May
Spring has come finally in early April, birds started singing in the fields and swallow started nesting at my house same as usual years. However, because of a big temperature difference between day and evening, that’s almost 10℃ , many people lost their health.
There were many patients who were suffered from infectious gastroenteritis, specially got it by norovirus.
In Shizuoka area, whooping cough didn’t spread as that much as press announced, instead of that RS virus infection infected a lot among nursery schools. The cause of whooping cough is bacterial infection by Bordetella pertussis and it’s not difficult making diagnose if patients have cough continuing more than 2 weeks and have certain type Respiratory asthma. It’s different from RS virus infection’s treatment taking antibiotic is required to cure whooping cough.
There are still certain number of people infected with influenza and coronavirus, it’s getting to decrease but certain numbers of people infected with coronavirus will stay long.
Allergen of allergic rhinitis is gradually changing from cedar pollen to cypress pollen. However, symptoms caused by yellow dust is similar with hey fever, and when allergic rhinitis’s symptom stays long, consult your doctor about what is the source.
Many schools changed the schedule of their sport day from autumn to mid May, in my opinion it’s not a good idea because our body don’t get use to high temperature at that time. The best thing is make our body get used to high temperature and sweat slowly from May and prepare for summer.
Students are already getting used to a school life and after Golden Week, authentic school life will start. Enjoy it with enough rest and with attentive what you eat.
