Incazelo enemininingwane
I-Chikungunya igciwane legciwane elingavamile elidluliselwa ngokulunywa umiyane osulelekile we-Aedes aegypti.Ibonakala ngokuqubuka, imfiva, nobuhlungu obukhulu bamalunga (arthralgias) obuvamise ukuthatha izinsuku ezintathu kuya kweziyisikhombisa.Leli gama lisuselwa egameni lesiMakonde elisho “lokho okugobayo” kubhekiselwa ekumeni okugobile okuba khona ngenxa yezimpawu zesifo samathambo.Kwenzeka ngesikhathi sezimvula ezindaweni ezishisayo emhlabeni, ikakhulukazi e-Afrika, eNingizimu-Mpumalanga ye-Asia, eningizimu yeNdiya nasePakistan.Izimpawu zivame ukubonakala ngendlela engaqondakali ngokomtholampilo lezo ezibonwa kumkhuhlane wodenga.Ngempela, ukutheleleka okukabili kodenga ne-chikungunya kuye kwabikwa eNdiya.Ngokungafani nodenga, ukubonakaliswa ukopha akuvamile futhi ngokuvamile lesi sifo siwumkhuhlane ozikhawulelayo.Ngakho-ke kubaluleke kakhulu ukwehlukanisa ngokomtholampilo udenga ekuthelelekeni nge-CHIK.I-CHIK ixilongwa ngokusekelwe ekuhlaziyweni kwe-serological kanye nokuhlukaniswa kwegciwane kumagundane noma isiko lezicubu.I-IgM immunoassay iyindlela yokuhlola elebhu esebenza kakhulu.I-Chikungunya IgG/IgM Rapid Test isebenzisa ama-antigen aphindayo atholakala kuphrotheni yesakhiwo sayo, ithola i-IgG/IgM anti-CHIK ku-serum yesiguli noma ku-plasma phakathi nemizuzu engu-20.Ukuhlolwa kungenziwa izisebenzi ezingaqeqeshiwe noma ezinamakhono amancane, ngaphandle kwemishini yaselabhorethri enzima.
