Uvavanyo lwaseLab lwenziwa emva kokuba abantu abasibhozo kulo mmandla babeneempawu zesifo “sinobugwenxa kakhulu”, kubandakanya umkhuhlane, ukuhlanza, ukopha, kunye nokusilela kwezintso.
Abahlanu kwabasibhozo amatyala aqinisekisiweyo babhubhile, kuquka unompilo, kwaye abathathu abaseleyo bayanyangwa. Le arhente iphinde yachonga abafowunelwa abali-161 kwabo bosulelekileyo, abajongwe ngoku.
“Iinzame zabasemagunyeni kwezempilo eTanzania ukufumanisa unobangela wesi sifo a isibonakaliso esicacileyo sokuzimisela ukuphendula ngokufanelekileyo kuqhambuko. Sisebenzisana norhulumente ukunyusa ngokukhawuleza amanyathelo olawulo ukunqanda ukusasazeka kwale ntsholongwane kwaye kuphelise ukuqhambuka ngokukhawuleza,” utshilo uGqr Matshidiso Moeti, uMbutho wezeMpilo weHlabathi.WHO) UMlawuli woMmandla weAfrika.
Ngelixa eli lixesha lokuqala iTanzania irekhoda ityala laseMarburg, ilizwe linamava okuphendula kwezinye iingxaki ezibandakanya Covid-19, ikholera, nedengue kwiminyaka emithathu edluleyo. NgoSeptemba ka-2022, i-arhente yezempilo ye-UN yenza uvavanyo lomngcipheko olubonisa ukuba ilizwe liphezulu kakhulu kumngcipheko omkhulu wokuqhambuka kwezifo ezosulelayo.
“Izifundo ezifundiweyo, kunye nenkqubela phambili eyenziweyo ngexesha lokuqhambuka kwamva nje kufuneka limise ilizwe endaweni elungileyo njengoko ijongene nalo mngeni wakutsha nje,” utshilo uGqr Moeti. "Siza kuqhubeka nokusebenzisana ngokusondeleyo nabasemagunyeni kwezempilo ukusindisa ubomi."
Intsholongwane kaMarburg ihlala ibangela umkhuhlane owophayo, kunye nomlinganiselo wokufa okuphezulu ukuya kuthi ga kwi-88 pesenti.
Inxalenye yefayile ye- usapho olunye njengentsholongwane ebangelayo Ebola. Iimpawu ezayanyaniswa nentsholongwane kaMarburg ziqala ngequbuliso, ngomkhuhlane ophezulu, intloko ebuhlungu, kunye nokungalungi okumandla, yatsho iWHO.
Intsholongwane idla ngokudluliselwa ebantwini ukusuka kumalulwane eziqhamo kwaye isasazeka ngokudibana ngqo nolwelo lomzimba lwabantu abosulelekileyo, umphezulu, kunye nezixhobo.
Ngelixa zikho akukho zitofu okanye unyango lwe-antiviral oluvunyiweyo ukunyanga intsholongwane, ukhathalelo oluxhasayo, ukubuyisela amanzi emzimbeni, kunye nonyango lweempawu ezithile kwandisa amathuba okuphila.
