"Zvirwere zvinotakurwa nezvikwekwe zviri kuwedzera, uye kudzivirira kunofanira kunge kuri mupfungwa dzemunhu wese, kunyanya munguva yechirimo nezhizha, uye kutanga kwekudonha apo zvikwekwe zvinonyanya kushanda," Rebecca Eisen, Ph.D., nyanzvi yekuongorora nezvezvinhu zvipenyu kuUS Centers. yeChirwere Kudzora uye Kudzivirira (CDC), akaudza Chicago Tribune.

Vanoda kusvika makumi mana ezviuru vanhu vakaiwana mu2015, sekureva kweCDC, spike ye320 muzana, uye mamwe akawanda kesi akafanotaurwa. Asi kunyangwe Lyme angave ari anonyanya kutaurwa nezvirwere zvinotakurwa nezvikwekwe, nekuda kwevakakurumbira vakaita saGigi Hadid, Avril Lavigne, naKelly Osbourne vachitaura pamusoro pezviitiko zvavo, hazvisi izvo chaizvo chete chirwere chaunowana kubva pakurumwa nechikwekwe.

CDC inonyora pamusoro pezvirwere gumi neshanu zvinozivikanwa zvinotapuriranwa nekurumwa nekwekwe uye nyaya dzinofukidza zvese zveU.S., kusanganisira Rocky Mountain spotted fever uye STARI. Gore rakapera chirwere chitsva chinonzi babesosis chakaita misoro yenhau. Kune kunyange chirwere chekurumwa nekwekwe chinogona kukuita kuti urege nyama (zvakanyanya!).

Zvino, vanhu vari kunetsekana nezvekuwedzera kwechirwere chinotyisa chinotakurwa nechikwekwe chinonzi Powassan. Powassan chirwere chehutachiona chinoonekwa nefivha, kutemwa nemusoro, kurutsa, kushaya simba, kuvhiringidzika, kubatwa, uye kurasikirwa nendangariro. Kunyange iri yakawanda zvisingaenzaniswi pane zvimwe zvirwere zvinotakurwa nezvikwekwe, zvakanyanyisa. Varwere vanowanzoda kugara muchipatara uye vanogona kuva nematambudziko erefu-kwenguva neurologic-uye zvakanyanya, zvinogona kuuraya.

Asi usati wavhunduka uye kubvisa kukwira kwako kwese, kukombwa, uye kumhanya kwekunze nemuminda yemaruva, zvakakosha kuti uzive kuti zvikwekwe zviri nyore kuzvidzivirira, anodaro Christina Liscynesky, MD, nyanzvi yezvirwere zvinotapukira kuOhio State University Wexner Medical Center. Semuenzaniso, pfeka mbatya dzinokukomberedza dzinovhara ganda rako rese, uye sarudza mbatya dzvuku-tambo dzinokubatsira kuona vanotsoropodza nekukurumidza. Asi zvichida nhau dzakanakisisa ndedzekuti zvikwekwe zvinowanzokambaira pamuviri wako kwemaawa anosvika makumi maviri nemana asati agara pasi kuti akurumidze (ndidzo nhau dzakanaka here?!) saka kudzivirira kwako kwakanakisisa i "tick check" yakanaka mushure mokunge uri kunze. Tarisa muviri wako wese, kusanganisira nzvimbo yezvikwekwe sepamusoro wako, chiuno chako, uye pakati pezvigunwe zvako. (Heano nzira nhanhatu dzekuzvidzivirira kubva kune vanotsoropodza.)

"Ona muviri wako kuti uone zvikwekwe zuva rega rega paunenge uchidzika musasa kana kufamba-famba kana kuti uchigara munzvimbo inorema uye uchishandisa mushonga wakanaka wekudzinga zvipembenene," Dr. Liscynesky anopa zano, achiwedzera kuti zvakakosha kuisa mushonga wezvipembenene kana mafuta. mushure sunscreen yako. (Iwe haungakanganwe sunscreen, handiti?)

Tsvaga imwe? Ingozvikwenya wozvipwanya kana zvisina kubatana, kana kushandisa zvigunwe kuti ubvise ipapo kubva paganda rako kana rakanamatira, uchive nechokwadi chekudzima ese muromo, Dr. Liscynesky anodaro. (Zvakakura, isu tinoziva.) "Geza nzvimbo yekuruma chikwekwe nesipo nemvura uye vhara nebhandeji, hapana mafuta ekurwisa mabhakitiriya anodikanwa," anodaro. Kana iwe ukabvisa chikwekwe nekukurumidza, mikana yekuwana chero chirwere kubva mairi yakaderera. Kana iwe usina chokwadi kuti yagara kwenguva yakareba sei muganda rako, kana kana iwe ukatanga kuona zviratidzo kunge fivhiri kana kuputika, fonera doc yako nekukasira.
