State Minister of State Ashwani Chaube - Death due to Insepheitis due to negligence of officials
Posted by: Razia Ansarion: June 11, 2019

Central Desk: Like every year, the widespread widespread death of children in North Bihar is increasing in the summer this year. So far 43 children have died. Whereas, 110 are sick. Only 38 children have died from encephalitis alone in SKMCH of Muzaffarpur alone.



The Bihar government is proving to be futile in preventing this year's disease. Responsible, it seems to be flowing away. And are blaming others. Neglectful statements of leaders and ministers are showing their insensitivity.


Ashwini Choubey's strange statement

The latest statement is that of Union Health Minister Ashwani Kumar Choubey who came to Patna to attend a program in IGIMS. They said, the death of children in Muzaffarpur is a tragedy. Due to the election, the officers were busy in the election, due to which there was lack of awareness. If the Bihar government seeks help from the central government, the central government will give full help.

Mangal Pandey also had a broom

Earlier, Bihar Health Minister Mangal Pandey said that death of 11 children has been confirmed so far, but no child has died from AES in Encephalitis so far. He said that 10 children died from hypoglycemia, while one child died from Japanese encephalitis.

Union Minister Ashwini Chaube said that due to the trapped officers in the election, the focus could not be given. But now the government is paying attention. On the other hand, Bihar Health Minister Mangal Pandey denied the deaths due to AES. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar admitted that due to lack of awareness the disease has increased. He also said that the death of children is very difficult.

Whereas, more than three dozen reaches have come for treatment. More than a dozen of these conditions remain serious.
Monitoring of hospitals, children in alert mode
Given the severity of the disease, hospitals are in alert mode. The doctors' roster duty has been fixed with the necessary facilities there. The responsibility of Asha, Anganwadi worker and ANM has also been decided. Asha, Anganwadi-Assistant-Assistant and ANM to monitor the health of children in their nutritional areas to be protected from AES.

Know the symptoms of illness
The symptoms of AES are unclear, but doctors say that there are problems like fever, headache, convulsions, vomiting and unconsciousness in the brain. The body becomes weak. The child is afraid of light. Some babies get stiff neck in the neck. Even paralysis can happen.
According to doctors, there is also a very shortage of sugars in children's body in this disease. Even if the children do not eat on time, there is a lack of sugar in the body. Until it turns out, it's late. It worsens the condition of the patient.
The virus is caused by anger, such as rescue.

Nitish Kumar took the sickness
Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Monday said that this disease spread in North Bihar is not Japanese encephalitis, it is the second encephalitis. It has been done earlier in Muzaffarpur and the government has already worked on it. This year also the government is serious about the treatment of the disease. The Health Department is monitoring the matter. Perhaps due to the lack of awareness it has spread again. People have to be aware of this disease.
Mangal Pandey says: No death of encephalitis, hypoglycemia
Bihar Health Minister refused to accept the illness as encephalitis. He told that 11 children have died so far, of which 10 reasons of death were due to 'hypoglycemia' (sudden sudden reduction of sugar in the body). However, he believed that a child died from JE (Japanese encephalitis). According to Mangal Pandey, two cases of JE were found, in which one child died.
On
Monday, the Minister of Urban Development and Housing, Minister of Urban Development and Housing, Suresh Sharma visited the SKMCH and visited the children. He inquired about the arrangements for treatment from the hospital superintendent and senior physicians.
More than 350 children die in 10 years
It is known that during the last 10 years, more than three and a half hundred children in North Bihar have died of AES (Acute Encephalitis Syndrome) or Insefelopathy. In the year 2012 and 2014, the screams of the victims led to a scream of innocence that its echo reached from Patna to Delhi. Better treatment was also promised to arrange an air ambulance for carrying the children from here to Delhi. But, in the last two-three years, the promise was reduced to air and air when the disease was affected. But this year, the disease is showing its radar form.
Not to ambulances for sick children
The possibility of survival of children suffering from this disease depends on the time of treatment. The sooner the treatment will begin, the more likely it is to survive. Despite this, arrangements for the sick children are not available till the ambulance. Where was the talk of air ambulance, but for sick children, normal ambulances are not available. DPM of Muzaffarpur, BP Verma points out that there is no separate ambulance system for AES-affected children. DPM says that the State Health Committee can only make this arrangement. With no arrangement till the ambulance for sick children, the poles of the perfect system of treatment are also open.

What is a spinal fever or acute encephalitis syndrome (AES)

Spinal fever is also known as Acute Encephalitis Syndrome (AES). In this disease, the brain becomes swollen. All this happens because of viral infection. Japanese encephalitis is known in northern Bihar as a sparkle fever. This fever attacks the body's immune system and brain tissues.

Symptoms of sperm fever

Feeling of fever with headache in this disease is the biggest symptom. There is also a complaint of pain and weakness in the muscles and joints, as a victim of this disease. Signs of vomiting and irritableness are also noticed. Many times patients suffering from this also become unconscious. If the disease increases then these symptoms are noticed.

- Speaking, hearing problems

- Being paralyzed.

- Illusion

- Do not stay mind balanced.

- Fainting.

Such symptoms appear in children

- Vomiting or dizziness

- Stiffness in the body

- Increase irritation.

- Come up in the soft spots of the skull.

If there are such symptoms in children then do not panic. Ask for immediate doctors. Only after the investigation is decided whether the child is suffering from spinal fever or not.

This mysterious disease dies every year, innocent, know why the rain is waiting
Publish Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2019 06:00 PM (IST)

There is a continuation of the death of children from AES in many districts of North Bihar. This time even this mysterious disease has taken a terrible appearance. Learn about its symptoms and its safety in this news ...
Patna, Kajal Acute encephalitis syndrome (AES), which starts with a common fever or other symptoms every year in many districts of northern Bihar, has also become a terrible form this year, so that more than 55 children have died this year. Every year, in the summer, this disease comes like a monstrous disease and goes to the children.

This deadly AES disease, which has risen from the night of June 5 this year, has so far taken 57 children in this season, while 143 children are undergoing treatment. In the last one week, the death of 36 children in spinning fever has also hit the health department and the central team is on a tour of Muzaffarpur.

US and England team could not find the virus of the virus

After AES years the mysterious puzzle remains. The team of experts from America and England could not even identify the reasons. The CDC America team continued to investigate the symptoms but could not detect the virus. The team's leading member Dr. James came many times. Camp camp collects blood samples of children

JE, NIEPA, Intro Virus, Silverpura and Westnil Virus etc. were researched. But, the virus was not found. Here, the team of NICD Delhi also researched the virus with similar symptoms. However, the team could not reach the bottom of the illness.

-Sampled collection of blood, urine, and spine water of sick children.

- RamRI Patna, Pune, CDC Delhi and Atlanta team conducted research by collecting sample. However, the cause of the disease was not known in the report.

The biggest question-what is the rain

In the last 10 years, AES snatched the lives of hundreds of innocents. The biggest thing is that the disease comes in the heat and between April and June every year, this disease takes a fearful form between high temperature and excessive moisture. After that, as soon as it rains, its outbreak is reduced. It is also a matter of thinking that the rains should not be treated, but the reason for this should be known.

Rain relief from regular intervals

Statistics show that in the year April to June, there was no rain, more children died. In 2012, 336 children were affected. 120 of them died At the same time, the number of affected people reached 342 in 2014. 86 of them died

For the last three years, in these periods, lightly accurate, regular intervals have resulted in less death of children. In 2016 and 17, four children died and 11 children died in 2018. This year is not equal to rains. This is the reason that 44 innocent people have died so far.

Health Department also looks negligent

The biggest question on the death of children is that there is no specific information about this disease so far. Doctors say repeatedly as soon as treatment, as soon as the cure. But, where and how to treat? At the local level primary health centers have been paralyzed. They are referring to patients with symptoms of AES, they are referring from outside. There is no other option except to come to the city near the parents. And, it is too late to get here.

Disease took a terrible appearance in 2012

In the year 2012, the disease took a terrible appearance. More than three hundred children are sick 120 of them died In the next two years, there has been a series of deaths. But, the numbers are still intimidating. In the year 2014, the then Union Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan visited the district. The then Chief Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi also came.

Scope of disease

There is a growing scope of this disease which is taking place in the eyes of innocents. In addition to the districts of North Bihar, it has spread to the lowlands of Nepal. The districts which are affected include Muzaffarpur, Eastern Champaran, West Champaran, Shivar, Sitamarhi and Vaishali.

What is the sparkle fever or AES

The truth is that after many research, neither the cause of the disease nor the security of the rescue could be ascertained. Treatment is based on similar symptoms of illness. Due to this, it was named AES (Acute Encephalitis Syndrome) or Encephalopathy. However, in the local language, this disease is called a sparky fever.

CM also expressed deep concern

Chief Minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar, also expressed deep concern over the matter on Monday and asked the Principal Secretary of Health Department to pay full attention to this. CM had said that the government is worried about the death of children and how it is dealt with, the work is going on?

State Health Minister gave cleanliness, said-no death from AES

Bihar Health Minister Mangal Pandey has described the reasons for these deaths as hypoglycemia as AES. Mangal Pandey had said on Monday that death of 11 children has been confirmed so far, but no child has died from AES or Encephalitis so far. He said that 10 out of 11 children died from hypoglycemia while one child died from Japanese encephalitis.

Awkward statement of Union Health Minister

Union Minister of State for Health Ashwani Kumar Choubey said, "The death of children in Muzaffarpur is a tragedy. Due to the election the officials were busy in the election, due to which there was lack of awareness. If the Bihar government seeks help from the central government, the central government will give full help.

Comment:

In this data, there seems to be very little confirmatory evidence for the deaths that are being called JE. I have not seen any media uproar about 111 deaths in Odisha.

Given that post #14 reports two fatal cases of JE in Assam, the most recent NVBDCP report (post #12) puts the number of fatal cases in West Bengal at 16 total (15 AES, 1 JE) and Bihar has reported 64 fatal cases the combined toll this year is at least 288 fatalities. - Ro

One in eight and the other has the capacity of six beds. There is three and four seconds on the floor. The ICU of PICU Three and Medicines and Gynecology Department has been made PICU Four as an alternative mechanism for the ICU of Ortho and Surgery Department.

In Bihar, 125 children died from the AES, weather or virus, the cause is not known ...
Publish Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2019 12:41 PM (IST)

In Bihar, 125 children have died so far from AES. The reason for the AES disorder has not been found yet. Someone thinks that this is due to the weather, so a virus is telling.
Muzaffarpur, JNN So far in Bihar, 125 children have died from acute encephalitis syndrome, AES. In Muzaffarpur, 101 children died due to this disease, while five in Samastipur, five in Motihari, one in Patna and one in Navada also reported the death of a child. With such a large number of deaths, many children are elaborate, some of which are conditional of children.

So far the causes of AES could not be ascertained

The results of the ongoing research over the years of AES have not been encouraging. There is no confirmation of any virus in the report of country and foreign investigating agencies. However, in these reports it has been said that there are no known viruses of encephalitis.


On Sunday, Union Health Minister Dr Harshvardhan told reporters after taking AES-infested children that the virological lab would be started soon in SKMCH for the virus investigation into the causes of the disease. Here the infrastructure is ready for this.

In the cause of AES due to health minister, there can be a big debate on the slightest fears about the virus. Because, from the doctor to the level of the department, the fear of virus has been dismissed.

It is known that NIV Pune, NCDC and CDC Atlanta had examined the samples of children of AES-affected children and CSF (spine). None of the viruses found in encephalitis have been found. However, it was also feared that its unknown viruses could also happen.

Trapped cracks between viruses and weather

Dr. Gopal Shankar Sahni, the Head of Department of Pediatric Diseases of SKMCH, still only show cause for this disease due to heat and moisture. They say that if the virus was due to this disease many children would not be able to recover in just two to three hours. They take time to do it

Apart from these, many doctors also told the reason that due to moisture due to the rush of children in the deep sun in the village, much sweat flows. The structure of houses of poor families was also such that sweating would have flown away due to excessive moisture. In such a way, there is a shortage of sugar and sodium in the body of the children. This leads to an unconscious state.

But, in many cases, such children also suffer from those who do not get out of the house. Many such children also suffer from this disease, which is not even one year old. This is the situation where experts do not even deny the virus behind the disease.
