Afrika Kusini imeripoti kuwa na kisa cha kwanza cha Virusi vya Monkeypox, ikiungana na nchi nyingine 40 ambazo zimeripoti kuwa na virusi hivyo.

"Mgonjwa ana umri wa miaka 30, ni mwanaume kutoka Jiji la Johannesburg, hana historia ya kusafiri. Mchakato wa kumfuatilia unaendelea,” anasema Waziri wa Afya, Joe Phaahla

Dalili za ugonjwa huo ni homa kali, kutapika, malengelenge kama tetekuwanga.

South Africa records first case of monkeypox

South Africa on Thursday reported its first case of monkeypox, joining some 40 other countries that have identified patients with the disease.

"The patient is a 30-year-old male from Johannesburg who has no travel history, meaning that this cannot be attributed to having been acquired outside South Africa," Health Minister Joe Phaahla told a news conference.

"Working with the relevant health authorities, a process of contact tracing has begun."

Initial symptoms of monkeypox typically include a high fever, swollen lymph nodes and a blistery, chickenpox-like rash.

The disease is usually mild and patients normally recover after two or three weeks.

The World Health Organization said last week that Europe remained the epicentre of the global monkeypox outbreak.

The UN health body is due to hold an emergency meeting on Thursday to determine whether to classify the global monkeypox outbreak as a public health emergency of international concern.

Mwaka jana niliwahi kutadhalisha kuhusu highly questionable source ya virus hivi ambavyo ni highly contagious - Mara nyingi matukio haya uhibukia either South Afrika, Nigeria, Merikani,Uingereza na mara nyingine nchi jirani - ukichunguza kwa umakini utabaini kwamba Mataifa hayo kuna mahabara zinazo kuwa funded na Taifa linalo husika sana na masuala ya tafiti za virusi hatarishi pamoja na kemikali kwa ajili ya kuzitumia kwenye silaha za kuangamiza halahiki ya binadamu wakati wa VITA na nyingine zitatumika kutengeneza chanjo za kimanghamushi zenye lengo la kusababisha wasichana/wanawake wawe wagumba - mbinu zote hizo zina lenga kupunguza idadi ya wanadamu hasa kwenye Third World Nations,chanjo nyingine ni ya kusababisha magonjwa mbali mbali.
