Ingabe ingane yakho encane nayo isithole i-COVID-19? Ungesabi, yazi lokhu!

Ngakho-ke, into wonke umuntu akhuluma ngayo kulezi zinsuku ubhubhane lwe-Covid (COVID-19). Cishe uyazi ukuthi izingane zethu ezincane zingayithola njengabantu abadala. Kodwa isikhathi esiningi, uma kwenzeka ezinganeni ezincane, ayibi kakhulu kunangabantu abadala. Kodwa njengomama noma ubaba, kuyinto evamile ukwesaba noma yikuphi ukugula ingane encane ekutholayo. Ngakho-ke namuhla, ake sixoxe nge-Covid (COVID-19) lezi zingane ezincane ezingayithola.

Iyini i-COVID-19 ezinganeni?

Kalula nje, i-COVID-19 iyisifo sokuphefumula esithelelanayo kakhulu . Ingathinta noma ubani, omncane noma omdala. Ibangelwa igciwane elibizwa nge-SARS-CoV-2. Izingane, ezivame ukuba zincane kunabantu abadala, zingase zingabonisi izimpawu lapho ziyithola, noma ingase ivele idlule njengomkhuhlane.

Kodwa-ke, kwabanye abantwana, kungaba kubi kakhulu . Uma kunjalo, kungadingeka ukuthi bangeniswe esibhedlela futhi belashwe, ngezinye izikhathi ngisho nase-Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Izingane ezinezinye izimo zezokwelapha eziyisisekelo, njengesifo sikashukela sohlobo 2 , isifo senhliziyo , noma isifo samaphaphu, zisengozini enkulu yokuthola i-COVID-19 embi kakhulu.

Kodwa-ke, kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi ngisho nezingane ezingenazo izimo zezokwelapha eziyisisekelo ngezinye izikhathi zingagula kakhulu nge-COVID-19, ikakhulukazi uma zingakagonywa . Yingakho odokotela bezingane behlala bencoma ukuthi izingane zithole umuthi wokugomela i-COVID-19. Kubalulekile futhi ukuthi wonke umuntu ekhaya athole imithamo yakhe yomjovo we-COVID-19. Lokhu kuzovikela izingane ezingaphansi kwezinyanga eziyisithupha ubudala, ezingakwazi ukugonywa, kanye nabanye abangase babe nokugula kakhulu.

Ziyini izimpawu ze-COVID-19 ezinganeni?

Eqinisweni, kungaba nzima kancane ukubona ukuthi ingane yakho ine-COVID-19 ngokusekelwe ezimpawini zodwa. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi izimpawu ze-COVID-19 zifana kakhulu nezimpawu zezinye izifo esivame ukuzibona, njenge -flu noma i-RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) .

Izimpawu ezivame kakhulu ze-COVID-19 ezinganeni yilezi:

• Umkhuhlane (lona ovame kakhulu)
