I think the state government has acted fast enough to contain the virus.As precautionary measures, isolation wards have been set up in three districts - Ernakulam, Thrissur and Kozhikode. "We are prepared with all precautionary measures, especially because we have trained staff from the last outbreak in 2018," said Ms Shailaja. The wildlife department has been told to catch bats to test for the presence of virus. The central government has also sent a six-member team to Kerala.
Why Nipa has surfaced again is a mind boggling issue. The question what steps we can take to ensure that the virus does not rear its head once again must be rephrased. Viruses can not be destroyed . We can take various steps to contain a particular virus. We can think about abstaining from the circumstance where there is a larger possibility to get the disease.Experts say the source of Nipah may be bats , pigs or such mammals. Nipah virus is transmitted from animals to humans and then spreads through people to people contact. Research is needed in this area to confirm the real source of the outbreak .
Yes. We have learnt from the lessons last year.The government and the health staff are doing all what they can do and they are working according to a newly devised protocol which has succeeded in containing the Virus.According to the World Health Organisation, 18 Nipah cases were reported in Kerala last year; 17 of them died. The first death was reported on May 19, 2018. Since then, more than 2,600 contacts were identified and followed up with during the outbreak.This year there is no fatality till this day.Only one person is affected but he is recovering soon according to the recent medical reports.Four more people, including two nurses, are down with fever and two of them had come in contact with the 23-year-old man. 311 people, among them 22 students, are under surveillance.It has been confirmed officially that none of these people have been affected by Nipah. Still we must be alert in handling the situation though there is no need to panic.
Care must be taken to keep a vigil in our food habits until the source of the outbreak is confirmed. Awareness programmes must be designed so as to keep our school children out of unhygienic eating habits.
What do you think about the various measures to be taken to contain the outbreak of Nipah in India. ?
