Ua lohe anei ʻoe iā Anthrax? Mai hopohopo, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana.

Ke lohe ʻoe i ka huaʻōlelo anthrax , manaʻo paha ʻoe i kahi mea mai kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni Hollywood a i ʻole kahi moʻolelo weliweli i ka nūhou. He mea maʻamau ke manaʻo iki i ka makaʻu ke lohe ʻoe i kēia inoa. Akā ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, he maʻi laha ʻole kēia ma ko mākou ʻāina a ma ka honua hoʻi. Eia nō naʻe, he mea nui loa ka makaʻala i kēia. No laila e nānā kākou i ke ʻano o ka anthrax a pehea e pale aku ai iā ʻoe iho mai ia mea.

He aha maoli ka Anthrax?

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo ka anthrax kahi maʻi i hoʻokumu ʻia e kahi bacteria. Hoʻokumu ʻia ia e kahi ʻano bacteria i kapa ʻia ʻo 'Bacillus anthracis' . He hiki kupaianaha kēia bacteria. ʻO ia hoʻi, hiki iā ia ke ola no nā makahiki he nui ma nā wahi e like me ka lepo a me ka hulu holoholona ma o ka hana ʻana i kahi pūpū pale kūikawā i kapa ʻia ʻo spores ma lalo o nā kūlana kaiapuni maikaʻi ʻole.

E noʻonoʻo e like me kahi bacteria hiamoe. Ke komo ia i loko o ko kākou kino, loaʻa iā ia kahi wahi kūpono. A laila haki ka ʻaʻahu spore, ala aʻe nā bacteria, a hoʻomaka e hoʻonui. A laila hana nā bacteria i nā mea ʻawahia e hōʻino i ko kākou kino. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā hōʻailona e kēlā mau mea ʻawahia.

Pehea lā e loaʻa ai kēia maʻi iā kākou?

ʻIke pinepine ʻia kēia maʻi i nā holoholona mahiʻai e like me nā bipi, nā kao, a me nā hipa. He haʻahaʻa loa ka pilikia o ka loaʻa ʻana o kēia maʻi i nā kānaka. Eia nō naʻe, hiki ke laha kēia mau spores bacteria ma o kēia mau ʻano:

• Ma o kahi ʻeha ʻili: Ke hoʻopā aku kekahi mea i loaʻa nā spores bacteria, e like me ka lepo, ka huluhulu holoholona, ​​a i ʻole ka ʻili, i kahi ʻōpala a i ʻole kahi ʻeha ma ka ʻili. ʻO kēia ke ala maʻamau e loaʻa ai ka anthrax.
• Ma ka hanu ʻana: Ma ka hanu ʻana i nā spores lewa. ʻO kēia ke ʻano weliweli loa a koʻikoʻi loa .
• Ma ke ala meaʻai: Ma ka ʻai ʻana i ka ʻiʻo i moʻa ʻole ʻia i haumia me nā spores.
• Ma ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau: Ua hōʻike ʻia hoʻi kēia maʻi i waena o ka poʻe e hoʻokomo ana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau e like me ka heroin haumia. Eia naʻe, he mea kakaikahi loa kēia.

Ma ko mākou pōʻaiapili ma Sri Lanka, ʻo ka poʻe e hana ana ma nā mahiʻai, hana pū me nā holoholona, ​​​​a komo i ka ʻoihana ʻili holoholona, ​​​​​​ua pilikia nui lākou.

He aha nā hōʻailona? Pehea ʻoe e ʻike ai i kēia?

Aia nā hōʻailona o ka anthrax i ke ala e komo ai nā spores bacteria i ke kino, a ʻehā mau ʻano nui.

Āhea ʻoe e ʻike ai i ke kauka?

ʻO kēia ka mea nui loa. Inā he kānalua iki kou ua loaʻa paha iā ʻoe ka anthrax , ʻoiai inā ʻaʻohe ou hōʻailona , ​​e ʻike koke i ke kauka. A i ʻole e hele i ka Emergency Department (ETU) o ka haukapila kokoke loa.

Eia kekahi laʻana, inā ʻoe e hana me nā holoholona a ʻike koke i kahi ʻeha ʻeleʻele ʻē aʻe, ʻeha ʻole, ma kou ʻili, mai hoʻowahāwahā iā ia.

Inā nānā kāu kauka iā ʻoe a kānalua he anthrax paha kāu, e kauoha lākou i nā hoʻokolohua e like me kēia e hōʻoia i ka hōʻailona:

• Nā hoʻāʻo koko: E nānā i ke koko no nā antibodies e kūʻē i ka bacteria anthrax a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea ʻawahia i hana ʻia e ka bacteria.
• Ke nānā ʻana i kahi hāpana ʻili: Inā he ʻeha ʻili, lawe ʻia kahi hāpana liʻiliʻi a nānā ʻia ma lalo o kahi microscope.
• Nānā X-ray o ka umauma a i ʻole CT scan: Inā kānalua ʻia ka anthrax hanu.
• Hoʻāʻo ʻōpala: Inā kānalua ʻia ka maʻi ma o ke kahawai ʻai.
• Spinal Tap: He hoʻāʻo e lawe ana i kahi liʻiliʻi o ka wai (wai spinal) mai ke kaula spinal inā kānalua ʻia ka maningitis.

He aha nā lāʻau lapaʻau?

He maʻi hiki ke ho'ōla loa ʻia ka Anthrax inā ʻike ʻia a mālama ʻia i ka wā mua. ʻO ka hoʻopaneʻe ʻana i ka mālama ʻana ka mea weliweli loa.

ʻO ka lāʻau lapaʻau nui, ʻo ia nā antibiotics . Ma muli o ke koʻikoʻi o ka maʻi, pono paha e lawe ʻia kēia mau lāʻau no 60 mau lā. I nā hihia koʻikoʻi, pono ka hoʻokipa ʻia ʻana i ka haukapila a hāʻawi ʻia nā antibiotics ma ke ʻano intravenous (IV) ma o ka saline.

I kekahi manawa, hāʻawi ʻia kahi ʻano lāʻau lapaʻau kūikawā i kapa ʻia he antitoxin e hoʻopau i nā mea ʻawahia i hana ʻia e ka bacteria i loko o ke kino.

Aia kekahi lāʻau pale no kēia?

ʻAe, aia kahi lāʻau pale e pale aku ai i ka anthrax. Akā, ʻaʻole ia he lāʻau pale no ka lehulehu. Hāʻawi wale ʻia kēia lāʻau pale i ka poʻe i loaʻa i ka pilikia kiʻekiʻe loa . ʻO ia hoʻi:

• ʻO ka poʻe e hana ana i nā keʻena hoʻokolohua me nā bacteria anthrax.
• Ua hana kekahi poʻe i nā ʻoihana e pili ana i nā ʻili holoholona a me ka huluhulu.
• Nā luna koa ma kekahi mau ʻāina.

No laila, ʻaʻole pono ke kanaka maʻamau e hopohopo e pili ana i kēia lāʻau pale.
