
HEIC not yet declared but WHO considers this an emergency and
monitoring is constant with already existing international coordinated
health response
"While this outbreak is an emergency in China, it has not yet become a global health emergency,"
WHO spokesman Tarik Jasarevic (WHO officials cited a limited number of cases abroad, and strong,
preventative containment measures in China).

An isolation facility aims to control the airflow in the room so that
the number of airborne infectious particles is reduced to a level
that ensures cross-infection of other people within a healthcare
facility is highly unlikely. This may be achieved by:

Control of the quantity and quality of intake or exhaust air.


Maintain different air pressures between adjacent areas.
Designing airflow patterns for specific clinical procedures.
Diluting infectious particles with large air volumes.
Air filtration – HEPA filters, etc.
ANTEROOM
An Anteroom or airlock lobby, when attached to an Isolation room,
functions as:

A controlled area in which the transfer of supplies, equipment and


persons can occur without contamination impacting on the
surrounding health care areas
A barrier against the potential loss of pressurisation
Controls the entry or exit of contaminated air when the anteroom
door is opened
A controlled area where personal protective equipment (PPE) or
clothing can be donned or removed prior to entry/exit of the isolated
contamination area.

The Anteroom will require sufficient space to allow for storage of


Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) i.e. masks, gowns and gloves for
protective isolation.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:

 Use of Floor tiles or welded vinyl for flooring, for easy cleaning.
 Painted finish wall
 Sliding doors are not recommended due to difficulties in
maintenance and maintaining a seal. But if space is an issue, sliding
doors should only be used as a last resort.
 Doors must be self closing.
 Each entry door must be sealed on its top and sides, including an
adjustable bottom seal.
 It is also advisable to provide fixed view glass on doors to allow for
adequate view of the isolated patient, without health care
personnel having to enter the room.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:

 Remove all non-essential furniture and ensure that the


remaining furniture is easy to clean, and does not conceal or
retain dirt or moisture within or around it.
 Place appropriate waste bags in a bin. If possible, use a touch-
free bin. Ensure that used (i.e. dirty) bins remain inside the
isolation. Place a puncture-proof container for sharps disposal
inside the isolation room or area.
