HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM MALARIA

Many of tourists travelling to African countries are afraid of two exotic diseases: yellow fever and malaria. And if you can providently do a vaccination against the first one, but it seems impossible to avoid the meeting with the second one. What is the guarantee that the bit of the local mosquito will not bring any consequences except a short itch? But on the other hand, how do the locals survive in such conditions?


Malaria in Tanzania: myths and truth

As in any similar area with warm humid climate, there are really some cases of malaria infection in Tanzania. But it doesn’t mean that this insidious disease is waiting for you in every corner of the country.



There are four kinds of malarial plasmodium disease infected insects which parasitize on Anopheles - mosquitoes. These bloodsucking mosquitoes do not live everywhere: they are closely linked to standing water and do not fly away further than 8 km. Therefore, the risk to be bitten by a malarial mosquito is high only in places of their permanent habitat: in tropical forests, slopes, marshes, the drying water area and so on.



For example, in the dry savannah and Northern Tanzania where there are cool nights and mountain climate, you almost cannot meet Anopheles. They live in tropical forests, marshes and isles, but only if the air temperature will be comfortable for reproduction of plasmodium (above 20°C) and there will be no wind.



To catch malaria, the following conditions shall be met:

The environment should be favorable for activities of control the disease vector (standing water, high humidity, boggy or forest terrain).
When it gets dark (Anopheles -mosquitoes bite only in the dark time!), you go out without any repellents and with minimal clothes. Or you go to bed without fumigator and insecticide-treated bednet.
Mosquito needs to drink some blood of infected man 4-10 days before to meet you.
You have a weakened immune system by any long illness and you cannot resist an infection.


How to protect yourself from malaria?

On the advices of doctors and seasoned travelers, there are two ways to cope with the potential disease:



Take drugs for the prevention

The course of special medicines is recommended, to prepare your body to the possible meeting with the malarial mosquito. The most popular are Lariam, Doxycycline, Malarone (or Malanil).

It is advisable to start the prevention before the departure and continue it during all the journey and 2-4 weeks after leaving the country.



But you should note that all these drugs are not harmless for your health because they have a lot of contraindications which could have a negative impact on your body. Liver, intestinal tract, the organs of vision and nervous systems could be affected because of such prevention. Therefore, we advise you to discuss it with your doctor before taking these medicines.



To be careful

If you do not want to share your journey with all possible side effects, so take repellents, long sleeves clothes and choose a good place to sleep. Hotels are equipped with mosquito nets with insecticide. Air-conditioners help well because mosquitoes are afraid of coolness and plasmodium does not develop at temperatures below +20 °C.


Symptoms of malaria and its treatment

Be careful! Pay attention on following symptoms:

1. weakness, drowsiness, headache
2. increase in body temperature
3. muscle and joint pain


Other characteristics (attacks of chills and fever, sweating, vomit, dizziness, yellowing of eyes) appear in 10-40 days after infection. A preventive intake of drugs does not guarantee hundred-percent reliability of the potential infection. In case of suspicious symptoms, it is necessary to address to any clinic make malaria rapid diagnostic test. Upon detection of the infection you have to take a course of special medicines (Koartem proved itself perfectly, it has an effect on all species of plasmodium and relieve symptoms of disease in a day after the first intake).



And finally, Tanzania has a high level of health care, therefore there are not severe forms of malaria here. With the timely address to doctors, this disease is treated as easy as influenza.

So, do not give up an unforgettable journey because of mosquitoes

MTI WENYE UMRI MREFU ZAIDI DUNIANI WAGUNDULIKA KILIMANJARO TANZANIA

Siku chache baada ya wanasayansi kubaini mti mrefu zaidi barani Afrika katika Mlima wa Kilimanjaro nchini Tanzania sasa wataalam hao wamefanya ugunduzi mwengine kuhusu mti huo.

Wataalam hao kutoka chuo kikuu cha Beyreuth Ujerumani sasa wamegundua kwamba mti huo ndio ulio na miaka mingi zaidi duniani.

Kulingana na gazeti la Mwananchi nchini Tanzania, Mtafiti wa viumbe hai na mazingira kutoka Chuo hicho Dk Andrew Hemp ameelezea sifa za mti huo ujulikanao kama Mkukusu kuwa unaweza kuishi kati ya miaka 200 hadi 300, lakini ulioonekana nchini una miaka 600.

Mti huo unapatikana katika Kijiji cha Tema wilayani Moshi, na upo katika eneo lililopo kwenye Hifadhi ya Taifa ya Mlima Kilimanjaro (kinapa).

Dk Andrew amesema kwa mujibu wa utafiti mti huo una uwezo wa kuishi miaka hiyo kwa kutunzwa na kuhifadhiwa.


Kulingana na gazeti hilo la mwananchi ,Amesema kwamba katika utafiti walioufanya barani Afrika waligundua miti mirefu 31, lakini Mkukusu wa Moshi ndiyo mrefu kuliko yote na una umri wa miaka 600 hivi sasa ukiwa umevuka kiwango cha juu cha maisha ya miti ya aina hiyo.

Tayari Serikali imeiagiza Kinapa kuboresha miundombinu ya barabara ili kuweza kuufikia mti huo iwapo watalii watataka kwenda kuuona.

Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Kilimanjaro, Said Meck Sadiki amesema mti huo utasaidia kuongeza mapato kwa kasi kwa kuwa ni kivutio kipya cha utalii ndani ya mkoa huu.

Mhifadhi Mkuu wa Kinapa, Betrita Loibok amesema agizo hilo litazingatiwa kwa kushirikiana na Mamlaka ya Hifadhi za Taifa (Tanapa) ili mti huo uweze kuwa kivutio ndani na nje ya chini

ya nchi.

TUMBLI APATIKANA AKIFANYA MAPENZI NA PAA


Tumbili mmoja kutoka Japan amerekodiwa katika kanda ya video akijaribu kufanya mapenzi na paa.

Watafiti walimuona mnyama huyo akijaribu kufanya mapenzi na paa wawili mnamo mwezi Novemba 2015 wakati wa msimu wa uzalishaji wa tumbili.

Tumbili hao wamekuwa wakionekana wakijaribu kuwapandia paa hao katika mchezo.

Tabia hiyo imeorodhshwa katika utafiti uliochapishwa katika jarida kuhusu nyani.

Tumbili huyo wa kiume asiye na hamu ya kufanya mapenzi na tumbili wenzake na amekuwa akiwafukuza tumbili wengine waume ambao wamekuwa wakimkaribia.

Mwanzilishi mwenza wa utafiti huo Alexandre Bonnefoy alisema: Tumbili huyo alimpanda paa huyo na kuonyesha tabia za kujamiana zilizoshirikisha tabia 15 tofauti za kufanya tendo la ngono katika kipindi cha sekunde 10 kabla ya kufanya mapenzi.

Sio mfano wa kwanza kwa wanyama tofauti kutekeleza tendo hilo.

Mwaka 2014, ripoti ya Seal kujamiana na Penguin iligonga vichwa vya habari.
