July
In usual years, it’s unpleasant rainy season now but it seems it’s over already and is getting hotter each day. Heat stroke used to be seldom appears in this season, though, many people who don’t get used to high temperature get sick with it already. If our rainy season is over actually, we might have water shortage and might be in difficulty of agriculture.
Infectious disease spreading is mostly gastroenteritis, erythema infectiosum ( apple disease ) is gaining. Gastroenteritis has 2 types, one is bacterial other is viral, it’s easy to be infected with both types because our physical strength is weakened by sudden hot weather.
As I reported last month, you can’t defense your self from contraction when a rash has appeared on patient who already infected with erythema infectiosum. However, once infected, you will not be infected again all life.
Public burden of medicine might increase from now. They try to make increasing the out-of-pocket costs of medicines for decreasing a source of revenue of medical expenses. My opinion is they have to solve the money problems by a system, not by useless matter, specially life matter. I watch the election which will hold this month.
Heat countermeasures are well established for individuals, but difficult for groups. Groups have an accident and an incident under the blazing sun. We have to consider what we can do to avoid these things.
After 3 weeks, students will have summer holidays. Have good days with good rest and food.
