# Mpox in Burundi: A Wake-Up Call for Ethiopia?
The mpox outbreak in Burundi offers a sobering glimpse into the challenges of managing a viral disease, especially in a resource-limited setting. It also serves as a stark reminder for Ethiopia to strengthen its preparedness for potential outbreaks.
The Reality on the Ground:
โข "It was so painful I couldnโt sleep." - Egide Irambona, a mpox patient, describes the excruciating pain he experienced from swollen lymph nodes.
โข "I am worried about the numbers. If they keep increasing, there is no capacity for us to handle that." - Dr. Odette Nsavyimana, doctor in charge at the King Khaled University Hospital, expresses concern over the overwhelming number of patients and limited resources.
โข "Many people do not understand the gravity of this issue. Even where there have been cases, people still just mingle." - Dr. Liliane Nkengurutse, national director for the Centre for Public Health Emergency Operations, highlights the challenge of limited public awareness and the need for increased education.
Lessons for Ethiopia:
โข Invest in Public Health Infrastructure: The lack of testing facilities, kits, and vaccines in Burundi highlights the need for Ethiopia to invest in its public health infrastructure to be better prepared.
โข Promote Public Awareness: The limited understanding of the risks and transmission of mpox in Burundi emphasizes the importance of proactive public health campaigns to educate citizens and promote preventive measures.
โข Ensure Access to Clean Water and Sanitation: Limited water access in Burundi makes maintaining hygiene practices difficult. Ethiopia should prioritize access to clean water and sanitation facilities for all.
The mpox outbreak in Burundi is a stark reminder that preparedness is crucial. Let's learn from this situation and strengthen our public health systems in Ethiopia to ensure we are ready to face future challenges.

"Doctor,๐ฅฉ I Really Love Red Meat - What's the Deal? Is red meat really bad for me?"
This is a question many people have, and it's one that recent research has brought to the forefront. While red meat can be part of a healthy diet, studies have sparked discussions about the potential link between red meat consumption and health risks, particularly type 2 diabetes.
Here's what's known so far:
โข Possible Link, Not Proven Cause: Research suggests that eating large amounts of red meat might be associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. However, it doesn't definitively prove that red meat causes the condition.
โข Other Factors at Play: Overall diet, lifestyle choices, and genetics likely play a significant role in developing type 2 diabetes.
โข Not Just Red Meat: Processed meats, like sausages and bacon, are also linked to potential health concerns.
What Can You Do?
โข Moderation is Key: While you don't need to completely eliminate red meat, limiting your intake is generally recommended as part of a healthy diet.
โข Variety is the Spice of Life: Incorporate a diverse range of foods, including plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein sources. ๐๐ฅ๐พ๐
โข Stay Informed: Continue to stay informed about ongoing research and consult with your doctor for personalized advice.
Remember: The key is to make informed choices about your diet and prioritize overall health and well-being. ๐

โข Muscle aches
โข Backache
โข Swollen lymph nodes
โข Rash: starts on face, spreads. Goes through stages (macules, papules, vesicles, pustules, scabs)
Who's at risk?
Anyone can get it, but more common in:
โข Close contact with infected people or animals
