The Jeju Special Autonomous Province announced Wednesday that it should vaccinate and abide by the rules for the prevention of infectious diseases, as it is feared that chicken pox and mumps will become prevalent.
Chicken pox and mumps are an infectious disease that is spread by respiratory secretions such as droplets (droplets) and runny noses, which are secreted when the patient coughs.
The incidence is high among young children and young children in primary school and the incidence increases from April to June and from October to January of each year.
Chickenpox is caused by mild fever and occurs in the body for about a week, by direct contact with the bulbous lesion and by airborne transmission of respiratory secretions.
Mumps is responsible for 20% of asymptomatic infections and, when symptoms are present, the parotid gland (salivary gland) swells and spreads to the droplets (saliva) secreted during a cough for about a week.
Completion of vaccination on time will prevent the onset of infection and, if infected, may be sick to prevent complications. If you are vaccinated against chickenpox and MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) between 12 and 15 months and the MMR vaccine between 4 and 6 years, you should consult the vaccination booklet.
Immunization records and the status of designated medical facilities can be confirmed via the home page of the Immunization Assistant (https://nip.cdc.go.kr) and the application Smartphone Vaccination Assistant at the headquarters of the fight against the disease.
In addition, in order to avoid any contact with other people in the nearest medical facility immediately after the suspicion of symptoms, active cooperation between the school and the parents is required so not to return to school or school (including school) during the transmission period.
Medical facilities must verify the immunization status of children aged 12 and under who have reported to the hospital and, in the event of a missed immunization or vaccination period, they will need to be vaccinated. .
National vaccinations are available free of charge at one of the nearest public health centers and 121 national hospitals on Jeju Island.
An official from Jeju Island said: "When we live in a group, it can be transmitted collectively even if it is infected with an infection."<헤드라인제주>
