Ancaman penyakit anjing gila di Sarawak
perlu ditangani segera
Penyakit anjing gila atau Rabies adalah
penyakit virus yang menyebabkan keradangan otak pada manusia dan mamalia lain. Tanda
awal mungkin termasuk demam dan kesemutan di bahagian yang terdedah.
Virus rabies didapati dalam tisu saraf
mamalia yang dijangkiti. Kerana virus ini berfungsi perjalanan ke otak, ia mula
dirembeskan dalam air liur haiwan. Manusia dan mamalia mendapat rabies apabila
air liur berjangkit dimasukkan ke dalam badan, biasanya melalui gigitan dari
haiwan yang dijangkiti.
Kes pertama yang melibatkan kematian dua
daripada tiga adik beradik Monica dan Jackson Mazlan berusia enam tahun dan
empat tahun yang dijangkiti virus rabies
atau penyakit anjing gila di Serian semalam. Mereka telah disahkan mati otak
dan ibu bapa mangsa bersetuju untuk menghentikan penggunaan mesin bantuan
hayat.
Kita amat simpati akan nasib yang
menimpa keluarga mangsa yang kehilangan anak kesayangan mereka. PAS menggesa
kerajaan segera menangani virus rabies ini daripada merebak dengan mengambil
tindakan menghapuskan anjing-anjing yang
disyaki dijangkiti virus rabies.
Kami mengesyorkan bahawa kerajaan segera
menangkap anjing-anjing liar yang berkeliaran terutamanya di kawasan yang
disyaki mempunyai virus rabies dan mengelakkan kanak-kanak atau sesiapa saja daripada
mendekati atau melalui kawasan yang terdapat banyak anjing liar.
Mereka yang memelihara anjing juga perlu
diperiksa untuk mengelak daripada terkena gigitan atau serangan virus rabies.
Anjing peliharaan juga perlu diperiksa untuk menjaga keselamatan penduduk
sekitar. Jangan biarkan anjing mereka merayau-rayau keluar tanpa jagaan.
Pihak kerajaan perlu mencegah virus ini
dari merebak dan mengatasi masalah ini dengan segera kerana ianya mengancam
nyawa dan keselamatan penduduk yang terbabit.

The threat of rabies in the state need
to be addressed immediately
Rabies is a viral disease that causes
brain inflammation in humans and other mammals. Early signs may include fever
and tingling in the exposed part.
The rabies virus is found in infected
mammary tissues. Because the virus works to travel to the brain, it begins to
be secreted in saliva. People and mammals get rabies when infectious saliva is
inserted into the body, usually through the bite of an infected animal.
The first case involving the death of
two out of three siblings Monica and Jackson Mazlan aged six and four years who
were infected with rabies in Serian yesterday. They were diagnosed with brain
death and the victim's parents agreed to stop using the life-support machine.
We are very sympathetic to the plight of
the families of those who lost their loved ones. PAS urged the government to
immediately address the rabies virus from spreading by taking action to
eliminate dogs that are suspected of being infected with rabies.
We recommend that the government
immediately catch the stray dogs that roam especially in areas that are
suspected of having a rabies virus and prevent children or anyone from
approaching or through the area that a lot of stray dogs.
Those who keep dogs also need to be
checked to avoid being bitten or rabies virus attack. Pet dogs should also be
checked for the safety of the residents. Do not let their dogs wander out
without care.
The government should prevent this virus
from spreading and addressing this problem immediately as it threatens the
lives and safety of the affected population.
