I-Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) ibike ngoJulayi 23 ukuba inani le-1,506 lamatyala atyholwa nge-diphtheria liye labikwa kwiindawo ze-59 zoorhulumente basekhaya kwiindawo ze-11 kulo lonke ilizwe.
I-Kano (i-1,055 iimeko), i-Yobe (232), i-Kaduna (85), i-Katsina (58) kunye ne-Bauchi (47) ithi, kunye ne-FCT (amatyala e-18), i-akhawunti ye-99.3% yazo zonke iimeko ezikrokrelwayo.
Phakathi kwamatyala arhanelwayo, i-579, okanye i-38.5%, iqinisekisiwe.Kuwo onke amatyala aqinisekisiweyo, kwaxelwa ukufa kwe-39 (izinga lokufa kwabantu: 6.7%).
Ukususela ngoMeyi 2022 ukuya kuJulayi 2023, amaZiko eSizwe oLawulo lweZifo kunye noThintelo abike ngaphezu kwe-4,000 ekrokrelwayo kwaye i-1,534 iqinisekisile iimeko ze-diphtheria.
Kwi-1,534 yamatyala aqinisekisiweyo, i-1,257 (81.9%) ayizange igonywe ngokupheleleyo kwi-diphtheria.
IDiphtheria lusulelo olumandundu olubangelwa luhlobo oluvelisa ityhefu lweCorynebacterium diphtheriae.Le tyhefu inokugula kakhulu abantu.Iibhaktheriya zeDiphtheria zisasazeka ukusuka komnye umntu ukuya komnye ngamathontsi okuphefumla njengokukhohlela okanye ukuthimla.Abantu banokugula zizilonda ezivulekileyo okanye izilonda kubantu abanediphtheria.
Xa ibhaktheriya ingena kwinkqubo yokuphefumla, inokubangela umqala obuhlungu, umkhuhlane omncinci, kunye namadlala adumbileyo entanyeni.Iityhefu eziveliswa zezi bhaktheriya zinokubulala izicubu eziphilileyo kwinkqubo yokuphefumla, nto leyo eyenza kube nzima ukuphefumla nokuginya.Ukuba le tyhefu ingena egazini, isenokubangela iingxaki zentliziyo, imithambo-luvo nezintso.Usulelo lolusu olubangelwa yi-B. diphtheriae ludla ngokuba zizilonda ezingaphezulu (izilonda) kwaye azibangeli sigulo sibi.
Idiphtheria yokuphefumla inokubangela ukufa kwabanye abantu.Kwanangonyango, malunga nomntu omnye kwabali-10 onediphtheria yokuphefumla uyafa.Ngaphandle konyango, ukuya kutsho kwisiqingatha sezigulane zinokubhubha sesi sifo.
Ukuba awuzange ugonyelwe i-diphtheria okanye awugonyelwanga ngokupheleleyo idiphtheria kwaye usenokuba uye wachanabeka kwi-diphtheria, kubalulekile ukuqalisa unyango ngee-antitoxins kunye ne-antibiotics ngokukhawuleza.
