Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan are actively monitoring respiratory viruses, including human metapneumovirus (HMPV), as part of their efforts to control severe acute respiratory infections (SARI). Health officials in both nations are urging preventative measures to curb the spread of illnesses.
Kyrgyzstan's Ministry of Health is conducting surveillance on severe acute respiratory infections (SARI), testing samples for pathogens like influenza, COVID-19, and human metapneumovirus (HMPV), according to Kazinform News Agency. Since October 2024, 1,144 samples have been analysed, with 2 cases of HMPV detected, alongside other viruses such as rhinovirus (210 cases) and RSV (259 cases).
In neighbouring Kazakhstan, 8,360 samples have been tested for non-influenza respiratory viruses this season, with 30 cases of HMPV reported. The country has recorded over 2 million ARVI cases and nearly 1,000 confirmed flu cases since October, with 21,089 flu cases in West Kazakhstan alone.
HMPV, an RNA virus causing respiratory infections, poses higher risks to children and the elderly. It spreads via airborne droplets or contact with contaminated surfaces, with symptoms ranging from mild cold-like signs to severe pneumonia.
Health officials in both countries urge precautions such as avoiding crowded places, practising good hygiene, and seeking medical care for severe symptoms to limit the spread of respiratory illnesses.
