I-Enterovirus 71, ebizwa ngokuba yi-EV71, yenye yezona ntsholongwane ziphambili ezibangela isifo sezandla, iinyawo kunye nomlomo. Esi sifo sisifo esixhaphakileyo nesixhaphakileyo, esibonakala kakhulu kwiintsana kunye nabantwana abancinci, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha nakubantu abadala. Sinokwenzeka unyaka wonke, kodwa sixhaphake kakhulu ukusuka ku-Epreli ukuya kuSeptemba, apho uMeyi ukuya kuJulayi lixesha eliphezulu. Emva kokosulelwa yi-EV71, uninzi lwezigulane luneempawu ezincinci, ezinje ngomkhuhlane kunye nokurhawuzelelwa okanye i-herpes ezandleni, ezinyaweni, emlonyeni nakwezinye iindawo zomzimba. Inani elincinci lezigulane linokuba neempawu ezinzima ezifana ne-aseptic meningitis, i-encephalitis, i-acute flaccid paralysis, i-neurogenic pulmonary edema, kunye ne-myocarditis. Kwezinye iimeko ezinzima, imeko ikhula ngokukhawuleza kwaye inokukhokelela ekufeni.

Okwangoku akukho mayeza athile okulwa ne-enterovirus, kodwa kukho ugonyo oluchasene ne-enterovirus EV71. Ukugonywa kunokuthintela ngempumelelo ukusasazeka kwesifo sezandla, iinyawo nomlomo, kunciphise iimpawu zabantwana, kwaye kuthomalalise iingxaki zabazali. Nangona kunjalo, ukufunyaniswa kwangethuba kunye nonyango kusesezona ndlela zilungileyo zokuthintela nokulawula!

Ii-antibodies ze-IgM zezona antibodies zokuqala ukuvela emva kokosulelwa okokuqala yi-EV71, kwaye zibaluleke kakhulu ekuqinisekiseni ukuba kukho usulelo lwakutshanje na. Ikhithi yokufumanisa ii-antibody ze-enterovirus 71 IgM ze-Weizheng (indlela yegolide ye-colloidal) ivunyiwe ukuba ithengiswe eMalaysia. Iya kunceda amaziko ezonyango asekuhlaleni ukuba abone kwaye axilonge usulelo lwe-EV71 ngokukhawuleza, ukuze athathe unyango olufanelekileyo kunye nokuthintela kunye nokulawula amanyathelo okuthintela ukuba imeko ibe mandundu.
