[Public Health] Rat-infected Hantavirus emergency drills are in progress
Baiyun Airport Public Management 2022-03-11 16:50
Editor’s note
Epidemic hemorrhagic fever, also known as hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, referred to as “hemorrhagic fever”, is caused by Hanta virus (HV), and rats are the main source of infection, and it is a natural disease that spreads through various ways such as the respiratory tract and digestive tract. Foci of disease. Epidemic hemorrhagic fever is a Class B infectious disease notifiable in my country.
It’s time to practice
In order to do a good job in emergency response to public health incidents in public areas and further improve the emergency response capability of the disinfection emergency team, on the afternoon of March 10, the Ministry of Environmental Management joined hands with the disinfection team of Huilimin Pest Control Company to carry out a rodent-infected Tanzania virus emergency drill.
In this exercise, the Baiyun Airport Sewage Plant was used as the killing place for rodent-infected Hantavirus, and it was divided into two areas: indoor and outdoor. The monitoring results captured 2 rodents, the species were shrew and Rattus norvegicus, and the hantavirus test was positive. It is now necessary to urgently kill the Baiyun Airport Sewage Plant, and put rodent drugs to carry out rodent control and rodent control measures. Hemorrhagic fever prevention and control work related requirements for rodent control.
It’s time to practice
After receiving the task, the Huilimin sterilization team dispatched the epidemic prevention and sterilization team to the scene for disposal. After arriving, they learned about the general situation of the site in detail with the person in charge of the sterilization site, determined the scope and area of sterilization, and used a portable constant sprayer. With the ultra-low volume sprayer, the stairwell, office aisle, isolation observation point, toilet and activity area where people are relatively concentrated have been eliminated.
After the drill, the drill team summarized and gave feedback on the problems found, put forward rectification opinions, and further standardized the operation process of on-site plague elimination in public areas during the normalized epidemic prevention and control period.
It’s time to practice
Through this drill, the awareness of the prevention and control of rodent-infested hantavirus has been further improved, and the daily operation of rodent control has been strengthened. While testing the practicability and operability of emergency response plans, it has also improved the prevention and control of plague among post personnel. control ability.
Hantavirus Prevention Encyclopedia
Hantavirus does not spread from person to person! In the transmission of hantavirus, mice carrying the virus are the main source of infection, and the virus is mainly transmitted through the following ways:
One is respiratory transmission. The excrement of rodents carrying the virus forms aerosols that scatter in the air and infect humans through the respiratory tract.
The second is gastrointestinal transmission. Humans ate food contaminated with virus-carrying excrement from rodents and became infected through the oral cavity or human gastrointestinal mucosa.
The third is contact transmission. Infection after being bitten by a rat or a broken wound that comes into contact with virus-laden rat excrement and blood.
The fourth is vertical transmission. Pregnant women infected with hemorrhagic fever virus infect the fetus through the placenta.
The fifth is to spread through relevant media. The prevention of hemorrhagic fever mainly adopts comprehensive control measures of “environmental management, rodent control, vaccination, and personal protection”.
