Communiqué N°382 du Ministère de la Santé et des Affaires Sociales sur le suivi des actions de prévention et de riposte face à la maladie à CORONAVIRUS

Partout aux États-Unis, les Noirs contractent et meurent du Covid-19 à un taux extrêmement disproportionné, et dans certaines régions, ils ne sont pas testés pour le virus aussi souvent que les Blancs.

"More specifically, evidence of SARS-CoV-2, the scientific name for the novel virus, was present in 106 of the 7,389 blood donations, which were collected between Dec. 13, 2019, and Jan 17, 2020, according to the study. Antibodies to the virus were found in 39 blood samples from Washington, Oregon and California, and they were found in 67 samples from the other six states. “These findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 may have been introduced into the United States prior to January 19, 2020,” the researchers stated. The findings also “highlight the value of blood donations as a source for conducting SARS-CoV-2 surveillance.” "
