00:00Human Meta-Pneumovirus

00:30Dr. Buri Ranga Reddy

00:32Namaste

00:34First, many people are very scared

00:36They are not able to say the name

00:38They are remembering the COVID-19

00:40that came 4 years ago in 2020

00:42Is it really that dangerous?

00:44Before I tell you

00:46if it is dangerous or not

00:48I would like to give you

00:50a small advice

00:52The advice is

00:54whether it is

00:56the media,

00:58the government

01:00or the people

01:02It is not a new virus

01:04It is not a novel virus

01:06It is not a novel virus

01:08The reason why

01:10I am telling you this

01:12is that

01:14whether it is a circular

01:16from the Indian government

01:18or

01:20whether it is a circular

01:22from the states

01:24In all these

01:26It is impossible

01:28to believe such cases

01:30in India

01:32Because

01:34HMPV virus

01:36is not only in India

01:38but in many other countries

01:40in the world

01:42it is in circulation

01:44Not only

01:46it is in circulation

01:48Today,

01:50whether it is doctors

01:52or scientists

01:54there is a complete discussion

01:56What is this virus?

01:58What are its origins?

02:00How does it spread?

02:02How to diagnose it?

02:04How to manage it?

02:06There is a complete discussion

02:08about it

02:10As you said

02:12Today

02:14there are news stories

02:16coming up

02:18especially in social media

02:20Something is happening

02:225 years ago

02:24COVID-19 came

02:26Today,

02:28the same thing is happening

02:30again and again

02:32The visuals

02:34and the titles

02:36are very irrelevant

02:38This is

02:40a way to scare people

02:42This is not

02:44fact-based or science-based

02:46This is what I wanted to say

02:48You said

02:50it is happening

02:52in China

02:54Can you tell us more about it?

02:56I will ask

02:58In general,

03:00COVID-19 came as a pandemic

03:02Now, it is endemic

03:04Just a while ago,

03:06the Central Government said

03:08it is already endemic

03:10Can you tell us more about it?

03:12The statement

03:14from the government

03:16is absolutely correct

03:18The statement

03:20from the Central Government

03:22or the State Government

03:24is not correct

03:26to say that there are no cases

03:28in our country

03:30It is a good idea

03:32to correct it

03:34Now,

03:36the epidemic

03:38is

03:40in India

03:42mainly in young children

03:44It is a seasonal

03:46disease

03:48like flu,

03:50respiratory tract infections

03:52and upper respiratory tract infections

03:54It is seasonal

03:56It comes and goes every year

03:58Generally,

04:00in 5-7 days,

04:02it recovers

04:04with

04:06symptomatic treatment

04:08It is endemic

04:10It is normal

04:12Why is it

04:14so dangerous now?

04:16There are reports

04:18that it is dangerous in China

04:20There are reports

04:22that it is dangerous in China

04:24Why is it so dangerous now?

04:26Why is it so dangerous now?

04:28It is

04:30infodemic

04:32I can use only one word

04:34It is

04:36infodemic

04:38It is

04:40not based on

04:42social media

04:44It is a hype created in social media

04:46The hype created

04:48in social media

04:50is also created in media

04:52There is a situation

04:54where a small

04:56virus is shown

04:58as a pandemic in a small

05:00virus in a small

05:02virus in a small

05:04virus in a small

05:34virus in a small

05:36As soon as we come to our senses, we feel that there is going to be a disaster.

05:40Such a fear, such a concern is a normal thing.

05:46But here we need to decide on some truths.

05:52Through that only we can understand this situation.

05:57But what we should do, what the government should do,

06:00how our action should be, how we should behave,

06:03only that will be the basis.

06:06The first news that came out,

06:09that is, 10 days ago,

06:12through the first social media,

06:15the news that came out was,

06:18people are dying due to dust storms in China,

06:21hospitals are being demolished,

06:24there are no places in the cemeteries.

06:27The visuals used for that,

06:30the COVID-19 visuals at the peak,

06:33these 4 viruses have spread in China in opposite way,

06:41through that we are going to have a COVID-19 situation.

06:45What are these 4 viruses, these 4 microorganisms?

06:49One, as you said earlier, HMPV,

06:52Influenza A,

06:55similarly COVID-19,

06:58as well as Mycoplasma.

07:01These 4 viruses, these 4 microorganisms are not novel viruses.

07:08That is, they are not unknown to us.

07:11If we take into consideration their individuality and virulence,

07:20none of these will have a pandemic potential,

07:24except for Influenza A.

07:27If we say, this is going to happen a lot,

07:304 viruses came out at once,

07:33life loss, wealth loss,

07:36all this is going to happen,

07:39my opinion is that there is no possibility in that.

07:42So, COVID is also an infection related to the upper respiratory tract.

07:46HMPV is also an infection related to the upper respiratory tract,

07:50i.e., nose, throat, etc.

07:53So, how does it affect our health?

07:56It could be a general infection, but what are the symptoms?

07:59How does it affect our health?

08:02Generally, HMPV, Influenza, etc.

08:07have more or less the same symptoms.

08:12Cold, cough, slight fever,

08:15sore throats, etc.

08:18These symptoms usually come to us.

08:21So, it is difficult to differentiate these.

08:25It is difficult for ordinary people to differentiate between HMPV, Influenza, etc.

08:33It is also difficult for doctors.

08:35But when we go to the doctors,

08:38they have molecular diagnostics,

08:41we have a lot of advanced diagnostics.

08:43It is difficult to make a differential diagnosis based on that.

08:47After making that differential diagnosis,

08:50once we identify the causative organism,

08:53i.e., the cause of the infection,

08:59they tell us about its management.

09:04Generally, we do not have a specific treatment for HMPV.

09:11We treat it according to the symptoms of the disease.

09:16Sometimes, this disease can be complicated.

09:21At that time, the doctors know what to do.

09:24They know what kind of tests to do and what kind of treatment to do.

09:28So, there is no need to worry.

09:30Generally, let us say COVID-19.

09:34Pandemic or endemic, it does not show the same intensity in everyone.

09:38HMPV has a chance to show more intensity in some people.

09:43If it is not possible for certain age groups,

09:45there will be problems in others.

09:47So, it is important to be careful.

09:49It is a very good question.

09:51It is a very useful information for the people.

09:56So, it is important to listen to it carefully.

10:00Until HMPV comes,

10:02people who are mainly affected by HMPV

10:06are either very young or old.

10:10Because, generally,

10:12in these two groups of population,

10:14we have less immunity.

10:16They have a chance to get affected by this disease soon.

10:20Similarly, people who have comorbidities,

10:25like chronic kidney disease or cancer,

10:31or some other chronic diseases,

10:36due to which their immunity is reduced,

10:39they are mainly vulnerable population.

10:42This is not a big problem for young and normally immune people.

10:48They also get affected by this disease.

10:52In these vulnerable groups,

10:56it is important to focus on prevention.

11:03What is prevention?

11:05Primarily, HMPV is a droplet infection.

11:11When a person is infected,

11:13whether he coughs or sneezes,

11:15there are small droplets in his body.

11:21Because of that, the other person gets infected.

11:25So, people who have respiratory infection,

11:31if they want to prevent the other person from getting infected,

11:34they should wear a mask.

11:37If they have any symptoms,

11:42they should not go into the society.

11:45If they are working,

11:47they should not go to the workplace.

11:49Similarly, there are children.

11:51The responsibility of parents is

11:53to give them proper nutrition,

11:56to give them more liquids,

11:58to treat them if they have any symptoms,

12:02and most importantly,

12:03not to send them to school.

12:05Because, if they are sent to school,

12:08they will infect another 10 people.

12:11Those 10 people will infect another 10 people.

12:13In this way, more people will be affected by this disease.

12:18So, parents should do this.

12:21As for the elderly,

12:23as it is festival season,

12:26everyone wants to spend this festival with their families.

12:32In such a situation,

12:34they should wear a mask and wash their hands properly.

12:39By taking such preventive measures,

12:42they will be able to prevent this disease from entering their body.

12:49Sir, there are two cases in Karnataka.

12:53Did we get to know about these cases through sequencing and tests?

12:57Even during COVID,

12:58we specifically sent samples to the lab to collect information.

13:03Is there any chance for the government to take such measures now?

13:06What are the processes?

13:08As you said,

13:09these two cases are done by the central government and state governments.

13:14There is a routine surveillance,

13:16which is carried out on a weekly basis.

13:18Routine surveillance is carried out by IDSP, NCDC and ICMR.

13:25There are two cases in Karnataka,

13:29but not all of them.

13:30There may be many cases.

13:32In this routine surveillance,

13:33two cases have been identified.

13:35This is an ordinary process.

13:38The central and state governments

13:43are always doing surveillance.

13:46They monitor the prevalence of diseases,

13:48their intensity,

13:50and prevalence.

13:51These things happen from time to time.

13:53In this case also,

13:54routine surveillance is carried out.

13:58So,

13:59one thing I would like to say again and again is that,

14:02whatever is written in the news,

14:06first,

14:07HMPV case identified in India

14:10is a pure mistake.

14:12It is not correct at all.

14:14As I said earlier,

14:15every year,

14:16a few thousand people are infected with HMPV virus.

14:20This year also,

14:21the same thing is happening.

14:22The central government,

14:24in the circular that was given today,

14:26made it very clear.

14:28There is not much difference between the data from a few years ago and this year.

14:34If last year,

14:35we had 1000 cases,

14:38this year also,

14:39there is the same number.

14:40This has not increased significantly.

14:42So,

14:43be peaceful.

14:44Take the vulnerable groups in your self-isolation groups,

14:51and be happy with the Sankranti Sambarams.

14:57Thank you so much.

14:59Namaste.

15:00So,

15:01HMPV is not a new disease in India.

15:05It has been there since a long time.

15:07So,

15:08It has been there since a long time.

15:10So,

15:11as a part of routine surveillance,

15:12these two cases were identified in Karnataka.

15:14On the other hand,

15:15we have endemic disease.

15:17That means,

15:18it has all kinds of symptoms like fever and cough.

15:20So,

15:21there is no need to be afraid.

15:22And more,

15:23regarding this,

15:24what kind of treatment is needed?

15:25What are the symptoms?

15:26How to treat this?

15:27We have the data from a long time ago.

15:30So,

15:31it is not that dangerous.

15:32There is no need to worry about this,

15:35says Dr. Buriranga Reddy.

15:37This is Ramya from TV News, Hyderabad.
