This city is in the season of high incidence of respiratory infectious diseases. There are some cases of recurrent fever in outpatient clinics of hospitals. On December 6, Li Dong, the chief physician of the General Infection Department of You'an Hospital, suggested that at present, multiple pathogens are common. Even if there is a history of respiratory diseases in a short period of time, we should also take precautions and not relax our vigilance.
Li Dong once introduced that there may be two reasons for repeated fever. One is that the patients return to work and school when their symptoms are alleviated but not yet recovered. Environmental changes, temperature differences, excessive exercise and other stimulative effects lead to decreased immunity and repeated or aggravated illness. The other is mixed infection and cross infection.
"Influenza virus, mycoplasma pneumoniae, syncytial virus, neocoronavirus and other pathogens will make the human body have corresponding immune capacity after infection and recovery, which can generally prevent the human body from re infecting the same pathogen within two to three months." He explained that the epidemic of respiratory infectious diseases in 2023 is characterized by the common prevalence of multiple pathogens in addition to the early peak period. This not only creates an environment for mixed infection, but also challenges diagnosis and treatment to a certain extent. "Doctors' diagnosis and treatment are more dependent on inspection results."
Therefore, patients who have been infected with respiratory infectious diseases should not relax their vigilance even if they recover. Li Dong once suggested that hand hygiene should be done well; Wear masks scientifically in public places and crowded places; Go to work and school without illness to prevent repeated illness, cross infection and vicious circle; Timely vaccinate against influenza and other related vaccines. "Especially children in kindergartens and schools are likely to have two or three fevers this winter. Parents should observe more and protect with their children."
Interpret doubts
Can children be vaccinated when they are ill
In response to the parents' question of "Can children still be vaccinated when they are ill?", the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention answered the question. In case of a slight cold or cough, the vaccination effect is usually not affected. However, due to individual differences or disease progression, some children may aggravate the original discomfort after vaccination. Therefore, it is advisable to postpone the vaccination until the child's symptoms disappear and the disease recovers. (Sun Leqi)
