'Mpox In Wayne County: Health Department Confirms First Case Since 2022' - Fox 2 Detroit
The Wayne County Health Department (WCPH) says it has its first case of mpox since the global outbreak two years ago.
韦恩县卫生部(WCPH)表示,自全球爆发两年以来,该部门首次报告了mpox案例。
In a release from the WCPH, a case of MPOX was confirmed in a resident in the county – but says there is a low risk to the public due to the nature of how MPOX is spread.
根据WCPH发布的消息,该县的一位居民确诊了MPOX,并表示由于MPOX传播的方式,对公众的风险很低。
The WCPH is awaiting the specific virus type and said that there have been no new cases of the new strain of mpox (Clade 1 type) that are linked to an outbreak in sub-Saharan Africa. The World Health Organization declared a global health emergency due to the nature of the outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo where there have been over 14,000 cases and 524 deaths.
WCPH正在等待病毒的具体类型,并表示尚无与撒哈拉以南非洲爆发的新型mpox(Clade 1型)有关的新病例。世界卫生组织根据刚果民主共和国的爆发性质宣布全球卫生紧急状态,那里已经有超过14,000例病例和524例死亡。
Mpox does not spread through the air between people, though an individual with mpox is contagious for a total of 2-4 weeks.
mpox不会通过人与人之间的空气传播,尽管患有mpox的个体会在总共2-4周内具有传染性。
Symptoms include flu-like symptoms including fevers, muscle aches, swollen lymph nodes, fatigue, and respiratory symptoms. There's also a rash that resembles pimples or blisters and symptoms start within 1 days after exposure.
症状包括类似流感的症状,如发烧,肌肉疼痛,淋巴结肿大,疲劳和呼吸道症状。还会出现类似粉刺或水疱的皮疹,并且症状在接触后的1天内开始出现。
The health department is recommending vaccines for those at risk of exposure. Taken four weeks apart, two doses are needed for full protection.
卫生部建议那些有接触风险的人接种疫苗。两剂疫苗需要间隔四周以获得全面的保护。
