More soup, spring rolls paste is dangerous
Affect not remember the last he is eating pig blood pudding day but sometimes I still eat. Just remember, noon 13 / 4, he suddenly sudden high fever, accompanied by abdominal pain, diarrhea constantly. After being taken to the hospital family, Thai Nguyen, and then be transferred directly to the tropical disease institute national one day soon, people are tired tired, again with high fever, headache, especially in full body (especially the head, two arms, two legs) appear multiple deep red spots, necrosis unpleasant smell, he goes and lim residents do not think I could survive.

Intermediate BS.ThS Nguyen, Faculty of active treatment (Institute of Tropical Diseases country) said patients were severe sepsis, was hospitalized in a state of blood pressure has dropped, the money shock. "Must be hard for us to grab back the lives of patients with death, because an infection is too severe. So far, though drama of danger, but the skin necrosis on the patient is still very clear, the skin is immature and will again, "said BS level.

But Le Van Duc patients (35 years old in Thuan Thanh, Bac Ninh Province) were a form other diseases that cause swine streptococcus infections: meningitis. This patient did not remember the history of contact with pigs, but he still regularly processed pig meat.

The patient also manifested the disease in Germany since Tuesday 13 / 4, with expression headache, vomiting, but many people do not appear on the red. After 5 days of headache, vomiting last he entered the hospital treatment of Bac Ninh Province. Two days of treatment at provincial hospitals do not help, the patient was transferred directly to the Institute for Tropical Diseases and the National confirmed meningitis caused by Streptococcus pigs.

When detecting danger pork sick, sick, dying, then it is best not to eat.

We listened to many people as blue ear pig disease, swine Streptococcus disease does not dare to eat pork. In fact, when meat is cooked, the bacteria completely destroyed.

Thing to note is be careful when processing of pork: It should use plastic gloves when washing, cut meat.

BS level, said this is normal bacteria living in some pigs throat without causing disease. But when pigs infected with blue ear virus, the immune health decline that streptococcus bacteria thrive, causing pneumonia, blood infections for pigs.

Meanwhile, farmers find themselves sick pigs have expressed a hurry to sell meat. Therefore, it is difficult to recognize the pig meat pneumonia, septicemia caused by streptococcus bacteria, the pig skin did not show signs of hemorrhage.

When the pigs slaughtered this disease, or go without proper disposal, then the meat before cooking, even many who do not know the patient should still eat pork products from pigs as fresh details farming, pig hearts, nem paste ... then the body will absorb a large amount of streptococcus bacteria that live pigs. Especially on the background of patients such as diabetes, liver failure, alcoholism ... the swine streptococcus bacteria cause disease more likely.

According to the BS level, usually pig Streptococcus infections occur year round, any time. But the "seasonal" service, the number of blue ear pig disease streptococcus swine more, so some people have the disease as "prosperity" in ear diseases outbreaks. When pigs infected swine streptococcus bacteria, the bacteria are no longer localized in the throat raw anymore, but it attacks the organs to other organs, such as eating meat causes the pigs were manifested disease, the risk will be higher than the children carry the virus but not yet manifested the disease.

Can still re-infection

BS level, said swine Streptococcus disease in humans is often one of three possible: meningitis may like the other latex meningitis, septicemia, and can be 3 is a combination of both.

Depending on the disease that infected patients may have different manifestations. As with meningitis, patients may fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness perception gradually lead to coma. If infected blood, the sudden high fever, a severe infection, can quickly hypotension, shock. Often local people with weak body prone to infections than blood and can be very dangerous disease, rapid progression into easy-tainted body organs causing more deterioration and expression characteristic appearance of the necrosis skin.

Significant danger from exposure, disease eating pork, time-onset disease is very fast. At the Institute of national tropical disease has been recognized disease patients started fast, just 16 hours after eating sick pigs.

"This disease is easily spread through the nature of gastrointestinal (eating pork, nem Welcome, blood pudding was not cooked), but also spread through contact. Therefore, the risk of infection comes from processing, behavior, rinse pork (because limbs can not detect the rubbing scratches and swine streptococcus bacteria can enter the body through the traces of this trauma.) Virtually all patients infected with this disease are exposed to pigs, "said BS level.

Add a point to note is that once infected swine streptococcus bacteria, patients can still get completely back later. Because the disease is the same as normal streptococcus infection, leaving no lasting immunity to the body.
