The virus has spread widely and rapidly, causing a significant surge in cases in China.
"We urge the public to maintain their health by adopting clean and healthy living habits. This is crucial to strengthen the immune system and prevent the transmission of various viruses that may pose a health threat," said Drg. Widyawati, MKM, Spokesperson for the Ministry of Health of Indonesia.
This virus can cause respiratory tract infections with symptoms similar to the common flu, such as coughing, runny nose, fever, and shortness of breath. In severe cases, it can lead to complications such as bronchitis or pneumonia.
The virus is generally not dangerous for healthy adults but poses a higher risk for children, the elderly, individuals with weakened immune systems, and those with chronic conditions like diabetes, respiratory disorders, or heart disease.
As of now, there is no vaccine or specific treatment for HMPV. However, supportive care such as rehydration, fever management, and adequate rest is effective in alleviating symptoms.
