Danger of new epidemic! Mysterious disease spreading among children in China, preparations to close schools?
After seeing the havoc of Corona, now people have started fearing even the name of the epidemic. At such a time, the threat of a new epidemic has started troubling us again. Like Covid-19, the spread of this disease is also starting from China. Patients of this mysterious disease have been seen in many hospitals of China, whose number is increasing rapidly. After reports on this, the concern of the World Health Organization (WHO) has also increased. This disease is especially seen in school children.
Many countries of the world including China have still not fully recovered from Corona. In such a situation, now people have started remembering the time when Corona was in the initial stages. Although this epidemic is being said to be similar to pneumonia, but many of its symptoms are different from pneumonia. Swelling is being seen in the lungs of children affected by it. At the same time, along with high fever, they are also facing problems like cough, flu and difficulty in breathing.
In China, most of the impact is visible on children only
Most of the patients associated with mysterious pneumonia are being seen in hospitals in north-eastern China, Beijing and Liaoning. The situation is so bad that there is a lot of pressure on resources. The outbreak of the disease is so severe that the government has made preparations to close schools here. ProMed Alert, an open-access monitoring system, has issued a worldwide warning about the disease. Actually, this platform keeps an eye on diseases occurring in humans and animals all over the world. Warning about the mysterious pneumonia that has emerged in China, this organization has said that the outbreak of this disease is being seen especially in children.
This agency itself had issued Covid alert
proMED Alert itself issued an early warning in late December 2019 about a new virus, which was later identified as SARS-CoV-2. Due to the alert of the organization, high-ranking officers and medical professionals of the World Health Organization as well as a large group of scientists were alerted. ProMed Alert, the organization that issued the alert, said that they have issued an alert about an unknown disease, which especially affects the respiratory function. However, the agency has also said that it is not clear when this outbreak started. The organization also said that so many children cannot be affected together so quickly. The report also did not say that any adult had been affected by this child.
WHO had to issue a statement, said this
The World Health Organization (WHO) has requested China to provide detailed information after shocking reports of this disease surfaced. WHO said in the press conference that China had told the local media about this disease on 13 November 2023. The health agency has asked China to keep a close watch on the cases related to this disease. WHO has said that on November 21, ProMed reported about this disease spreading in North China.
