CIUDAD DEL CABO, Sud\u00e1frica (AP).- Las autoridades de salud sudafricanas afirman que dos personas han muerto esta semana tras contraer la viruela s\u00edmica, y que parece que existe transmisi\u00f3n local de la enfermedad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El Ministerio de Salud inform\u00f3 el jueves que un hombre de 38 a\u00f1os muri\u00f3 en la provincia oriental de KwaZulu-Natal el mi\u00e9rcoles, el mismo d\u00eda en que un an\u00e1lisis de laboratorio confirm\u00f3 que hab\u00eda contra\u00eddo el virus. Otro hombre falleci\u00f3 el lunes en un hospital cercano a Johannesburgo, indic\u00f3 la dependencia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El ministro de Salud, Joe Phaahla, dijo que las dos muertes se encontraban entre los seis casos recientes confirmados de viruela s\u00edmica en Sud\u00e1frica, todos ellos en hombres de treinta y tantos a\u00f1os. Algunos ten\u00edan m\u00faltiples parejas sexuales, tanto hombres como mujeres. Las pruebas gen\u00e9ticas de los tres primeros casos mostraron que los hombres ten\u00edan la versi\u00f3n menos grave de la viruela s\u00edmica, que se extendi\u00f3 por todo el mundo en un brote que comenz\u00f3 en 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ninguno de los hombres ten\u00eda antecedentes de viaje a pa\u00edses que actualmente experimentan un brote, \u201clo que indica que hay transmisi\u00f3n local de esta enfermedad infecciosa\u201d, manifest\u00f3 Phaahla.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
