He aha ke kumu o ka maʻi West Nile?

He maʻi ʻo West Nile no ka hui o nā "Arboviruses." I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo "Arboviruses" he mau maʻi e hoʻopilikia i nā arthropods - nā holoholona me nā wāwae hono, me nā pepeke. He "maʻi RNA" ia a no ka ʻohana "Flavivirus". Ua lohe paha ʻoe i ka maʻi Dengue, ka maʻi Yellow fever, a me ka maʻi Zika. No ka ʻohana "Flavivirus" nō hoʻi kēlā mau maʻi.

Pehea e hoʻopilikia ai ka maʻi West Nile iā mākou?

Hoʻolaha nui ʻia ia ma o ka nahu ʻana o kahi makika i loaʻa i ka maʻi . Loaʻa pinepine i nā makika ka maʻi mai kahi manu i loaʻa i ka maʻi. (ʻAʻohe hōʻike i kēia manawa e hiki ke loaʻa pololei i nā kānaka mai nā manu.) A laila hoʻonui ka maʻi, a ulu paha, i loko o ka makika. A laila komo ka maʻi i kou kino ke nahu kēlā makika iā ʻoe a i ʻole kekahi holoholona ʻē aʻe.

ʻO ka manawa e pono ai kēia maʻi e komo i ke kino a hōʻike i nā hōʻailona, ​​​​i ʻike ʻia ʻo ka wā incubation , he ʻelua a ʻeono lā paha, akā i kekahi manawa hiki ke piʻi i 14 mau lā.

Kākaʻikahi loa, ʻo ia hoʻi, kākaʻikahi loa, ua hōʻike ʻia ka laha ʻana o ka maʻi West Nile ma nā ʻano ʻē aʻe. ʻO kēia mau mea:

• Mai ka makuahine hāpai a i ke keiki i loko o ka ʻōpū.
• Ma o ka waiū umauma.
• Hoʻoili koko.
• He hoʻoili kino.

Ke laha nei ka maʻi West Nile mai ke kanaka a i ke kanaka?

He mea nui kēia. ʻAʻole laha ka maʻi West Nile mai ke kanaka a i ke kanaka . ʻO ia hoʻi, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa mai ka hoʻopā ʻana, kamaʻilio ʻana, a i ʻole ka hoʻopā ʻana i kahi mea a kekahi i loaʻa i ka maʻi i hoʻohana ai. Hoʻolaha wale ʻia e nā makika (koe wale nō i nā hihia kakaikahi loa, e like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia ma luna).

ʻO wai ka mea i ʻoi aku ka nui o ka pilikia o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka maʻi kuni West Nile?

ʻOiai hiki i nā makika ke nahu i kekahi, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka pilikia o kekahi poʻe i ka maʻi nui inā loaʻa iā lākou ka maʻi West Nile. Hiki paha iā ʻoe ke piʻi aʻe ka pilikia no kēia mau kumu:
