Amavunja ni indwara mbi cyane iterwa n'umwanda, ikaba ikwirakwira mu buryo bwihuse iyo utabyitayeho nk'iyo hari uyirwaye mu muryango.
Amavunja arandura cyane kandi ubushakashatsi bugaragaza uburyo iyi ndwara yandurira ku bantu benshi, cyane cyane mu muryango cyangwa ahantu hahurira abantu benshi nka za kaminuza, amashuri, ibigo nderabuzima, cyangwa mu miryango.
Amavunja iterwa n’agasimba kitwa Sarcoptes scabiei, gashobora kwandura abantu benshi binyuze mu buryo butandukanye, nko guhana ibiganza, kwegerana cyane, cyangwa gusangira ibikoresho by’ibanze nk’amakote, ibirenge, ibiryamirwa, cyangwa uburiri.
Uko amavunja yandura:
Amavunja akwirakwira ku buryo bwihuse kubera uburyo agasimba gatera ibibyimba mu ruhu rw’umuntu. Agasimba gashobora kumara igihe kingana n’ibyumweru umunani imbere yo kugaragara, bityo bituma abantu batamenya ko bari baranduye mbere. Agasimba gasohora urushyi mu ruhu rw’umuntu, bigatuma habaho ibyuririzi by’ibibyimba, ububabare n’umuriro.
Ibi byuririzi, cyangwa burrows, bifasha gusohora amagi y’agasimba, aho abanyarwanda benshi bahura n’ikibazo cy’ibyuririzi byibasiye ibice byinshi by’umubiri, nk’intoki, amaboko, imikaya, no ku birenge, harimo n’ahari ahantu hatangwa igitugu nk’umukandara.
Ubushakashatsi bwakozwe kuri iyi ndwara bugaragaza ko hari uburyo butandukanye amavunja ashobora kwanduriramo. Ahenshi cyane ni mu buryo bwo guhura cyangwa kwegerana ku buryo bwo gukorana.
Iyo umuntu umwe yanduye, agasimba kava mu mubiri we kagakwirakwira binyuze mu miryango, inshuti cyangwa mu baturage bari ahantu hamwe. Iyi ndwara yandura binyuze mu kuryoherana cyane cyane mu gihe abantu bakora ibikorwa byo kuba hafi cyangwa guhura muri rusange, bigatuma yoroha gukwirakwira.
Ubushakashatsi ku bijyanye no kwandura amavunja mu muryango:
Ubushakashatsi bwakozwe mu bihugu bitandukanye bwerekanye ko amavunja yandura cyane mu miryango, aho umuntu umwe ashobora kuba intandaro yo gukwirakwiza indwara mu bandi. Ku buryo bworoshye, ibiheri by’inkuruka bituruka ku muryango umwe bigenda bigaragara mu bagize urugo.
Ibi bigaragazwa na raporo z’ibigo nderabuzima na za kaminuza aho amavunja yandura ku buryo bworoshye mu miryango, cyane cyane iyo habayeho kutita ku isuku cyangwa kugira aho umuntu ahurira na we akavurwa. Muri rusange, abantu basangiza ibikoresho nk’amakote cyangwa imiriro bashobora kwandura amavunja.
Ubushakashatsi kandi bwerekanye ko igihe cyo gukwirakwira amavunja gitandukana bitewe n’icyiciro cy’abantu. Abana n’abakecuru nibo bagaragaza ibyago byinshi byo kwandura, kuko umubiri wabo uba utabasha gukingira neza indwara nk’amavunja.
Urubyiruko rwari hagati y’imyaka 18 na 35 rwasanganywe ibyago byinshi byo gukwirakwiza amavunja kubera ko hari byinshi bakora mu miryango n’amatsinda, bituma barandura byoroshye.
Ibi bibazo by’uburwayi byatanzwe muri raporo nyinshi zo ku rwego rw’igihugu, zirimo n’ishami ry’Umuryango w’Abibumbye ryita ku Buzima, OMS, aho hakomeje gushyirwamo imbaraga mu gusaba abantu kwirinda guhura mu matsinda hamwe no kwita ku isuku ku buryo budasanzwe mu rwego rwo guhangana n’ikwirakwira ry’amavunja.
Uburyo bwo kurandura Amavunja:
Amavunja arandura mu buryo bwihuse iyo imiti ikoreshejwe neza. Imiti ikoresha amavuta nka permethrin na malathion niyo ikoreshwa cyane mu kuvura amavunja, ariko ubushakashatsi bwerekanye ko hari ikibazo cy’ubucuruzi ku isoko ryo kubura izo miti, bigatuma abantu batabona uburyo bwiza bwo kuvura amavunja.
Ubushakashatsi bwerekanye kandi ko habaho ibibazo mu kubona imiti iboneka cyane mu bihugu byinshi kubera ibura ry’imiti nka benzyl benzoate (cyangwa imiti y’inyongera), n’ibindi bisubizo by’ubuvuzi butandukanye. Iyi miti isaba kwishyirwa ku mubiri wose, kandi abantu bose bafite aho bahurira n’umurwayi bagomba kuvurwa kugira ngo indwara itandure.
Icyo gukora kugira ngo wirinde Amavunja:
Ubushakashatsi bwashyize ahagaragara ko kugira isuku no kwirinda kugabana ibikoresho n’abandi bantu ari ingenzi mu kwirinda amavunja. Guhana ibiganza mbere y’uko umuntu arya cyangwa agakorana n’abandi bantu, guhanagura ibikoresho no kwirinda kugira aho uhura n’abarwayi ni bumwe mu buryo bw’ibanze bwo kwirinda kwandura iyi ndwara.
Ibindi bikorwa birimo gukaraba neza imyenda, kuba mu bwigunge mu gihe wumva ibimenyetso by’amavunja, ndetse no kubahiriza amabwiriza y’abaganga, bigomba gukurikizwa kugira ngo amavunja adakwirakwira mu bantu benshi.
Ubushakashatsi bwerekanye ko amavunja ari indwara irandura byoroshye ariko ishobora kwirindwa no kuvurwa hakiri kare. Kugira ngo haboneke ibisubizo byiza, bisaba ubufatanye bw’abaturage, abaganga n’abashakashatsi mu guhangana n’ibihe by’amavunja byandura mu buryo bwihuse.
