While little is known about the mysterious #Oropouche virus in Latin America, a number of deaths have been reported along with impacts on unborn babies. A #CharitéBerlin study has discovered that the pathogen is more widespread than previously thought.

Über das #Oropouche-Virus in #Lateinamerika ist bisher wenig bekannt, es gibt aber Hinweise auf einzelne Todesfälle & mögliche Folgen für ungeborene Kinder. Eine #CharitéBerlin-Studie zeigt jetzt: Der Erreger ist in der Region weiter verbreitet als gedacht.

This is the new Covid welcoming Trump , the problem now is that we might have RFK Jr. in charge of HHS, Trump failed with Covid and he will fail here ;

“A little-known virus is getting a lot of attention this year. It's called Oropouche, and it's been making headlines because of a notable increase in diagnoses.

So far in 2024 there have been over 10,000 cases, mainly in South America and the Caribbean. The vast majority are in Brazil. By contrast, the total Oropouche count in Brazil recorded between 2015 and 2022 was 261. Of the 21 recorded cases in the United States, all involved an individual who had traveled to Cuba and contracted the virus there.”

I have to think that if biting midges in Cuba are infected with #Oropouche and passing it along to people, there's also some here in florida, or will be soon.

Every time I've spent on sanibel island recently, I get destroyed by the biting midges. They increased in population after hurricane Ian because the saltwater surge from the hurricane turned the fresh water into brackish and gave the noseeums more places to breed.

#Oropouche fever, a potentially fatal #zoonotic disease, is transmitted by tiny flies called #midges and #mosquitoes.. There is currently no vaccine for the virus, which is part of the same family of diseases as #Zika and #dengue fever.”

Febre #oropouche

Minha sogra veio me perguntar assustada por causa do jeito que tão falando na TV.

Tá tudo bem, gente.

Resumindo o que vi em artigos:
- É uma doença antiga e já teve mais de 30 surtos dela desde os anos 60
- É transmitida por #mosquito e os sintomas parecem com os da #dengue
- Teve duas mortes, mas isso é muito incomum. O normal é a gente ter que ficar em repouso amenizando os sintomas
- Parecia restrita ao norte, mas hoje temos uma cobertura maior de testes e aparecem casos em outras regiões

Recomendações:
- Se passar por áreas com mosquito ou com surto usar repelente e roupas compridas
- Se estiver com sintomas também usar repelente pra não passar adiante
- consulte uma pessoa médica pra receitar os remédios pros sintomas

revistapesquisa.fapesp.br Variante agressiva do vírus Oropouche circula no paísUma variante do vírus Oropouche (Orov), causador da febre do Oropouche, identificada em janeiro na região Norte, pode ser a responsável pela atual propagação da doença no país.
