Measles are increasing. Other preventive diseases can follow
As united The states spread through the country, with the increase in measles and outbreaks in several states.
This year, according to the latest trial carried out by the Disease Control and Prevention Centers, at least 7,599 black cases, as well as coughing, have increased at this time at this time of last year. With a number of parents looking for vaccine exemptions for their children and childhood vaccination, the prevalence of measles, black and other diseases is not only inevitable.
“When the vaccination rate decreases, the first disease you want to see is measles because it is very contagious, but others are also followed,” said Ari Brown, a pediatrician in Texas, the current peculiar prevalence center and a spokesman for the American Academy of Children. “This is a problematic process.”
Last year, there were 285 measles for all 2024. Children are also dying cough. In Louisiana, two babies in the past six months – the state’s first deaths from the disease since 2018 – according to recent statements by the state’s general surgeon, died of the disease – the state’s first deaths from the disease. In January, the South Dakota Ministry of Health announced that the child died of influenza infection and herpes. And in February, a local health department in Washington confirmed that a child under the age of 5 died of a cough – the first time in the state since 2011.
A type of bacterial infection, coughing during coughing or sneezing the person is spread through the respiratory droplets. This causes symptoms of the flu and severe and fast cough. When a person inhales inhaled after the cough, he is known for the sound of “whop” loud and loud. It is especially dangerous for infants because it can interfere with their breathing.
According to the CDC Provisional Supervision Report, there were 35435 cough cases in 2024 in 2024, compared to 7,063 in 2023. Cases reached 2,116 in 2021 due to social distance during the Coveid-19 epidemic in 2021 and were still returning in 2023. However, 2024 exceeded 18,617 in 2019 and 15609 in 2018.
It can lead to serious complications such as pneumonia, seizures, brain injury and death. Babies and young children are particularly at risk. About one -third of infants under six months of age who coughed cough in 2024 needed admission.
“The important of the disease is that it is caused by this particular bacterium, Bordetella Certussis“These toxins produce, and this toxin can be very harmful to our lungs,” says Amy Edwards, an assistant professor at the University of Case Western Medical School.
Vaccination is the best way to protect against infection and severe disease. The diphtheria, tetanus and cervical vaccine or DTAP are given in five doses in infancy and early childhood. The immunity from vaccination and natural infection eventually disappears, and a booster firing is recommended at 11 or 12 years and every 10 years, including for adults. CDC recommends pregnant people to enhance any pregnancy.
