this year, the patients were more than last year
according to the responsible person of the medical department of the city infectious disease hospital. This year the first patient of the brain was admitted to the hospital half a month ago. After that, nearly 30 patients were admitted. "Only 8 were admitted yesterday afternoon. Most of them were from Shangdong Province-owned Hospital and Shandong University." Some of the heavier patients have fallen into coma due to the transfer of the hospital. This year, the incidence of encephalitis B is more intense than that of last year, and the incidence of the disease has gradually expanded from teenagers to all ages. "The symptoms of these patients are basically the same, first fever, and then headache, vomiting and drowsiness, and three or four days later there is a lack of awareness." Song Xiuguang, director of the Department of intensive medicine, said that the brain is an acute infectious disease transmitted by mosquitoes and zoonotic diseases. In summer and autumn, it is the peak period of the disease. It is urgent and often involves the central nervous system of the patients. Once the patient has a longer coma, it will leave behind all kinds of neurological disorders, such as mental retardation, limb movement disorders, and so on.
according to the hospital, most of the patients are from rural areas and suburbs, especially near pig farms. "The encephalitis virus is mostly carried by the pig, the mosquito bites the virus to carry the virus, and then bites the human to enter the human body, but it can be assured that there will be no communication between people." The person in charge of the medical department said.

every year there will be patients with encephalitis B, so people do not have to panic about the emergence of the brain, so long as the correct precautions are taken, the infection of the encephalitis B can be avoided.
when the human body is bitten by a mosquito carrying the encephalitis virus, after the incubation period, the patient will continue to have high fever accompanied by headache, vomiting, disturbance of consciousness, cramps, meningeal irritation and so on.

If the patients have these symptoms, they should be closely observed and sent to the Jinan Infectious Disease Hospital as early as possible.
