Iimvavanyo zeCoronavirus zidume ngokungakhululeki. Ngapha koko, ukuncamathela i-swab yempumlo ende nzulu empumlweni ayiyonto imnandi ncam. Kodwa iimvavanyo ze-coronavirus zidlala indima enkulu ekuthinteleni ukusasazeka kwe-COVID-19, kwaye ekugqibeleni, uvavanyo ngokwalo alunabungozi - ubuncinci, kubantu abaninzi, lunjalo.

ICYMI, uHilary Duff usandula ukwabelana ngamabali akhe e-Instagram ukuba unesifo samehlo ngeeholide "kuzo zonke iimvavanyo ze-COVID emsebenzini." Ukuphindaphinda umbhiyozo wakhe weholide, uDuff uthe umba waqala xa elinye lamehlo akhe "laqala ukubonakala lingaqhelekanga" kwaye "libuhlungu kakhulu." Intlungu ekugqibeleni yakhula yababuhlungu kangangokuba uDuff wathi "uthathe uhambo oluncinci waya kwigumbi likaxakeka," apho wanikwa iyeza lokubulala iintsholongwane.

Iindaba ezimnandi zezi, uDuff uqinisekisile kwiBali le-IG lamva ukuba amayeza okubulala iintsholongwane asebenze umlingo wawo kwaye iliso lakhe lilungile ngokupheleleyo ngoku.

Okwangoku, usenokuba uyazibuza ukuba usulelo lwamehlo oluvela kuvavanyo lwe-COVID ngokwenene luyinto ekufuneka ukhathazekile ngayo. Nantsi into ekufuneka uyazi.

Okokuqala, ukuphindaphinda kwiziseko zovavanyo ze-COVID-19.

Ngokubanzi, zimbini iintlobo eziphambili zovavanyo lokuqonda isifo lwe-SARS-CoV-2, intsholongwane ebangela i-COVID-19. Ulawulo lwezoKutya kunye noLawulo lweziyobisi (i-FDA) lwaphula iimvavanyo ngale ndlela:

• Uvavanyo lwePCR: Ikwabizwa ngokuba luvavanyo lwemolekyuli, olu vavanyo lujonga imathiriyeli yemfuza evela kwa-SARS-CoV-2. Uninzi lweemvavanyo ze-PCR lwenziwa ngokuthatha isampulu yesigulane kwaye iyithumele kwilebhu ukuze ihlalutywe.
• Uvavanyo lwe-antigen: Ikwaziwa njengovavanyo olukhawulezayo, uvavanyo lwe-antigen lufumanisa iiproteni ezithile ezivela kwi-SARS-CoV-2. Bagunyazisiwe ukuba bakhathalelwe kwaye banokwenziwa kwiofisi kagqirha, esibhedlele, okanye kwindawo yovavanyo.

Uvavanyo lwe-PCR ludla ngokuqokelelwa kunye ne-nasopharyngeal swab, esebenzisa isixhobo eside, esincinci, esifana ne-Q-tip-like isixhobo sokuthatha isampuli yeeseli ukusuka ngasemva kweempumlo zakho. Iimvavanyo ze-PCR zingenziwa kwakhona nge-swab yempumlo, efana ne-nasopharyngeal swab kodwa ayibuyeli emva. Ngelixa ingaqhelekanga, iimvavanyo ze-PCR zinokuqokelelwa ngokuhlamba impumlo okanye isampulu yamathe, kuxhomekeke kuvavanyo, ngokwe-FDA. Kodwa uvavanyo lwe-antigen luhlala luthathwa nge-nasopharyngeal okanye i-nasal swab. (Ngakumbi apha: Yonke into ekufuneka uyazi malunga novavanyo lweCoronavirus)

Ke, ngaba unokufumana usulelo lwamehlo kuvavanyo lwe-COVID?

Impendulo emfutshane: Ayinakwenzeka loo nto. Amaziko oLawulo lweNtsholongwane kunye noThintelo (CDC) awakhankanyi umngcipheko wokuba nosulelo lwamehlo emva kokuba ufumene naluphi na uhlobo lovavanyo lwe-COVID-19.

Ngaphezu koko, uphando lufumanise ukuba i-nasopharyngeal swabs esetyenziselwa ukwenza uninzi lweemvavanyo ze-COVID-19 zithathwa njengeyona ndlela ikhuselekileyo yovavanyo. Olunye uphononongo lwabantu abangama-3,083 ababenikwe iimvavanyo ze-swab ze-COVID-19 bafumanisa ukuba yi-0.026% kuphela eye yafumana uhlobo oluthile "lwesiganeko esibi," esasibandakanya ubukhulu becala (kunqabile) ukwenzeka kwesikratshi esaphuka ngaphakathi kwempumlo yomntu. Akuzange kukhankanywe ngemicimbi yamehlo kolu phando.

Olunye uphononongo oluthelekise iziphumo zorhwebo kunye ne-3D-eprintiweyo ye-swabs ifumanise ukuba kukho "iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga" ezinxulunyaniswa nolunye uhlobo lovavanyo. Ezo ziphumo zibandakanya ukungaphatheki kakuhle kwempumlo, intloko ebuhlungu, indlebe ebuhlungu, kunye ne-rhinorrhea (okt impumlo egudileyo). Kwakhona, akukho nto ikhankanyiweyo yosulelo lwamehlo.

Umntu angalufumana njani usulelo lwamehlo kuvavanyo lwe-COVID?

UDuff akazange anike inkcazo kwizithuba zakhe, kodwa uVivian Shibayama, OD, ugqirha wamehlo kwi-UCLA Health, wabelana ngethiyori enomdla: "I-nasal cavity yakho ixhunyiwe emehlweni akho. Ngoko ukuba unesifo sokuphefumula, sinokungena amehlo akho." (Idibeneyo: Ngaba ukunxiba abafowunelwa ngexesha leCoronavirus Pandemic Is Bad Idea?)

Kodwa uDuff akazange atsho ukuba wayenosulelo lokuphefumla ngexesha awayevavanywa ngalo; endaweni yoko, uthe usulelo lwamehlo sisiphumo "sazo zonke iimvavanyo ze-COVID" ebenazo mva nje emsebenzini wakhe njengomdlali weqonga. (Kutshanje kuye kwafuneka ahlukane yedwa emva kokuvezwa kwi-COVID-19.)

Kwaye, uDuff uthe wakwazi ukunyanga usulelo lwamehlo ngamayeza okubulala iintsholongwane-inkcukacha ebonisa ukuba unentsholongwane, endaweni yokosuleleka yintsholongwane, uphawula u-Aaron Zimmerman, O.D., unjingalwazi wezonyango zamehlo kwi-Ohio State University College of Optometry. (FTR, usulelo lokuphefumla unako ibe yintsholongwane, kodwa zihlala zintsholongwane, ngokweDuke Health.)

"Ekuphela kwendlela [onokufumana ngayo ukosuleleka kwamehlo kuvavanyo lwe-COVID] kukuba iswabi yonakele ngaphambi kokuba ifakwe," utshilo uZimmerman. Ukuba irabha engcolileyo iye yasetyenziswa kwi-nasopharynx yakho (okt umva kanye weendlela zakho zempumlo), ithiyori, umkhondo webhaktiriya okanye intsholongwane "inokufudukela kumphezulu weoyili njengoko amehlo ewela kwi-nasopharynx yakho kwaye ekugqibeleni umqala wakho," uyachaza. Kodwa, wongeza uZimmerman, oku "akunakulindeleka."

"Ngokuvavanywa kwe-COVID, ii-swabs kufuneka zingabinazintsholongwane, ngenxa yoko umngcipheko wosulelo [lweliso] kufuneka lube lincinci kuye," utshilo uShibayama. "Umntu owenza uvavanyo kufuneka afakwe iiglavu kwaye agqunywe ngesikhuselo sobuso," wongeza, ethetha ukuba naluphi na usulelo olunokuthi lubekho kumntu luye emntwini losulelo lwamehlo "kufuneka lube phantsi." (Eyeleleneyo: Yonke into ekufuneka uyazi malunga nokusasazeka kweCoronavirus)

Kuyinyani nokuba uvavanywa njani, kwaye ukuphinda uvavanyo lwe-COVID-19 akufuneki lwenze umahluko, nokuba. “Baninzi abantu abavavanywa ngalo lonke ixesha kungekho miba,” itsho ingcali yezifo ezosulelayo u-Amesh A. Adalja, MD, isifundiswa esiphezulu kwiZiko likaJohn Hopkins loKhuseleko lwezeMpilo. "Abadlali be-NBA kunye ne-NHL bavavanywa yonke imihla ngamaxesha abo kwaye bekungekho ngxelo zokosulelwa ngamehlo ngenxa yoko."

Umgca ongezantsi: "Akukho bungqina bokuba kuyenzeka ukuba uvavanyo lwe-COVID lunokukunika usulelo lwamehlo," utshilo uThomas Russo, MD, unjingalwazi kunye nentloko yesifo esosulelayo kwiYunivesithi yaseBuffalo.

Unaloo nto engqondweni, uGqr. Adalja ulumkisa ngokuthatha kakhulu kumava kaDuff. Ngamanye amagama, ngokuqinisekileyo akufuneki kukuthintele ekufumaneni uvavanyo lwe-COVID-19 ukuba uyifuna nini na. "Ukuba ufuna ukuvavanyelwa i-COVID-19, kuvavanywe," utshilo uGqirha Adalja.

Ulwazi kweli bali luchanekile ngexesha lokushicilelwa. Njengoko uhlaziyo malunga ne-coronavirus i-COVID-19 iqhubeka nokuvela, kunokwenzeka ukuba ulwazi kunye neengcebiso kweli bali zitshintshile okoko kwapapashwa okokuqala. Siyakukhuthaza ukuba ujonge rhoqo ngezixhobo ezinjenge-CDC, i-WHO, kunye nesebe lezempilo likarhulumente kwindawo yakho yokufumana olona lwazi lwanamhlanje kunye neengcebiso.
