中新网约翰内斯堡10月8日电 中国驻肯尼亚大使馆7日晚发布公告,提醒在肯中国公民关注肯尼亚埃博拉输入性疫情并做好个人健康防护。

公告称,10月6日,肯尼亚卫生部通报一例输入性本迪布焦型埃博拉病毒死亡病例。该患者在刚果(金)感染埃博拉病毒,后经陆路抵乌干达坎帕拉,并于10月3日搭乘航班抵达内罗毕乔莫·肯雅塔国际机场,送至内罗毕医院后于当地时间10月5日晚宣布死亡,目前已识别的密接者均处于严密监测下,总体形势可控。

埃博拉是一种罕见、重症、高致死率的出血热疾病,对身体健康威胁极大,请在肯及拟赴肯中国公民高度重视、做好防范。埃博拉潜伏期为2至21天,患者可突发发热、疲劳、不适、肌肉疼痛、头痛和喉咙痛等症状,随后出现呕吐、腹泻、腹痛、皮疹以及肾脏和肝功能受损等症状。病程中后期部分患者可出现内出血和外出血,包括呕吐物/粪便带血、鼻/牙龈/阴道出血,也可出现针刺部位渗血。若影响到中枢神经系统,可出现意识混乱、烦躁易怒和攻击性行为等表现。由于疟疾部分症状与埃博拉较为相似,请相关人员遵医嘱避免混淆病情。

请全体在肯同胞持续做好健康管理,避免前往疫区。近期有疫区旅居史、与疑似病例相同乘机史人员务必遵守肯卫生部门指引,完成21天自我健康监测。如出现发热、不适等疑似症状,应第一时间主动向医疗机构(肯尼亚国家公共卫生实验室热线电话+254-719)说明旅居和暴露情况,按指引就诊。日常请避免接触野生动物、不明病患及可疑体液、污染物,坚持勤洗手、注意个人卫生。

请全体在肯同胞关注官方信息,科学防疫、不信谣不传谣。如遇紧急情况或需要领事协助,可随时联系使馆。领保电话:+254-20-2711222;外交部全球领事保护与服务应急热线:+86-10-12308、+86-10-65612308

The prevalence rate of depression in the elderly is as high as 13.3%! "It hurts here and there it hurts" may be because no one knows about something on their mind

Xue Yuanzhi, a physician at the Department of Psychosomatic Medicine at the Songde Campus of Taipei City United Hospital, pointed out that the prevalence rate of depression among the elderly is as high as 13.3%. It is often mistaken for old age and stubbornness in the form of physical discomfort. In fact, it is related to the imbalance of neurotransmitters.

1 in 3 adults has high blood pressure, beware of this “silent killer”

On the occasion of National Hypertension Day, the latest epidemiological survey shows that the prevalence of hypertension in adults aged 18 and above in my country reaches 31.6%, and more than half of the patients are unaware of it. Hypertension is trending among younger people. Experts point out that factors such as staying up late, sitting for long periods of time, and eating high-salt and high-fat diets lower the age of onset. They recommend that young people measure their blood pressure regularly. The article emphasizes the importance of early detection and early intervention, especially those with family history who should be monitored regularly starting from the age of 30. It also introduces how grassroots medical institutions can improve the prevention and control of hypertension through standardized management standards, and reminds people to pay attention to blood pressure fluctuations in autumn and winter and the fact that grapefruit may affect the metabolism of antihypertensive drugs.

Canada will not allow assisted suicide for those with only mental illness

Canada's justice minister announced the country will not permit medically assisted suicide for individuals whose sole condition is mental illness, reversing a planned expansion of assisted dying laws. Assisted dying was legalized in 2016 for end-of-life cases and expanded in 2021 to include serious, incurable illnesses regardless of prognosis. The original 2024 deadline for broader access was delayed to 2027 to allow the mental health system to prepare.

In response to the drug policy controversy, psychosomatic physician Hu Xuejin pointed out that methadone maintenance therapy helps heroin addicts reduce the risk of infectious diseases and reintegrate into society through daily oral replacement medicine.
