Today we will talk about a mysterious case of coronavirus that has now become a medical mystery, a mystery that challenges all our knowledge related to the corona. This virus is so strange and mysterious that even today medical science has not been able to understand it properly. But since the emergence of this virus, humans have made many claims, many theories, and learned a lot about this virus. But now when we started to think that we had come to know everything about this virus, then a case related to this virus came to light recently, which has pushed the knowledge of our corona so far to one side. This case has become a big puzzle for medical science, to which no one has been able to answer yet. So what is this whole mystery, let's know about it in detail.
This strange incident took place in the Argentine city of Ushuaia in South America, which is also considered the world's southernmost city. This small town surrounded by the sea is a big center of the fishing industry, from which many fishing trawlers leave for long journeys to the sea every day for fishing. One such fishing trawler is named Echizen Maru, which went on a fishing journey on 6 June 2020 with 61 crew members. This journey was going to be about 45 days long, but 35 days after the journey started, the ship returned to port. Because almost all the crew members aboard were suddenly feeling ill, in such a situation there was no option but to return to port. After returning, all crew members underwent a medical check-up and it was found that 57 out of 61 crew members were found to be corona positive. The news quickly spread throughout the city and the incident took the form of a mystery. For everyone, this incident was surprising because all the crew members had a corona test before the departure of this ship and all were found corona negative in that test. Despite this, these crew members were quarantined in a hotel in Ushuaia 14 days before the start of the journey, which was part of the mandatory process before going on a sea voyage.
The goods loaded on the ship were also thoroughly investigated and all the equipment on the ship was properly disinfected. Those involved in the investigation of the case said that during their 35-day voyage, no new man boarded the ship and the ship had no contact with dry land and no other ship had come into contact with the ship. The minimum distance of the ship passing closest to Echizen Maru was about 4 kilometers. None of the people on the ship landed even once on the ground, nor did they come in contact with anyone outside after the voyage began. So how did these people come in the grip of this virus, it has become such a mystery that doctors are trying hard to solve it. Doctors are trying to solve this case with the help of different hypotheses, for example, it is to be believed that there was a mistake in the corona examination of the crew members at the beginning of the journey. The report of a person may not have been correct, but according to the still known information, the time of exposure and the display of symptoms of corona i.e. the incubation period can be from 2 days to 2 weeks. But the crew members of the Echizen Maru fishing trawler did a 14-days quarantine before the journey, and even, nobody's health was showing the symptoms of coronavirus for a starting few weeks during the journey. This proves that there was no mistake in the corona test that happened before the sea journey because if there was a mistake then the corona symptoms would have started appearing in the crew members much earlier.
Apart from this, a possibility has also been raised that the coronavirus may be on the goods loaded on the ship. But the agency that owns the ship reported that the ship and the goods were properly disinfected before the sea journey began. Medical science says that this virus can live on different surfaces for different times but it is of a short period i.e. this virus cannot survive on any surface for many days. So this possibility also seems impossible to happen. So far, many such hypotheses and possibilities have been expressed about this case but every possibility is getting eliminated. Investigators are giving up hope of solving the case, saying they have no answer on how the virus reached people aboard the ship. This is a case that is not possible to solve with the information we currently have. Currently, the ship is placed on the seaside coast of Ushuaia and the coast is completely sealed. All members of the corona infected have been kept on the same ship as isolation center and two were hospitalized. Not being able to find the root cause of this incident, it is revealed that our medical science still does not know everything about this dangerous virus. While on one hand, scientists are claiming to bring the vaccine in the market soon, on the other hand, the cases like Echizen Maru are warning that in the haste to make the vaccine, we have not known this virus in-depth, which in future can cause a dangerous situation.
