The final, formatted version of the article will be published soon.

    In brief, we should all realize that COVID-19 is not the last pandemic.It is obvious that there will be new generations and our long years to spend with masks, sanitizers, and hand disinfectants. It is important in the long run to encourage vaccination and other preventive measures, along with determining high-risk groups to provide focused protection programs to them. This kind of approach and public health perspective will be the only recipe to protect hospitals and other health institutions from being overcrowded and overwhelmed by the disastrous situation.Ozgur KARCIOGLU, M.D., Prof, FEMAT Dept. of Emergency Medicine, Univ. of Health Sciences, Istanbul Training and Research Hospital, Fatih, Istanbul, Türkiye Email: okarcioglu@gmail.com
