Imfucuza ingenye yezifo ezivame kakhulu ezibangelwa igciwane lesandulela ngculazi, ezithunyelwa kalula kusuka kumuntu ogulayo ukuya emthonjeni onomoya onempilo. Igciwane lisakazeka ngokushesha futhi lithola uhlamvu lwesifo. Njalo ngonyaka, ochwepheshe bezokwelapha bazama ukwakha imishanguzo emisha, kodwa unyaka ngamunye umkhuhlane uguqula izindawo zawo futhi ngakho-ke imishanguzo endala ayibalulekile. Umkhuhlane we-2013 yi-H3N2 ye-modified modified. Eqenjini, ingozi yesifo somkhuhlane, ekuqaleni, yizingane. Ngakho-ke, bonke abazali bakhuthazwa ukuba bafunde izibonakaliso ezibonakalayo zomkhuhlane we-2013 ezinganeni kanye nezindlela zokuvimbela.
Ukhuhlane luqala kanjani ezinganeni?
Njengomthetho, izimpawu zokuqala zomkhuhlane ezinganeni zibonakala ngosuku lokuqala emva kokutheleleka, futhi ngemuva kwezinsuku ezingu-1-2 ungabona isithombe esigcwele sesifo. Lokhu kutheleleka ngegciwane kukhula ngokujulile, kuyilapho izimpawu zomkhuhlane we-2013 ezinganeni zivame ukubonakaliswa kwezimpawu zegciwane:
- ukushisa okuphakeme kwama-38 degrees, okugcina okungenani kwezinsuku ezingu-5;
- ukulahlekelwa isifiso, isicanucanu;
- isimo se-febrile nesibindi esinzima, ubuthakathaka;
- ikhanda elikhulayo;
- ama-aches emalungwini nasemisipha;
- ubuhlungu obucasuliwe emqaleni, kuba umkhuhlane owomile;
- ikhala eligijima.
Kumele kuqashelwe ukuthi akuzona zonke izimpawu ezingenhla ezibonakaliswa ngesikhathi esifanayo, kuncike kakhulu ekufakeni isifo. Ngendlela encane yomkhuhlane, umkhuhlane wengane awukhuphuki ngaphezu kwama-degrees angu-39, ngobuthakathaka obuthakathaka kanye nobunzima. Ukushisa komzimba kungakhuphula ama-degrees angaphezu kwangu-40 ngesimo esinzima somkhuhlane, ngaphezu kwalokho, izingane zinezinhlanzi, ukuhlanza, ukuxubana, ukucubungula, ngisho nokulahlekelwa ukwazi.
Ngokuphathelene nezinsana, izimpawu zokuqala ze-influenza zingase zibe nokukhathazeka ngokweqile, ukwenqabela isifuba, ukuphindaphindiwe njalo. Izingane ziba buthakathaka, zingalala isikhathi eside noma, ngokuphambene, zingalali usuku lonke.
Ukuqaphela ukuthi ingane inomkhuhlane, hhayi umkhuhlane ovamile?
Ukuhlukanisa ukubonakaliswa komkhuhlane ovamile ovela emkhuhlane kufana lula, nakuba izimpawu zabo zifana kakhulu. Umkhuhlane ngokuvamile uqala ngomkhuhlane, umphimbo obuhlungu nokukhwehlela okuncane. Ukushisa komzimba akuvami ukuphakama kuma-degree angu-38, kanti uma kwenzeka umkhuhlane, ezinsukwini zokuqala zesifo, kuthathwa njengokushisa okungenani. Phakathi kwezinye izinto, isimo somntwana ngokuvamile asiphuli.
Kuyingozi kangakanani umkhuhlane wezi-2013 ezinganeni?
Ngeshwa, leli gciwane ngaphansi kwezimo ezithile libulalayo kubantu. Kuze kube manje, ukufa okuningi kuyaziwa emhlabeni jikelele, ikakhulukazi ezinganeni nasebekhulile. Igciwane lesandulela ngculaza lika-2013 lingaba yingozi kakhulu ezinganeni eziye zahluleka ukuzivikela noma zinezinye izifo ezimbi.
