In these two days, the “Dongguan CDC†WeChat public account on the “old people, children, I have not let go; the school, the factory, I everywhere in the strange†article attracted crazy praise. Behind the humorous language is the fact that norovirus causes high incidence of infectious diarrhea. The relevant person in charge of the Dongguan City Disease Control Center reminded parents that children should pay attention to prevention.
High in winter and spring
Yesterday afternoon, the relevant person in charge of the Dongguan Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention said that Norovirus is a common pathogen that causes infectious diarrhea, which occurs frequently in winter and spring. Both children and adults can have morbidity, with vomiting predominant in children and more common in adults.
Norovirus can be transmitted through the consumption of food contaminated with the virus, and can also be transmitted through direct contact with the infected and contaminated surfaces.
The person in charge said that monitoring data from the Dongguan CDC showed that every year, the number of cases of infectious diarrhea in Dongguan will gradually increase from September, and the period of high incidence will occur in November and continue until March of the following year. At present, the number of cases of infectious diarrhea in Dongguan is slightly higher than that of the same period of last year. Etiological surveillance showed that Norovirus is the dominant virus, which is consistent with the same period of last year.
According to experts, infectious diarrhea may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, and some may also experience low fever, headache, chills, and muscle aches. The disease is self-limited, and most patients have mild symptoms, as long as they are timely and appropriate. Supplementary fluids or symptomatic treatment usually recover after 1 to 3 days and have a good prognosis.
However, there are also very serious cases in which dehydration may occur. Patients with severe illness, especially young children, poor physical health, or patients with underlying diseases should promptly visit a regular medical institution.
“If you find that there is an incident of congestive vomiting or diarrhea in this unit, you should promptly send the patient to a hospital for treatment and report to the relevant local authorities. In addition, wear masks before cleaning up the patient’s vomitus or diarrhea.†said the expert, because When exposed to a Norovirus-contaminated object and spread it to the mouth, it can also be infected.
Patients need to stay away from the kitchen
Recently, there have been a number of Norovirus-induced aggregations in various parts of the country. Parents of children in Dongguan have begun to worry.
To this end, disease control experts have warned that patients should try to avoid close contact with healthy family members if they are recruited.
In addition, daily necessities such as tableware and towels should be used independently, and it is best to use a dedicated toilet; from the time of illness to the disappearance of symptoms, it is not possible to cook for three days, but also to stay away from the kitchen and avoid contact with drinking fountains; faeces and vomit must be promptly cleaned up. Clean and disinfect contaminated items and places.
Members of the public must eat cooked foods, drink boiling water, and eat cold or undercooked food (especially oysters and other shellfish). If there is diarrhea or vomiting 3 times a day or more, you should go to the hospital promptly.
