Outbreak Alert: Herpangina Disease Spreading Among Children.｜子どもを中心に感染症「ヘルパンギーナ」流行警報
ニュースの記事（英語／日本語）
"Herpangina" is a type of summer cold that is spreading primarily among young children. Regarding this outbreak, Chief Cabinet Secretary Matsuno monitored the situation and called for infection prevention measures during a press conference. Specifically, he urged individuals with symptoms to actively practice preventive measures such as wearing masks and handwashing.
Furthermore, the number of COVID-19 patients in Tokyo is gradually increasing, prompting the convening of the Tokyo Infectious Disease Control Liaison Council. Dr. Masataka Inokuchi, the former vice chairman of the Tokyo Medical Association, warned that while there is currently no significant burden on the healthcare system, caution is necessary regarding future trends.
Furthermore, Dr. Mitsuo Kaku, the director of the Tokyo Infectious Disease Control Center, has highlighted the potential impact of relaxed infection prevention measures on the spread of "RS virus infection," which is primarily affecting children, and the outbreak of "herpangina," a type of summer cold. He is once again urging the implementation of infection control measures such as wearing masks and handwashing.
「ヘルパンギーナ」は夏かぜの一種であり、幼い子どもを中心に感染が広まっています。この流行に関して、松野官房長官は記者会見で状況を注視し、感染防止対策を呼びかけました。具体的には、症状がある場合にはマスクの着用や手洗いなどの予防策に取り組むよう促しています。
また、東京都内では新型コロナウイルスの患者数が緩やかに増加しており、都感染症対策連絡会議が開かれました。都医師会の猪口正孝・前副会長は、現時点では医療体制への大きな負荷は見られないものの、今後の動向には注意が必要だと警告しています。
さらに、子どもを中心に感染が拡大している「RSウイルス感染症」や夏風邪の一種である「ヘルパンギーナ」の流行に関して、東京感染症対策センターの賀来満夫所長は、感染対策の緩みが子どもの感染症拡大の要因になっている可能性を指摘し、マスクの着用や手洗いなどの感染対策を改めて呼びかけています。
