The Dhaka Times Desk The citizens of China are repeatedly affected by severe viruses. This time, there have been reports of a new virus attack called bunya in China. 7 people have died, 60 people have been infected.
The whole world is struggling to deal with the corona virus that spread from Wuhan, China. Already more than 7 lakh people have died all over the world. Affected over 1 crore 80 lakhs in the world. In the meantime, the new virus has started to emerge again in China.
Experts have confirmed that the virus is spread by the bite of a special type of blood-sucking insect. It is officially confirmed that 7 people have already died of this new virus in China. The number of infected has exceeded 60.
According to the report of Global Times of China, the presence of new SFTS virus can be identified in the body of 37 people in Jiangsu Province of East China. Common symptoms of this virus include fever, chills, and a decrease in the number of leukocytes. Which are basically collectively called SFTS.
On the other hand, 23 new cases of the virus have also been reported in East China's Anhui province. Whether the new SFTS virus is as lethal as the Covid virus is still under investigation. However, China is not showing any strong attitude towards learning from Covid. Specifically: on the loss of 7 lives.
An infected woman in Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu province, went to the doctor with common symptoms like fever and cold. If the fever does not go down, the doctors do a blood test.
Then after the defense test, it can be seen that the leukocytes have decreased. Platelet count is also much lower than normal. He was kept in the hospital and treated for over a month. After that the woman recovered. Later it is known that the woman is infected with a new virus.
According to the report of Global Times, 7 people have died so far due to the infection of the new virus in Anhui and Jiangsu provinces. Although Chinese virus experts said, SFTS virus is not really a new virus.
The pathogen of this virus was isolated in 2011. It falls under the category of Bunyavirus.
According to the opinion of virologists, this virus is infected in the human body from the bite of a special type of blood-sucking insect. However, the risk of human-to-human transmission is not completely ruled out.
Sheng Zhifang, a doctor at Zhejiang University Hospital in China, warned that there is also a high possibility of spreading from blood or mucus.
Doctors warn that insect bites are the main route of infection. So be careful. But there is no need to panic about this virus infection. They think there is nothing to panic about this bunyavirus right now.
