Hossam Hosni: Virus spread manageable for most but risks high for chronic patients
Dr. Hossam Hosni, Professor of Pulmonary Diseases at Cairo University, stated that the current respiratory viruses, which are often characterized by a runny nose and accompanied by symptoms such as body aches, fever, and confusion, tend to increase during the autumn and winter seasons due to changes in temperature, inadequate ventilation, and psychological stress. He explained that the rate of serious complications is low among healthy individuals, but those with risk factors—such as the elderly, smokers, pregnant women, and patients with obesity, diabetes, or heart diseases—require close monitoring and should seek medical care if infection symptoms appear. These statements come in the context of rising respiratory virus cases with seasonal changes, with an emphasis that the current viruses are less dangerous for individuals without chronic conditions.
