Ngaba usenexhala malunga neNtsholongwane kaZika?

Umxholo

• Iindaba ezimbi: Iziphene zokuZalwa ezinxulumene neZika
• Iindaba Ezilungileyo: Inqanaba leSilumkiso leZika langoku
• Oko Kuthetha Ntoni Ngengozi Yakho yeZika
• Uphengululo lwe

Sele phantse unyaka ukusukela oko ukuphakama kwe-Zika frenzy-inani lamatyala lalinyuka, uluhlu lwendlela intsholongwane eyayisasazeka ngayo yayikhula, kwaye iziphumo ezinokubakho zempilo zazisiya zisothusa kwaye zisothusa. Kwaye konke oku ngaphambi nje kweeOlimpiki zasehlotyeni eRio de Janiero, eBrazil, indawo eshushu yeengcongconi ezithwele iZika. (Obv, ebangela uloyiko kwabanye beOlympians, abagqibe kwelokuba bayitsibe iMidlalo ngokupheleleyo egameni lokuhlala bekhuselekile.)

Iindaba ezimbi: Iziphene zokuZalwa ezinxulumene neZika

Ingxelo entsha evela kumaziko okuLawula nokuKhuselwa kwezifo (CDC) yafumanisa ukuba iipesenti ezi-5 zabasetyhini kwimimandla yase-US abanesifo se-Zika virus ngexesha lokukhulelwa kwabo banomntwana okanye umbungu oneziphene ezinxulumene neZika. Ezi ziquka i-microcephaly (intloko encinci ngokungaqhelekanga), ukonakala kwengqondo kunye neliso, intshukumo ethintelweyo ngenxa yezihlunu ezingaqhelekanga okanye ukukhula kwamalungu, kunye nesifo se-nervous esinqabileyo esibizwa ngokuba yi-Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS). Ekupheleni kukaMeyi 2017, inani labasetyhini abakhulelweyo abaneZika kwimimandla yase-US lafikelela kuma-3,916, kwaye bekukho iintsana ezingama-72 ezizalwe ziziphene zokuzalwa ezinxulumene neZika ukusuka kwi-1,579 yokukhulelwa okugqityiweyo.

Abasetyhini abosulelekileyo ngexesha labo lekota yokuqala babenomngcipheko omkhulu-kwi-12-yeemveku zabo okanye usana oluneziphene ezinxulumene neZika. Ngokwengxelo yeCDC, malunga neepesenti ezisi-8 zosulelo lwe-trimester yokuqala, iipesenti ezi-5 zezifo ze-second-trimester, kunye neepesenti ezi-4 zezifo ze-trimester yesithathu zibangele iziphene ezinxulumene neZika.

Iindaba Ezilungileyo: Inqanaba leSilumkiso leZika langoku

Lo bhubhani usenokuphuma ngokusemthethweni. Irhuluneli yasePuerto Rico ivakalise mva nje ukuba ubhubhani we-Zika uphelile ngokusemthethweni kwesi siqithi, ngokutsho kweReuters. Nangona iPuerto Rico iye yanoqhambuko olungaphezulu kwe-40K iyonke, bekukho kuphela iimeko ezili-10 ezisanda kuxelwa ukusukela ekupheleni kuka-Epreli. Oko akuthethi ukuba uZika unyamalale ngomlingo kwi-PR, nangona. I-CDC isacebisa iNqanaba lesi-2 lesilumkiso sokuhamba esityheli kwindawo kwaye abantu "baziqhelanise nokhuseleko oluphuculweyo."

Kwakhona, iNqanaba lesi-2 lezilumkiso zokuhamba eBrazil kunye nengingqi yaseMiami zinyusiwe ngokusemthethweni, okuthetha ukuba, ngelixa iimeko ezingaqhelekanga zisenokwenzeka, umngcipheko wosulelo usenokuba usezantsi. Kodwa ungawukhuphi umthwalo wakho okwangoku. I-CDC isathathela ingqalelo amanye amazwe amaninzi ukubeka umngcipheko wokuhamba kwinqanaba 2, kubandakanya iMexico, iArgentina, iBarbados, iAruba, iCosta Rica, kunye namanye amazwe amaninzi kwiCaribbean, eMzantsi nakuMbindi Merika, eAsia naseAfrika. IBrownville, TX, idolophu ngasekunene komda waseMexico, yindawo ekukuphela kwayo e-U.S esele inesilumkiso seNqanaba 2. '

Oko Kuthetha Ntoni Ngengozi Yakho yeZika

Ungathatha umoya ophefumlayo. Asisekho phakathi kokuphazamiseka kukaZika. Nangona kunjalo, intsholongwane ayicinywanga ngokupheleleyo, ke kufuneka uthabathe amanyathelo okhuseleko-kwaye ngakumbi ukuba ukhulelwe.

Okokuqala, xuba ezi zibakala zokufuna ukwazi i-Zika virus. Kuninzi okuqondwayo malunga nentsholongwane ngoku kunakuqala ukuphuma kwayo, kubandakanya inyani yokuba inokusasazeka njenge-STD, inokuhlala emehlweni akho, kwaye inokuba neziphumo ezibi kwingqondo yabantu abadala. Ukuba uhambela kwilizwe elisesilumkiso seNqanaba 2 okanye apho kusandula kuphakanyiswa khona, kuya kufuneka ukhathalele ukuthintela ukulunywa yingcongconi kwaye wenze isondo elikhuselekileyo. (Okufanele ukuba uyayenza, TBH.)
