By Desilon DanielsA year after Guyana recorded its first confirmed cases of the Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), the virus has seemingly slipped into the shadows.For months, CHIKV made headlines in Guyana as the illness gripped large sections of the country.Dr. Reyaud Rahman, Director of the Vector Control ServicesThroughout the nation, countless persons complained of severe body pains, fevers and headaches; children were kept from school for days while employers were forced to deal with workers calling in sick.It seemed like there was no end to the epidemic and each day,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, more reports of the virus surfaced across all of Guyana.However,Cheap Jerseys USA, something interesting happened; after months of dominating Guyana, the CHIKV virus faded into a memory. Not much has been heard of the virus recently, thus raising the obvious question, “Where did Chikungunya go?”Though the virus has seemingly disappeared, Director of the Vector Control Services, Dr. Reyaud Rahman, indicated that this was not necessarily so.According to Rahman, the vector-borne virus is still around but in much smaller numbers.Dr. Rahman said that significant progress had been made in getting the virus under control. He explained that reports of the virus are coming in less frequently, a shift he largely attributed to increased awareness of the virus.“What I would say, is that we’re not having as many cases. One of the reasons why the virus isn’t being seen as much, is that, people understand the disease a bit more and they know what they have to do. A lot of persons aren’t just turning up at the hospital anymore; they are treating themselvesThe CHIKV virus is known to cause a number of symptoms including a rashconservatively,Cheap Jerseys Wholesale,” he said.He continued,Nike Air Max 2018, “Based on that I would say, yes, the virus is under control and the public is more informed and educated so they’re actually helping themselves a lot more.”Dr. Rahman further said that only about one or two cases are now being reported per month. “Sometimes even fewer than that; sometimes there’s none for the month,” he added.This is a far cry from when the virus was at its peak; then, no fewer than five to eight cases were reported per week, taking the total to at least 20 per month.He estimated that currently there are over 100 confirmed cases from samples that were sent off to the Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) in Trinidad. Over 200 samples had been sent to the health institute.Outside of the confirmed cases, Dr. Rahman said that there are a “couple thousand” suspected cases.“Basically, we had a couple of thousand suspected cases, but right now we’re not having huge complaints about Chikungunya,” Dr. Rahman said.These figures do not take into account the countless persons who do not report their symptoms.The VCS Director also said that Region Six recorded the majority of these cases while pocketed parts of Georgetown were also affected. “But other than that, it came from a good spread around the country,NFL Jerseys From China,” he said.He added that he was unaware of any reported cases of Chikungunya deaths.Meanwhile, Dr. Rahman said the VCS will continue to approach the CHIKV cautiously and will upkeep the necessary surveillance work.“We are always on alert and we are pretty much doing what we do on our day to day activities, and we are looking out for any complaints which the public may have,” the director said.Other Caribbean countries have similarly reported reduced Chikungunya cases. In fact, a year after the virus was first confirmed in Dominica and subsequently infected at least 3,000 persons, the island declared the CHIKV epidemic over.Guidelines by the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommend that an epidemic can be declared over after two maximum incubation periods have passed without a new case being reported.Guyana’s first cases of CHIKV were confirmed in May 2014 after 30 samples were sent to CARPHA for testing. The cases were of a toddler and a woman, both from the Region Six area.

By Keeran DannyReconstruction of the Georgetown sewer network is expected to commence next month with the installation of force main pipelines, delivery mains, pumps and motors at sewer stations. Installation of the force main pipelines would require closure and excavation of roadways: Waterloo, Light,jerseys from china, Sussex, and New Market Streets.According to Arshad Yacoub, Senior Engineer, Capital Investment and Planning Department of Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) during a recent interview with this publication, “The system as it is right now is very fragile; you have blow-outs, burst mains, and so on. GWI’s Operations Department has to attend to those on a regular basis.”The US$10M Georgetown Sanitation Improvement Programme is being funded by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and has four components. This component is about 70 percent of the project cost.According to Yacoub, the project commenced in January 2013 and the contractor has completed installing about three kilometres of delivery mains and 18 pumps in six sewer stations. Works have not yet commenced on the force mains. Of the six kilometers of force main pipelines to be laid, only two kilometres would be done for 2013.Arshad Yacoub,NFL Jerseys Outlet, Senior Engineer, GWI“The force mains form a rectangle: in the east the force main is on Light Street, west on Waterloo Street, north New Market Street,Cheap Soccer Jerseys, and to the south Sussex Street. The delivery mains connect like branches to the force main,” he explained.During the first phase of component one, there was hardly excavation to roadways because works were being done to sewer stations and not pipelines. In this phase, GWI is reconstructing the entire network.“So, the excavated areas for the force mains are in the rectangle and the other areas for the delivery mains would be like Hadfield Street, Quamina Street,Cheap MLB Jerseys China, Barrack Street, Sussex and Princes Streets, etc.,” he added.According to Yacoub, there are 24 sewer stations in Georgetown, and in 2009, 15 of the most critical stations were rehabilitated. As such, GWI will only be focusing on nine under this programme.“But for the 15 that were rehabilitated previously, we have to put in the additional pumps and motors in the sewer stations, because we want to have two pumps in one station. One would be in operation while the other one would not be in use. So in the event the on-duty one is clogged or cannot function,Cheap Jerseys From China Online, we have the other pump to use,” he stated.He said GWI would be sending out advisories on a regular basis prior to construction to alert road users which streets would be closed and the alternative routes. The contractor would only need a small section of the roadways to install delivery mains. However, when the placements of the force mains occur, roadways will be closed.While the first component of the project seeks to physically strengthen the network, the second component deals with institutional strengthening of GWI and public awareness.According to the engineer, the network is fragile, and because of the large amount of foreign particles entering the system, the submersible pumps in the station are clogged very often.“We don’t have treated sewage going to these stations and hotel and restaurant owners are abusing the system as well by not having grease traps, so all the cooked fats and residue are going into the sewer system and blocking up the main,” he said.Yacoub said component two has three sub-components: asset management development strategy; seminars for hotel and restaurant owners; and school awareness campaign focusing on sanitation hygiene and proper usage of the sewage network. GWI has hired a consultant to assist in improving the operations and effectiveness of assets such as new pumps and motors.
