He hand-foot-mouth syndrome It is a disease that is characterized by the appearance of ulcers, headaches, muscle or fever in young children, the cause of the disease is the so-called coxsackie virus that was first identified in the American town of Coxsackie.
It has a moderate contagion and is usually done through contact with hands or surfaces that are contaminated with feces, places where the virus is able to live several days. This is a virus related to the hottest periods, summer and autumn. It seems that it will be necessary to strengthen hygiene education in China, since so far 1,092 cases of this disease have been suffered in children under 5 years of age and as we have mentioned, much has to do with dirt. Washing your hands and complying with the necessary hygienic measures would guarantee a smaller increase in this disease.
Hygiene is essential and more in summer, when infectious foci find an excellent breeding ground to proliferate. We take this opportunity to emphasize hygienic measures that will greatly prevent some health problems. China suffers every year a higher incidence of a disease that sometimes ends the lives of children who suffer from it.
We assume that the policy of the Chinese government will be aimed at strengthening measures and hygiene education, it is the best way to combat a medical condition that especially affects children.
