Ukuqubuka kwemonkeypox emazweni amaningi, futhi i-WHO ibiza ukuqapha komhlaba wonke ukuthi sizivikele egciwaneni.

I-Monkeypox iyigciwane elingavamile, kodwa amazwe angu-24 abika amacala aqinisekisiwe alesi sifo.Lesi sifo manje siphakamisa i-alamu eYurophu, e-Australia nase-US.I-WHO ibize umhlangano ophuthumayo njengoba amacala enyuka.

1.Iyini Inkawu?

I-monkeypox yisifo esibangelwa igciwane lemonkeypox.Kuyisifo se-viral zoonotic, okusho ukuthi singasakazeka sisuka ezilwaneni siye kubantu.Ingase futhi isakaze phakathi kwabantu.

2. Yiziphi izimpawu?

Isifo siqala ngokuthi:

• Imfiva

• Ikhanda elibuhlungu

• Ubuhlungu bemisipha

• Iqolo

• Ukuvuvukala kwama-lymph nodes

• Awekho Amandla

• Ukuqubuka kwesikhumba / Lesiona

Phakathi nosuku olu-1 kuya kwezingu-3 (ngezinye izikhathi isikhathi eside) ngemva kokuvela kwemfiva, isiguli siba nokuqubuka, ngokuvamile okuqala ebusweni bese kudlulela kwezinye izingxenye zomzimba.

Izilonda ziqhubeka ngezigaba ezilandelayo ngaphambi kokuwa:

• Ama-macules

• Ama-Papules

• Ama-vesicles

• Ama-Pustules

• Uqweqwe

Lesi sifo ngokuvamile sithatha amasonto angu-2-4.E-Afrika, i-monkeypox kuboniswe ukuthi ibangela ukufa kubantu abaningi abangaba ngu-1 kwabayishumi abathola lesi sifo.

3.Yini okufanele siyenze ukuvimbela?

Esingakwenza:

1. Gwema ukuthinta izilwane ezingase zibe naleli gciwane (kuhlanganise nezilwane ezigulayo noma ezitholakale zifile ezindaweni lapho kuvela khona inkawu).

2. Gwema ukuthintana nanoma yiziphi izinto ezisetshenziswayo, njengezingubo zokulala, ezike zahlangana nesilwane esigulayo.

3. Hlukanisa iziguli ezinegciwane kwabanye abangaba sengozini yokutheleleka.

4. Zijwayeze ukuhlanzeka kwezandla kahle ngemva kokuxhumana nezilwane noma abantu abanaleli gciwane.Isibonelo, ukugeza izandla zakho ngensipho namanzi noma usebenzisa isibulali magciwane esisekelwe etshwaleni.

5. Sebenzisa izinto zokuzivikela (i-PPE) lapho unakekela iziguli.

4.Sihlolwa kanjani uma sinezimpawu zeNkawu?

Ukutholwa kwezibonelo zecala elisolwayo kwenziwa kusetshenziswa ukuhlolwa kwe-nucleic acid amplification (NAAT), okufana nesikhathi sangempela noma esivamile se-polymerase chain reaction (PCR).I-NAAT iyindlela ethile yokuhlola i-monkeypoxvirus.

Manje #Bioantibody Monkeypox yesikhathi sangempela se-PCR kit ithola isitifiketi se-IVDD CE futhi itholakale emakethe yamazwe ngamazwe.
