Isikhathi semikhuhlane salo nyaka besingejwayelekile. Okokuqala, i-H3N2, uhlobo olubi kakhulu lomkhuhlane, ibilokhu ikhula ngokuqhubekayo. Manje, umbiko omusha we-CDC uthi noma isizini ifinyelele umvuthwandaba ngoFebhuwari, ayikhombisi izimpawu zokwehla. (Okuhlobene: Sinini Isikhathi Esingcono Sokuthola Isibhamu Somkhuhlane?)

Ngokuvamile, inkathi yomkhuhlane iqala ngo-Okthoba kuze kube nguMeyi futhi iqala ukuhlehla ngasekupheleni kukaFebhuwari noma uMashi. Kulo nyaka, noma kunjalo, umsebenzi womkhuhlane ungahlala uphakanyisiwe ngo-Ephreli, ngokusho kweCDC-okuwumsebenzi ophakeme kakhulu wesizini owake waqopha selokhu baqala ukulandela umkhuhlane eminyakeni engama-20 edlule.

"Amazinga okugula njengomkhuhlane abesezingeni lokuqala noma ngaphezulu kwamasonto ayi-17 kule sizini," kusho umbiko. Ngokuqhathanisa, izinkathi ezinhlanu zokugcina sezilinganise kuphela amasonto ayi-16 noma ngaphezulu kwamazinga womkhuhlane wokuqala. (Okuhlobene: Ingabe Umuntu Onempilo Angabulawa Umkhuhlane?)

I-CDC iphinde yaphawula ukuthi iphesenti lokuvakashelwa kwezokwelapha ngezimpawu ezinjengomkhuhlane kube ngamaphesenti ama-2 ngaphezulu kuleli sonto uma kuqhathaniswa neminyaka edlule nokuthi kufanele "silindele ukuthi umsebenzi womkhuhlane uhlale uphakeme amasonto ambalwa."O, kuhle.

Izindaba ezimnandi: Kusukela kuleli sonto, yizifundazwe ezingama-26 kuphela ezihlangabezana nakho phezulu umsebenzi womkhuhlane, owehlile kusukela ku-30 ​​ngesonto eledlule. Ngakho-ke ngenkathi le sizini ingahlala isikhathi eside kunokujwayelekile, kubonakala ngathi sikusimo sokwehla.

Kunoma ikuphi, umkhuhlane kungenzeka unamathele amasonto ambalwa, ngakho-ke into engcono kakhulu ongayenza (uma ungakabi nayo) ukuthola umuthi wokugoma. Ungahle ucabange ukuthi sekwephuze kakhulu, kepha ngezinhlobo ezahlukahlukene zomkhuhlane ezihamba kulo nyaka, kungcono ukufika sekwephuzile kunokuzisola. (Ingabe bewazi ukuthi amaphesenti angama-41 abantu baseMelika awazange ahlele ukuthola umkhuhlane, naphezu kwenkathi yomkhuhlane obulalayo ngonyaka odlule?)

Kakade ubenomkhuhlane? Uxolo, kepha awukasuki engcupheni. Ukholwa noma ungakholwa, ungathola umkhuhlane kabili ngesizini eyodwa. Sekuvele kunokunye phakathi kokushona okuhlobene nomkhuhlane phakathi kwama-25,000 no-41,500 kanye nezibhedlela eziningi ezingama-400,000 kule sizini, ngakho akuyona into okufanele ithathwe kalula. (Nazi ezinye izindlela ezine ongazivikela ngazo kumkhuhlane kulo nyaka.)
