一人被诊断染肺结核 武吉巴督一幼儿园学生员工接受检查

武吉巴督一间幼儿园日前被诊断出染上肺结核,目前幼儿园内部分儿童和工作人员已被安排做肺结核检查,而受感染的病人在确诊后已请休,正在医院内接受治疗。

卫生部发言人表示,卫生部和肺结核控制部门(Tuberculosis Control Unit,TBCU)于上个月26日接到投报,Sparkletots幼儿园内出现肺结核病例。

他也解释,结核病并不会透过所接触的物体表面感染,而是长时间与受感染者近距离接触而传播。而病人在发现病情后,也立即申请休假开始接受治疗,因此学校不存在传染的风险。

《海峡时报》报道,其中一名家长表示上周四接收到来自幼儿园的通知,便质问幼儿园为何是在有关当局知情两周后,才被告知。

对此,幼儿园发言人回复,截至上周二才被通知幼儿园内有出现肺结核的病例,他也表示目前所有接触过该名病患的孩子也正在接受检查,大部分都是同班的孩子。

此外,儿童发展局也表示除了孩子以外,一些院内的工作人员也正在接受检查。

针对受感染的病患,行动党社区基金会(PCF)则表示无可奉告。

无扩散无需关闭幼儿园

由于结核病并没有进一步扩散,导致他人患病的风险,因此肺结核控制部门已指示他们无须关闭幼儿园。

曾是被世界卫生组织誉为是全球十大死因之一的肺结核,由经常感染肺部的细菌(结核分枝杆菌)引起,结核病通过空气在人与人之间传播。当患有肺结核的人咳嗽、打喷嚏或吐痰时,就会把结核菌喷到空气中。人们只需要吸入少数几个这类细菌就会获得感染,如不加适当治疗,结核病患者会失去生命。

结核病分为活跃型和潜伏型(latent tuberculosis),相较于活跃型结核病,潜伏型结核病不会传染,不过肺结核控制部门仍会继续与他们联系。
