Japanese Encephalitis Case Investigation
Sitio Camao, Brgy. Marcelo, Calatrava

Ang Japanese Encephalitis (JE) usa ka klase sa impeksyon nga nagagikan sa Culex mosquitoes — usa ka matang sa lamok nga kasagarang nagapuyo sa mga lugar nga hugaw, ilabina duol sa mga baboyan o mga lugar nga daghan ug hugaw sa itik ug pato. Kung kini nga lamok makapaak ug tawo nga nagdala na sa JE virus, posible nga makasinati ang biktima og taas nga hilanat, pagsuka, kasakit ug kakagot sa kalamnan, ug ubang mga sintomas nga mo atake sa nervous system. Sanglit ang JE nag-atake sa utok ug ugat, kini makapahinabo og grabeng komplikasyon sama sa paralisis sa lawas.

Masubo pamalandungon nga kini ang unang natala nga kaso sa atong lungsod. Nagpahinumdom kini kanato nga ang hugot nga pagpaninlo sa palibot, ilabina sa mga hugaw gikan sa mga sapat sama sa baboy ug pato, importante kaayo aron malikayan ang mga sakit nga mahimong mugna tungod sa dili limpyo nga palibot.

Sa maong kaso, malipay kita nga nakaluwas ang bata. Apan, tungod sa grabeng kadaot nga nahimo sa virus, naparalisa na siya ug kini irreversible na — dili na mapanumbalik sa normal ang ubang function sa iyang lawas.

Ang maong imbestigasyon gihimo uban ang pagdumala ug kooperasyon sa Provincial Health Office, Central Health Department – NIR, Lee Ma Ku (mam jam) ug Municipal Health Office nga gipangulohan ni Dr. Mark Allan L. Rezaga, kauban si Christopher Lorezo, Jessica Martinez Agravante, midwife sa maong Brgy. ug ang uban team sa MHO.
