I-Amoeba Iingcebiso zoKhuseleko kwi-Central Florida
Amoebas. Kwamanzi ethu. Sonke sivile ngabo. Abazali bethu basilumkisa ngabo. Kodwa ngaba ngokwenene?
Ngokuqinisekileyo akuqhelekanga, kodwa ngonyaka unabantu abambalwa abanesifo sengqondo yokutya i-amoebas. Phantse bonke bafe.
Ii-Amoebas zizinto ezinobomi ezinamatshini angama-cell. Uhlobo lwe-amoeba oluchaphazela abagijimi, luya echotsheni kwaye lubangela izifo kuthiwa yiNaegleria fowleri.
Iifudumele ezifudumeleyo kunye namachibi amaninzi e-Orlando yenza iCentral Florida ibe yindawo ephezulu yobungozi.
Kubalulekile ukwazi apho i-amoebas ihlala khona kunye nendlela yokuzikhusela wena kunye nosapho lwakho kwintsholongwane.
YIphi I-AMOEBAS LIVE?
- I-Naegleria amoebas ihlala kwaye ikhula emanzini afudumele. Yingakho iingxelo zentsholongwane eUnited States ziqala kwiinyanga zasehlobo. I-Amoebas ikwazi ukuphila kumanzi amanzi ama-113 degrees Fahrenheit.
- I-Amoebas ifumaneka kwiindawo ezininzi, kuquka amachibi kunye namachibi, imifula ehambayo, imithombo yamanzi kunye nama-spas, izidaka zamadaka, amanzi angaphathwa kakuhle, imithombo yamanzi, ukuqokelela kwamanzi aphilileyo kwimithombo yamanzi, i-aquarium kunye nomhlaba.
- I-Naegleria amoebas ayikwazi ukuhlala kwindawo yamanzi etyuwa okanye kumachibi aphethe kakuhle okanye amanzi kamasipala.
- I-Florida kunye neTexas zihlala kwikhaya elingaphezu kwesiqingatha sazo zonke i-N. fowleri kwizifo eMelika. Izifo kunye nokufa kuyenzeka kwiCentral Florida.
INDLELA YOKUSEBENZA NGI-AMOEBAS INDLELA YOKUSEBENZA?
- I-N. fowleri isifo esithintekayo. Awukwazi ukubamba omnye kumntu ogulayo, okanye ukusasaba isiselo nomntu osulelekileyo. Akusebenzi ngaloo ndlela.
- Uninzi lwezifo e-United States zenzeka kubantwana (60%) kwaye eso sifo sibonakala ngokubonakala kumadoda (80%).
- I-Amoebas ihamba ngeempumlo ukuya kwingqondo, yingakho izifo zivame ukuvela emva kokunyukka kwamanzi, ukudilika okanye ukubandakanya kwimidlalo yamanzi. Le mi sebenzi yenza ukuba amanzi atyanzelwe impumlo.
- Ngokuqhelekileyo ukondla kwiibhaktheriya, i-Naegleria amoeba iqala ukusebenzisa ingqondo njengomthombo wokutya emva kokusulela umntu.
- Iintsholongwane zenzeke ngenxa yokusetyenziswa kwamanzi amathintelo angaphathwanga kwiipatti ze-neti xa uhlamba amatye. Iingcaphephe zincoma kuphela ukusebenzisa amanzi adibeneyo kwiipoti ze-neti ngenxa yesi sizathu.
ZINTONI IZIMPENDULO ZOKUSEBENZA?
- Usulelo lwe-N. fowleri amoebas, olubizwa ngokuba yi-primary amoebic meningoencephalitis, alunqabile; lwenzeka rhoqo ukuya kwizihlandlo ezisibhozo ngonyaka, phantse kuphela ngoJulayi, ngo-Agasti noSeptemba.
- Abanye abantu banokuba ne-antibodies kwi-amoebas, oku kuthetha ukuba banokusuleleka ngentsholongwane kwaye baphumele ngempumelelo ngosulelo ngaphandle kokuvelisa iimpawu zesifo.
- Iimpawu zesifo zivela kwiintsuku ezimbini ukuya kwezi-15 emva kokusuleleka kwintsholongwane kunye ne-amoeba. Ukufa kufana phakathi kweentsuku ezintathu ukuya kwezixhenxe zeempawu ezibonakalayo. Inqabile kakhulu ukuba umntu onompawu aphile sisifo.
- I-meningoencephaphalisi yaseprayimari iqala njengemilenze ye-viral and ingabangela intloko, intamo eqinile, umkhuhlane, ukulahleka kwesidlo, ukuguquka kwesimo sengqondo, ukuhlanza, ukuxhatshazwa okanye i-coma. Ezinye iimpawu zingakho.
- Kukho izidakamizwa eziliqela ukubulala iN. fowleri amoebas, kodwa ngokungaqhelekanga zithuthukise izinga lokusinda, mhlawumbi ngenxa yokuba isifo siphuma kakhulu emva kokuba iimpawu ziqala kwaye kuboniswe isizathu.
INDLELA YOKUVIKELA UKUNYELWA KWE-NAEGLERIA FOWLERI AMOEBAS
- Ukugwema imithombo yamanzi e-amoebas, efana namachibi afudumele kunye namachibi angaphathwanga, kuyisinyathelo sokuqala sokuthintela ukuthintela.
- Ngenxa yokuba i-N. fowleri amoeba inokufikelela kwingqondo ngokusebenzisa impumlo, imidlalo yamanzi, ukubhukuda kwamanzi kunye neminye imisebenzi ephoqelelisa amanzi kwimpumlo kufuneka igwenywe ngexesha lehlobo.
- Ukugqoka iklip yephunga xa ukushayela, ukubhukuda okanye ukudlala kumanzi afudumele okanye kufudumele kukunceda.
- Khetha enye yamanzi aseMzansi yaseFlorida endaweni yamachibi asekuhlaleni. Ukushisa okuphantsi kweemithombo ezipholileyo kunceda ukunqanda usulelo lwe-amoebas.
- Ukugwema izibonda zodaka kunye neebhanki zomlambo odakeni kuza kunciphisa umngcipheko wakho wokusuleleka. Oku kuqhelekanga, kodwa kunokwenzeka, indlela yokusuleleka.
- Sebenzisa kuphela amanzi adibeneyo okanye oyinyumba kwiipotti ze-neti xa uhlamba impumlo. Ukuba oku akunakwenzeka, kubalulekile ukubilisa amanzi okupompo ubuncinane ngomzuzu omnye uze upholise ngaphambi kokusebenzisa.
