UPDATES ON WEATHER AUTHORITY APP AND ON THE RADIO 97.9 KISS FM.
>> THANK YOU, DANIELLE. AS WE
GET DEEPER INTO FALL
DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN SEASON
ILLNESS IN COVID-19 BECOMES
MORE IMPORTANT. NOW ONE OF THE
MORE SERIOUS FALL ILLNESSES
THAT HAS MANY SYMPTOMS IN
COMMON WITH COVID IS RSV. IT’S
A VIRAL RESPIRATORY INFECTION
THAT MOSTLY IMPACTS CHILDREN
YOUNGER THAN 2. SO JOINING US
NOW TO TALK ABOUT THE SIGNS
AND REALLY WHAT TO LOOK OUT
FOR AND WHAT PARENTS SHOULD DO
IS DOCTOR SOME ON SOLEIMANI.
GOOD MORNING, DOCTOR.
SOLEIMANI.
>> GOOD MORNING.
>> WE DID MENTION YOU KNOW,
THE SYMPTOMS ARE SIMILAR. 2
COVID-19. SO WHAT SHOULD WE
LOOK OUT FOR? HOW CAN WE TELL
THE DIFFERENCE?
>> WELL, YOU KNOW, ON HAS THAT
BEEN IN FULL RESPIRATORY IS A
VIRUS THAT OBVIOUSLY BEEN
AROUND FOR A LONG TIME AND AND
ACTS LIKE A COMMON COLD IS A
RESPIRATORY VIRUS. AND SO
BECAUSE OF THAT, MANY OF THE
SYMPTOMS ARE PRETTY MUCH
IDENTICAL TO WHAT FLU OR
COVID-19 WOULD BE. SO FROM
SORE THROAT, COUGH CONGESTION,
ANY OF THOSE RUNNING NOSE ARE
ALL PART OF THE PARAMETERS AND
THE SYMPTOMS THAT COME WITH
OUR NOT TYPICALLY IT DOES
AFFECT CHILDREN YOUNGER 2, BUT
IT ALSO CAN AFFECT ADULTS AND
IT’S MORE SERIOUS SPECIALLY
FOR THAT MAY HAVE A NEW
COMPROMISE SYSTEM MAY HAVE
CHRONIC ASTHMA COPD EMPHYSEMA.
REASONS OF CARDIOVASCULAR
ISSUES THAT WE WOULD DO SO
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM, THOSE CAN
BECOME A SERIOUS CONDITION FOR
CHILDREN YOUNGER THAN 12
MONTHS. IT’S A MUCH MORE
SERIOUS AND WITH THE PRESENCE
OF COVID-19, WE NEED TO KEEP
FACTORIES. IF SOMEBODY IS
COMING DOWN WITH SYMPTOMS, YOU
WANT TO MAKE SURE WITH THE IS
FLU RSV OR COVID-19 AND BOTH
ALMOST 3 CAN BE TESTED IN AN
OFFICE SETTING TO SEE WITH THE
MAY BE SUFFERING FROM THE
COVID-19 OR A BECAUSE
DEPENDING ON WHICH ONE OF
THOSE 3, MAYBE IT KIND OF
CHANGES THE TREATMENT
PARAMETERS.
>> OKAY. SO WHAT ARE SOME OF
THE TREATMENTS AVAILABLE?
>> REASONABLE TO PLEA FOR IT’S
KIND OF LIKE IF YOU HAD TO
PICK OUT OF THE 3, PROBABLY
THE BEST 3, BECAUSE TREATMENTS
ARE SUPPORTING IT. ALSO, ONCE
YOU’VE RULED OUT THAT IT IS
NOT INFLUENZA, NOT COVID-19 TO
WITH OUR SEAS, JUST SUPPORTIVE
CARE. NOW SOMEONE IS WHEEZING.
YOU MAY WANT TO GIVE THEM
STILL TO REDUCE INFLAMMATION
IN THE LUNGS. OBVIOUSLY ANTI
INFLAMMATORY AND TECH ARE
READY DO STUFF EITHER ANY KIND
OF LEADING TREATMENTS FOR
HAVING RESPIRATORY DIFFICULTY,
BUT ALSO IT HAPPENS WITH OUR
CITY OTHER RESPIRATORY VIRUSES
THAT BECAUSE OF THE EFFECTS IT
HAS ON THE IMMUNE SYSTEM AND
UNIONS TRYING TO FIGHT THAT.
IT KIND OF LEAVES THE DOOR
SOMETIMES CAN LEAD TO AN
ACTUAL BACTERIAL RESPIRATORY
INFECTION LIKE PNEUMONIA. AND
IN THOSE CASES, DEPENDING ON
THE PRESENTATION PATIENTS
SOMETIMES AND NOT ASSUME TO BE
TRUE BUT THE SECONDARY
INFECTION THAT MAY COME
BECAUSE OF THAT.
>> AND WE KNOW A LOT OF THESE
RESPIRATORY ILLNESSES, THEY
ALL, YOU KNOW, HAVE SIMILAR
SYMPTOMS. SO WHAT SHOULD A
PARENT DO IF THEY SUSPECT SARS
ARE WHILE BRINGING THEIR CHILD
TO THE DOCTOR? WHAT SHOULD
THEY SAY?
>> YOU KNOW, IT’S VERY MOST
IT’S VERY COMMON FOR PARENTS
TO COME IN CONCERN, ESPECIALLY
GIVEN OUT THE 2 YOU WEARING
MASKS BE IN QUARANTINE. SO WE
KIND OF THE FIRST CONCERN
THESE DAYS IS TO MAKE SURE
THAT THEIR CHILDREN ARE
LEAVING THEMSELVES AND NOT
SUFFERING FROM COVID. IT IS
ONCE AGAIN PASSING THAT ALL
POTENTIALLY TO SOMEONE ELSE
THAT MAY BE ELDERLY OR
IMMUNOCOMPROMISED TO HAVE MORE
DETRIMENTAL OUTCOME. BUT WHEN
THEY COME IN, YOU KNOW, AT
FIRST WE DON’T NECESSARILY
RECOMMEND THAT THE MOMENT
SOMEONE HAS A KNOWS THAT THEY
NEED JUST ONE THING. YOU’RE
STOPPED OR EMERGENCY AH. BUT
IF ANYBODY’S YOU CAN SEE THAT
THEY’RE HAVING DIFFICULTY
BREATHING, IF THEY’RE
COUGHING, IF THERE WAS GREATER
THAN 100 100.5, THOSE ARE WE.
THIS IS FOR THEM TO BE SEEN
AND BE EVALUATED BY A PROVIDER
BY PROVIDER TO SEE PETITION
WHICH ONE OF THE RESPIRATORY
VIRUSES MAY BE OR EVEN BACK
THROUGH OTHER POSSIBLE, RIGHT?
YOU KNOW, ONCE WE TALKING
ABOUT CONDITIONS ABOVE THE
LONG SO MANY OF THE SYMPTOMS
OVERLAP THAT WE TAKE SAYS THE
COMMISSION TO TRY TO HONE DOWN
AN ARROGANT.
>> WHAT THE POTENTIAL CAUSE?
OH, YES, AND ALL STARTED
RIGHT. WE’RE JUST RUNNING OUT
OF TIME HERE. BUT YOU HAVE
SAID SO MUCH IMPACTFUL
INFORMATION TO THE KEEPING AS
TAKE YOUR CHILD TO THE DOCTOR.
RIGHT? AND THANK YOU SO DOCTOR
SOLEIMANI BEEN SO HELPFUL.
