Izimpawu ze-covid19

I-COVID-19 isifo esithathelwanayo kakhulu sokuphefumula esibangelwa igciwane elisha, noma inoveli, elibizwa nge-SARS-CoV-2. I-COVID-19 isakazeka ngokushesha emhlabeni wonke nase-United States.

Izimpawu ze-COVID-19 zingahluka ukusuka komoya kuya kokunzima. Izimpawu zingafaka:

• Imfiva
• Amakhaza
• Khwehlela
• Ukuphefumula kanzima noma ukuphefumula kanzima
• Ukukhathala
• Ubuhlungu bemisipha
• Ubuhlungu bekhanda
• Ukulahleka komuzwa wokunambitha noma wokuhogela
• Umphimbo obuhlungu
• Impumu eminyene noma egijimayo
• Isicanucanu nokuhlanza
• Uhudo

(Qaphela: Lolu akulona uhlu oluphelele lwezimpawu ezingaba khona. Okuningi kungangezwa njengoba ochwepheshe bezempilo befunda kabanzi ngalesi sifo.)

Abanye abantu kungenzeka bangabi nazimpawu nhlobo noma babe nazo, kepha hhayi zonke izimpawu.

Izimpawu zingakhula zingakapheli izinsuku ezimbili kuya kwezingu-14 ngemuva kokuvezwa yigciwane. Ngokuvamile, izimpawu zivela ezinsukwini eziyisi-5 ngemuva kokuchayeka. Kodwa-ke, ungasabalalisa leli gciwane noma ngabe awunazo izimpawu.

Izimpawu ezinzima kakhulu ezidinga ukufuna usizo lwezokwelapha zisuka nje zifaka:

• Ukuphefumula kanzima
• Ubuhlungu besifuba noma ingcindezi eqhubekayo
• Ukudideka
• Ukungakwazi ukuvuka
• Izindebe noma ubuso obuhlaza okwesibhakabhaka

Abantu asebekhulile nabantu abanezimo ezithile zezempilo ezikhona basengozini enkulu yokuba nokugula okunzima nokufa. Izimo zezempilo ezandisa ubungozi bakho zifaka:

• Isifo senhliziyo
• Isifo sezinso
• I-COPD (isifo esingapheliyo sokuphazamiseka kwamaphaphu)
• Ukukhuluphala ngokweqile (i-BMI engama-30 noma ngaphezulu)
• Thayipha 2 sikashukela
• Thayipha isifo sikashukela sokuqala
• Ukufakelwa komzimba
• Umdlavuza
• Isifo se-Sickle cell
• Ukubhema
• I-Down syndrome
• Ukukhulelwa

Ezinye izimpawu ze-COVID-19 ziyefana nezomkhuhlane ovamile nomkhuhlane, ngakho-ke kungaba nzima ukwazi ngokuqinisekile ukuthi unalo yini igciwane le-SARS-CoV-2. Kepha i-COVID-19 ayiwona umkhuhlane, futhi ayiwona umkhuhlane.

Ukuphela kwendlela yokwazi ukuthi unayo yini i-COVID-19 wukuhlolwa. Uma ufuna ukuhlolwa, kufanele uxhumane nomhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwempilo. Ungavakashela futhi iwebhusayithi yakho yomnyango wezempilo noma yendawo. Lokhu kuzokunikeza umhlahlandlela wakamuva wendawo ekuhlolweni.

Iningi labantu abanesifo banezimpawu eziphakathi nendawo kuya kokuphakathi futhi balulama ngokuphelele. Noma ngabe uyahlolwa noma cha, uma unezimpawu ze-COVID-19, kufanele ugweme ukuxhumana nabanye abantu ukuze ungasabalalisi ukugula.

I-United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) neWorld Health Organisation (WHO) zibheka i-COVID-19 njengosongo olukhulu kwezempilo yomphakathi. Ukuze uthole izindaba nolwazi lwakamuva kakhulu mayelana ne-COVID-19, ungavakashela amawebhusayithi alandelayo:

I-COVID-19 ibangelwa igciwane le-SARS-CoV-2 (i-acute acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2). AmaCoronaviruses awumndeni wamagciwane angathinta abantu nezilwane. Zingadala ukugula okuphefumulayo kuya kokuqinile.

I-COVID-19 isakazeka kubantu abaseduze (cishe ngamamitha ayisithupha noma amamitha amabili). Lapho umuntu onalesi sifo ekhwehlela noma ethimula, amaconsi athelelekayo afafaza emoyeni. Ungakubamba ukugula uma uphefumula noma uthinta lezi zinhlayiya bese uthinta ubuso bakho, impumulo, umlomo noma amehlo.

Uma une-COVID-19 noma ucabanga ukuthi unayo, kufanele uzihlukanise ekhaya futhi ugweme ukuxhumana nabanye abantu, ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwekhaya lakho, ukugwema ukusabalalisa ukugula. Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi ukuhlala wedwa ekhaya noma ukuzihlukanisa ngokwakho. Kufanele wenze lokhu ngokushesha futhi ungalindi noma yikuphi ukuhlolwa kwe-COVID-19.

• Kangangokunokwenzeka, hlala ekamelweni elilodwa futhi ungahlali nabanye ekhaya lakho. Sebenzisa indlu yangasese ehlukile uma ungakwazi. Ungashiyi ikhaya lakho ngaphandle kokuthola usizo lwezempilo uma kudingeka.
• Ungahambi ngenkathi ugula. Ungasebenzisi izinto zokuhamba zomphakathi noma amatekisi.
  
• Gcina umkhondo wezimpawu zakho. Ungathola imiyalo yokuthi ungabheka kanjani futhi ubike izimpawu zakho.
  
• Sebenzisa isifihla-buso sobuso lapho unabantu egumbini elilodwa nalapho ubona umhlinzeki wakho. Uma ungeke ukwazi ukugqoka imaski, abantu ekhaya lakho kufanele bagqoke imaski uma bedinga ukuba segumbini elilodwa nawe.
• Gwema ukuthintana nezilwane ezifuywayo noma ezinye izilwane. (I-SARS-CoV-2 ingasakazeka isuka kubantu iye ezilwaneni, kodwa akwaziwa ukuthi lokhu kwenzeka kangaki.) Vala umlomo wakho namakhala ngesicubu noma umkhono (hhayi izandla zakho) lapho ukhwehlela noma uthimula. Phonsa izicubu ngemuva kokusetshenziswa.
• Geza izandla zakho kaningi ngensipho namanzi okungenani imizuzwana engama-20. Yenza lokhu ngaphambi kokudla noma ukulungisa ukudla, ngemuva kokusebenzisa indlu yangasese, nangemva kokukhwehlela, ukuthimula noma ukushaya amakhala. Sebenzisa i-sanitizer yezandla enotshwala (okungenani i-60% yotshwala) uma insipho namanzi kungatholakali.
• Gwema ukuthinta ubuso, amehlo, ikhala nomlomo ngezandla ezingageziwe.
• Ungabelani ngezinto zakho siqu njengezinkomishi, izinto zokudla, amathawula noma okombhede. Geza noma yini oyisebenzise ensipho nasemanzini. Sebenzisa i-sanitizer yezandla enotshwala (okungenani i-60% yotshwala) uma insipho namanzi kungatholakali.
• Hlanza zonke izindawo "ezithinta kakhulu" ekhaya, ezinjengezinsimbi zomnyango, izindlu zangasese nezindawo zasekhishini, izindlu zangasese, amafoni, amaphilisi, nezinto zokubala nezinye izindawo. Sebenzisa isifutho sokuhlanza indlu bese ulandela imiyalo yokusetshenziswa.
• Kufanele uhlale ekhaya futhi ugweme ukuxhumana nabantu kuze kube yilapho umhlinzeki wakho ekutshela ukuthi kuphephile ukuqeda ukuhlala wedwa ekhaya.

Ukusiza ekwelapheni izimpawu ze-COVID-19, amathiphu alandelayo angasiza.

• Phumula futhi uphuze uketshezi oluningi.
• I-Acetaminophen (Tylenol) ne-ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) zisiza ekwehliseni umkhuhlane. Kwesinye isikhathi, abahlinzeki bakweluleka ukuthi usebenzise zombili izinhlobo zemithi. Thatha inani elinconyiwe ukunciphisa umkhuhlane. UNGAYisebenzisi ibuprofen ezinganeni izinyanga eziyisithupha noma ngaphansi.
• I-Aspirin isebenza kahle ukwelapha umkhuhlane kubantu abadala. UNGAYINIKI i-aspirin ingane (engaphansi kweminyaka engu-18) ngaphandle uma umhlinzeki wengane yakho ekutshela ukuthi ukwenze.
• Ukugeza okufudumele noma ukugeza isiponji kungasiza ukupholisa umkhuhlane. Qhubeka uphuza umuthi - uma kungenjalo izinga lokushisa kwakho lingabuyela emuva.
• Uma unesikhwehlela esomile nesikitazayo, zama amaconsi okukhwehlela noma uswidi onzima.
• Sebenzisa i-vaporizer noma uthathe ishawa esishisayo ukwandisa umswakama emoyeni futhi usize ukuthambisa umphimbo owomile nokukhwehlela.
• Ungabhemi, futhi uhlale kude nentuthu kagwayi.

Kufanele uxhumane nomhlinzeki wakho ngokushesha:

• Uma unezimpawu futhi ucabanga ukuthi kungenzeka uvezwe ku-COVID-19
• Uma une-COVID-19 futhi izimpawu zakho ziya ngokuya ziba zimbi

Shayela ku-911 noma inombolo ephuthumayo yendawo uma une:

• Ukuphefumula kanzima
• Ubuhlungu besifuba noma ingcindezi
• Ukudideka noma ukungakwazi ukuvuka
• Izindebe noma ubuso obuhlaza okwesibhakabhaka
• Noma yiziphi ezinye izimpawu ezinzima noma ezikukhathazayo

Ngaphambi kokuya ehhovisi likadokotela noma emnyangweni ophuthumayo wesibhedlela (ED), shayela phambili ubatshele ukuthi unayo noma ucabanga ukuthi ungaba ne-COVID-19. Batshele nganoma yiziphi izimo ezingaphansi ongase ube nazo, njengesifo senhliziyo, isifo sikashukela, noma isifo samaphaphu. Gqoka imaski yobuso bendwangu enezingqimba okungenani ezimbili uma uvakashela ihhovisi noma i-ED, ngaphandle uma kukwenza kube nzima kakhulu ukuphefumula. Lokhu kuzosiza ukuvikela abanye abantu ohlangana nabo.

Umhlinzeki wakho uzobuza mayelana nezimpawu zakho, noma ikuphi ukuhamba kwakamuva, nanoma ikuphi ukuvezwa kwe-COVID-19. Umhlinzeki wakho angathatha amasampula we-swab ngemuva kwekhala lakho nomphimbo. Uma kudingeka, umhlinzeki wakho angathatha namanye amasampula, njengegazi noma isikhwehlela.

Uma izimpawu zakho zingakhombisi isimo esiphuthumayo sezokwelapha, umhlinzeki wakho anganquma ukuqapha izimpawu zakho ngenkathi ululama ekhaya. Kuzofanele uhlale kude nabanye ngaphakathi kwekhaya lakho futhi ungaphumi endlini kuze kube umhlinzeki wakho uthi ungayeka ukuhlala wedwa ekhaya. Ukuze uthole izimpawu ezibucayi, ungadinga ukuya esibhedlela ukuze unakekelwe.
