KANADA: Cacar monyet melanda Amerika Utara dan Eropah sejak Mei lalu.

Virus yang jarang ditemui itu berpotensi memberi kesan serius, sekaligus mencetuskan kebimbangan terhadap penularan wabak endemic di beberapa bahagian Afrika.

Kanada melaporkan pihak berkuasanya kini sedang menyiasat beberapa kes yang disyaki cacar monyet.

Sementara itu Sepanyol dan Portugal sebelum ini mengesan lebih 40 kes disyaki atau disahkan cacar monyet.

Manakala Britain mengesahkan sembilan kes cacar monyet dikesan sejak 6 Mei dan Amerika Syarikat mengesahkan kes pertamanya kelmarin membabitkan seorang lelaki yang pulang dari Kanada.


Penyakit cacar monyet membawa maut, namun hanya dalam beberapa kes terpencil.

Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) Selasa lalu berkata, ia telah menyelaras bersama pegawai kesihatan Britain dan Eropah bagi wabak terbaharu itu.

Tuan betul
Vaksin nya dah lama ada

Vaccination
Vaccination against smallpox was demonstrated through several observational studies to be about 85% effective in preventing monkeypox. Thus, prior smallpox vaccination may result in milder illness. Evidence of prior vaccination against smallpox can usually be found as a scar on the upper arm. At the present time, the original (first-generation) smallpox vaccines are no longer available to the general public. Some laboratory personnel or health workers may have received a more recent smallpox vaccine to protect them in the event of exposure to orthopoxviruses in the workplace. A still newer vaccine based on a modified attenuated vaccinia virus (Ankara strain) was approved for the prevention of monkeypox in 2019. This is a two-dose vaccine for which availability remains limited. Smallpox and monkeypox vaccines are developed in formulations based on the vaccinia virus due to cross-protection afforded for the immune response to orthopoxviruses.
