I-CoViNet: Inethiwekhi eNtsha yeeLebhu zeHlabathi zeCoronaviruses-iSayensi yaseYurophu

Uthungelwano olutsha lwelizwe jikelele lweelebhu ze iintsholongwane ze-Corona, CoViNet, iye yaphehlelelwa yi-WHO. Injongo yeli nyathelo kukuhlanganisa iinkqubo zokucupha kunye neelabhoratri zokukhangela ukuxhasa uvavanyo oluphuculweyo lwe-epidemiological kunye nelebhu (phenotypic kunye ne-genotypic) yovavanyo lwe-SARS-CoV-2, i-MERS-CoV kunye nenoveli. iintsholongwane ze-Corona ukubaluleka kwempilo yoluntu.

Uthungelwano olusandul’ ukuphehlelelwa luyanda “kwi-WHO SARS-CoV-2 Reference Laboratory Network” eyasekwa ekuqaleni kukaJanuwari ka-2020, ngenjongo yokuqala yokubonelela ngovavanyo oluqinisekisayo kumazwe angenawo okanye kuncinci umthamo wovavanyo lwe-SARS-CoV-2. Ukusukela ngoko, iimfuno ze-SARS-CoV-2 ziye zavela kwaye zabeka iliso kwindaleko intsholongwane, ukusasazeka kwezinto ezahlukeneyo kunye nokuvavanya impembelelo yokwahluka kuluntu impilo ihlala ibalulekile.

Emva kweminyaka eliqela Covid-19 ubhubhane, i-WHO igqibe ekubeni yandise kwaye ihlaziye umda, iinjongo kunye nemigaqo yereferensi kunye nokuseka i-WHO entsha. ICoronavirus Uthungelwano” (CoViNet) olunamandla okwandisa ubhubhane kunye nelebhu equka: (i) ubungcali kwimpilo yezilwanyana kunye nophononongo lokusingqongileyo; (ii) enye iintsholongwane ze-Corona, kuquka i-MERS-CoV; kunye (iii) nokuchongwa kwenoveli iintsholongwane ze-Corona oko kunokuchaphazela kakubi impilo yabantu.

I-CoViNet, ke, yinethiwekhi yeelabhoratri zehlabathi ezinobuchwephesha ebantwini, kwizilwanyana kunye nokusingqongileyo intsholongwane ye-Corona ukucupha ngezi njongo ziphambili zilandelayo:

ukufunyaniswa kwangaphambili kunye nokuchanekileyo kwe-SARS-CoV-2, i-MERS-CoV kunye nenoveli iintsholongwane ze-Corona ngokubaluleka kwempilo yoluntu;
Ukubeka iliso kunye nokubeka iliso kujikelezo lwehlabathi kunye nokuvela kwe-SARS-CoV, i-MERS-CoV kunye nenoveli iintsholongwane ze-Corona ukubaluleka kwempilo yoluntu ekuqondeni imfuno yendlela “yeMpilo enye”;
Uvavanyo lomngcipheko kwangethuba lwe-SARS-CoV-2, i-MERS-CoV kunye nenoveli iintsholongwane ze-Corona ngokubaluleka kwempilo yoluntu, ukwazisa umgaqo-nkqubo we-WHO onxulumene noluhlu lwezempilo yoluntu kunye nemilinganiselo yokuchasana nonyango; kwaye
Inkxaso yokwakhiwa kwesakhono2 seelabhoratri ezihambelana neemfuno ze-WHO kunye ne-CoViNet, ngakumbi ezo zikumazwe anengeniso ephantsi kunye nephakathi, kwi-SARS-CoV-2, i-MERS-CoV kunye ne-coronavirus yenoveli ebalulekileyo kwimpilo yoluntu.

Uthungelwano okwangoku lubandakanya iilebhu ezingama-36 ezisuka kumazwe angama-21 kuzo zonke imimandla emi-6 ye-WHO.

Abameli beelabhoratri badibana e-Geneva ngomhla wama-26 ukuya kowama-27 kweyoKwindla ukugqibezela isicwangciso sokusebenza sika-2024-2025 ukuze amazwe angamaLungu e-WHO axhotyiswe ngcono ukuba abhaqwe kwangethuba, uvavanyo lomngcipheko, kunye nokusabela kwimingeni yezempilo enxulumene ne-coronavirus.

Idatha eveliswe ngeenzame ze-CoViNet iya kukhokela umsebenzi wamaQela eeNgcebiso zobuGcisa be-WHO kwi-Viral Evolution (TAG-VE) kunye ne-Vaccine Composition (TAG-CO-VAC) kunye nezinye, iqinisekisa ukuba imigaqo-nkqubo yezempilo yehlabathi kunye nezixhobo zisekelwe kulwazi lwamva nje lwenzululwazi.

Ubhubhani we-COVID-19 udlulile kodwa ubhubhani kunye nemingcipheko yobhubhane ebangelwa yi-coronavirus ibalulekile kwimbali yangaphambili. Yiyo loo nto imfuneko yokuqonda ngcono ii-coronavirus ezisemngciphekweni omkhulu njenge-SARS, i-MERS kunye ne-SARS-CoV-2 kunye nokufumanisa ii-coronavirus ezintsha. Inethiwekhi entsha yeelabhoratri zehlabathi kufuneka iqinisekise ukufunyanwa kwangexesha, ukubeka iliso kunye novavanyo lwee-coronavirus ezibaluleke kakhulu kwimpilo yoluntu.
