Two suspected cases of leptospirosis are being monitored at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC). This is a development which,Jerseys NFL Wholesale China Online, Health Minister Dr Leslie Ramsammy said, was very much expected as a result of the flooding situation in some sections of the country.He disclosed, also, that another suspected case has been transferred from a private hospital to the GPHC.At a press conference yesterday, the minister reported that 68 cases of leptospirosis have been detected for the year, due to rainfalls which led to flooding during the period January to December.The minister pointed out that the 68 cases detected for this year occurred in various areas around the country, and not in a single area.Minister Ramsammy stressed that persons should not panic, but,NFL Jerseys Outlet, with the media fraternity,Alex Delvecchio Red Wings Jersey, should collaborate with the Health Ministry in order to stop the disease, which is in fact a real threat.According to the minister, leptopirosis is a disease that is present in Guyana and will spike under certain conditions.“eople ought to be conscious of this…2005 was not so long ago, and we should not forget that people suffered much because of leptospirosis. It is true that we were successful in stopping the outbreak, but we do not want a repetition of 2005. It is present in the environment, and it will spread when there is a flooding situation,” Dr Ramsammy said.He highlighted that whenever there is no rain or flooding situation, the incidence of leptospirosis is usually between zero and one; but can rise to between two and three cases when there is heavy rainfall.“We have been monitoring during this kind of extended flooding situation, and we haven’t seen spikes as yet. We fully expect that there will be spikes (that is: a number that is above what we normally see). We will not be surprised if we find that…In fact, I will be quite surprised if we don’t find it.”Because of the looming leptospirosis threat,Austin Hooper Falcons Jersey UK, the minister said, citizens in flood affected areas are continually being cautioned to stay out of the waters.

He added that volunteers have been alerted, should their assistance be required.The volunteers, the minister said, are drawn from the various political parties and the religious body that had supported the ministry during the 2005 flood.“We are not about, today or tomorrow, to start the prophylactic programme, but we could start this afternoon if we want to,Authentic NFL Jerseys Wholesale China, because everything is in place to do so…”The minister said that he is working closely with his technical officers, adding that whenever they feel it is necessary to start the programme, it will commence.However, he noted that there should not be total reliance on prophylactic programmes, but rather, the behaviour of citizens should be channelled in such a way as to stop any potential outbreak.
