由新型冠状病毒SARS-CoV-2引起的COVID-19大流行性疾病的爆发对全球人类健康构成严重威胁。孟加拉国也受到这种病毒性疾病的袭击。在此,我们旨在描述孟加拉国应对COVID-19的反应,特别是孟加拉国如何以其有限的资源应对这种新型病毒性疾病。2020年3月8日,孟加拉国发现首例COVID-19患者。自那时起,截至2020年8月11日,共有263,503人被正式报告为COVID-19感染者,其中3,471人死亡。为对抗COVID-19,政府已采取多项措施,包括诊断疑似病例、隔离可疑人士及隔离受感染患者、在当地或区域实施封锁、关闭所有政府及私人办事处、提高公众意识及加强社交距离等。此外,为应对社会经济状况,政府宣布了几项约119.0亿美元的金融刺激计划。然而,自中国首次报告该疾病以来,政府已经有3个月的时间,但该国未能制定适当的战略,包括接触者追踪,引入基于抗体/抗原的快速检测试剂盒,也未能建立多学科团队来对抗这种疾病。此外,检测设施有限、治疗服务沿着不足以及公众缺乏认识,是孟加拉国有效应对这一局面的主要挑战。沿着政府、非政府组织、私人组织、研究人员、医生、工业家和国际组织的个人意识和援助,都坚定地需要减轻这种高度传染性的疾病。一种名为SARS-CoV-2的新型冠状病毒导致COVID-19疾病。这已成为对人类健康和全世界经济的严重威胁。孟加拉国是世界上人口稠密的国家之一,也受到COVID-19的袭击。2020年3月8日,孟加拉国发现首例COVID-19患者。自那时以来,共有30,205人被正式报告为COVID-19感染者,其中432人死亡。这种致命的COVID- 19严重打击了拥有1.7亿居民的孟加拉国的经济。当地和区域封锁已经暂停了几乎所有的经济活动。然而,该国保健服务设施有限沿着公众缺乏认识,是孟加拉国有效解决这一问题的主要问题。值得注意的是,大量的低收入工人,日工需要外出谋生,这导致了大规模传播。此外,许多医院,一些医生,护士和其他卫生官员不愿意为COVID-19患者提供治疗,也不愿意为非COVID-19患者提供治疗。本报告描述了孟加拉国应对可怕的COVID-19的反应,并讨论了当前的挑战,以及如何以有限的资源减轻这种高度传染性的疾病。
An outbreak of a COVID-19 pandemic disease, caused by a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, has posed a serious threat to global human health. Bangladesh has also come under the attack of this viral disease. Here, we aimed to describe the responses of Bangladesh to tackle the COVID-19, particularly on how Bangladesh is dealing with this novel viral disease with its limited resources. The first case of a COVID-19 patient was detected in Bangladesh on March 8, 2020. Since then, a total of 263,503 peoples are officially reported as COVID-19 infected with 3,471 deaths until August 11, 2020. To combat the COVID-19, the government has taken various steps viz. diagnosis of the suspected cases, quarantine of doubted people and isolation of infected patients, local or regional lockdown, closure of all government and private offices, increase public awareness and enforce social distancing, etc. Moreover, to address the socio-economic situations, the government announced several financial stimulus packages of about USD 11.90 billion. However, the government got 3 months since the disease was first reported in China, but the country failed in making proper strategies including contact tracing, introducing antibody/antigen-based rapid detection kit, and also failed to make multi-disciplinary team to combat this disease. Further, limited testing facilities and inadequate treatment service along with public unawareness are the major challenges for Bangladesh to tackle this situation effectively. Along with the government, personal awareness and assistance of non-government organizations, private organizations, researchers, doctors, industrialists, and international organizations are firmly required to mitigate this highly contagious disease. A novel coronavirus, named SARS-CoV-2, causes COVID-19 disease. This has emerged as a serious threat to human health and economy of the whole world. Bangladesh is one of the densely populated countries in the world, which also has come under attack of COVID-19. The first case of COVID-19 patient was detected in Bangladesh on March 8, 2020. Since then, a total of 30,205 peoples are officially reported as COVID-19 infected with 432 deaths. This lethal COVID- 19 drastically hit the economy of Bangladesh, with 170 million of inhabitants. The local and regional lockdown has already suspended almost all economic activities. However, limited health care service facilities of the country along with public unawareness are the major problems for Bangladesh to tackle this situation effectively. Of note, a large number of low-income workers, day-laborers need to go outside to earn daily income for their livelihood that causes mass transmission. Moreover, many hospitals, some doctors, nurses and other health officials are reluctant to provide treatment to COVID-19 patients and also non- COVID-19 patients. This report described the responses of Bangladesh to tackle the dreadful COVID-19 and discussed prevailing challenges, and how to mitigate this highly contagious disease with limited resources.
