Abasetyhini abakhulelweyo abaninzi e-US baneZika kunokuba unokucinga, itsho iNgxelo entsha

Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Ubhubhane weZika e-US unokuba mbi kunokuba besicinga, ngokweengxelo zamva nje ezivela kumagosa. Ibetha ngokusesikweni abasetyhini abakhulelweyo-ngokuqinisekileyo lelona qela lisemngciphekweni-ngendlela enkulu. (Ufuna uhlaziyo? Izinto ezi-7 omele uzazi malunga neNtsholongwane kaZika.)

NgoLwesihlanu, amaZiko oLawulo lweSifo kunye noThintelo (CDC) abhengeze ukuba i-279 yabasetyhini abakhulelweyo e-United States kunye nemimandla yayo baye baqinisekisa iimeko zeZika-157 zamatyala axeliweyo akwilizwekazi lase-United States kwaye i-122 ixelwe kwiindawo zase-US ezifana Poto Rikho.

Ezi ngxelo zibalulekile (kwaye zoyikisayo) ngeendlela ezimbalwa. Eli nani lelokuqala ukubandakanya bonke abantu basetyhini abaye baqinisekiswa ngokusesikweni kwilebhu yeZika. Ngaphambili, i-CDC yayilandelela kuphela iimeko apho abafazi babonisa iimpawu zeZika, kodwa la manani abandakanya abafazi abangenayo nayiphi na impawu yangaphandle kodwa basesengozini yemiphumo emibi i-Zika ingaba nayo kwi-fetus.

Ingxelo entsha ikwaqaqambise inyani yokuba nokuba awubonakalisi zimpawu, uZika usenokubeka ukukhulelwa kwakho emngciphekweni we-microcephaly-isiphene esibi sokuzalwa esibangela ukuba umntwana azalwe enentloko encinci ngokungaqhelekanga ngenxa yokukhula kwengqondo okungaqhelekanga. Kwaye kubalulekile ukuba uqaphele ukuba uninzi lwabantu olosulelwe nguZika alubonisi zimpawu, sesona sizathu sokuthetha nogqirha wakho ukuba ucinga ukuba ikhona indlela onokuba semngciphekweni ngayo. (Kodwa masicacise ezinye iinyani malunga neZika Virus yeeOlimpiki.)

Ngokwe-CDC, uninzi lwabasetyhini abakhulelweyo abangama-279 abanesifo esiqinisekisiweyo sikaZika bayifumene le ntsholongwane ngelixa besiya phesheya kwiindawo ezinobungozi. Nangona kunjalo, iarhente ikwaxela ukuba amanye amatyala sisiphumo sosulelo, kugxininisa ukubaluleka kokusebenzisa ukhuseleko naxa ukhulelwe. (I-FYI: Abantu baninzi bayayibamba i-Zika Virus njenge-STD.)

Eyona nto iphambili: Ukuba ukhulelwe okanye ucinga ngokukhulelwa kwaye ubukwindawo enobungozi obukhulu kwiZika, zise kumgqirha wakho. Inokukunceda kuphela!
