A new type of pneumonia with unknown cause that mainly affects children has once again raised questions China health issues of international concern.
this World Health Organization The World Health Organization (WHO) has expressed concern over the situation, while formally requesting authorities in the Asian country to provide all available information on recent cases of the respiratory illness, whose main symptoms and characteristics are already known.
The Program for Surveillance of Emerging Diseases (ProMED) was responsible for issuing the first international alert on this new outbreak of pneumonia in children, which was most severe in the northeast of the country and in large urban centres. In its advisory, it has identified a range of common but “unusual” symptoms among the cases it has identified.
Thus, the report talks about a wave of childhood pneumonia that led to the “collapse of Beijing Children’s Hospital” and another center in northwestern Liaoning due to rapid spread in schools. In terms of the most common symptoms doctors encounter in Asian countries, what’s particularly striking is their lack of coughing.
“Furthermore, the radiographic abnormalities were described as pulmonary nodules rather than the patchy infiltrates more commonly seen in mycoplasmal pneumonia,” the surveillance project added. However, the project also noted that microorganisms “don’t read this book,” and may be presented in a less typical manner.
It is spread from person to person through “close contact with infected respiratory droplets”, has an incubation period of 2 to 3 weeks, and is diagnosed using three tests: culture, serology and nucleic acid amplification (PCR is preferred).
