Measles Outbreak Investigation in Nomadic Population Nasirabad, Balochistan, Pakistan February 2018. Global Biosecurity, 2020; 1(4). RESEARCH ARTICLES Measles Outbreak Investigation in Nomadic Population Nasirabad, Balochistan, Pakistan February 2018 Zubair Ahmed1, Abid Saeed1, Ehsan Ahmed1, Qurat ul Ain1, Barkat Hussain2, Saher Sultan2, Khair Muhammad1, Tamken Ghafoor1 & Mirza Amir Baig1 1 FELTP, 2 Government Abstract Introduction: On 14 February 2018, the District Health Officer of Nasirabad reported 16 suspected measles cases from the nomadic population of Dera Murad Jamali to the disease surveillance and response unit of Quetta and requested an investigation. A FELTP fellow was deputed by the Director of General Health Services, Balochistan to investigate the outbreak, evaluate risk factors and recommend control measures. Methodology: A purposive sampling technique was adopted and a case control study was planned and conducted. Case was defined as “acute onset of generalized maculopapular rash and fever with cough or coryza or conjunctivitis from 29 January to 20 February 2018 in a resident of Dera Murad Jamali”. Active case searches along with interviews were conducted through a semi structured questionnaire. Demographic, socioeconomic, clinical and epidemiological information was collected along with assessment of routine immunization. Five blood samples were sent for serology. Results: A total of 49 cases (AR= 0.17%), including five deaths (CFR=10.2%), were identified. Males, 61% (n=30), were more affected. The median age was three years (age range=1-10 years). The age-group 0-4 years, 69% (n=34), was most affected. The median age group of controls were four years (age range 1-11 years). Of the cases, 71% were unimmunized for any routine antigen while 32% of controls were unimmunized. Pneumonia, 42.8% (n=21), and diarrhea, 38.7% (n=19), were the most common complications. All five samples were positive for measles IgM. Significant statistical association was found between nomadic populations having zero routine doses of measles containing vaccines (MCV1) (OR 2.85; CI 1.83 – 4.42; p value <0.0021) and developing measles. Conclusion: Nomadic populations with low immunization was a probable cause of outbreak, resulting in the rapid spread of measles amongst susceptible individuals in the community. Laboratory tests confirmed the outbreak. As a control measure, measles mop-up vaccinations and six health education sessions were suggested and carried out. It was also recommended that proper outreach microplanning and regular pulse immunization should be adopted in future.

  • Pakistan Floods Situation Report # 4
    Pakistan Floods Situation Report # 4 Saturday 7 July 2007 Highlights • Another weather system is developing in the Bay of Bengal and moving in North West direction from India that would bring in moderate to heavy rains within the next 3-4 days in the upper Punjab and Kashmir region. The overall situation of dams and reservoirs remains under control. • Flood waters are moving southward, lowering the water levels in some areas by resulting in damage to those downstream in districts Dadu and Kambar of Sindh province. • A joint cross-sectoral assessment of the affected areas is being undertaken by the NDMA with the assistance of UN agencies and NGO partners. Preliminary assessment results are expected to be available by Thursday July 12. • The Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Cell has created an email address for coordination with health partners: [email protected] Summary Cyclone Yemyin in Baluchistan • In District Gwadar the most severely affected areas are Pasni and Ormara tehsils. Pasni is affected throughout while Ormara has six union councils badly affected. Many people are still stuck in flood areas. • In Chaghai, one of the largest districts in Pakistan, there is still no access to the affected areas and therefore there is no reliable estimate of the damages and relief requirements. • In district Khuzdar 25 dead bodies have been recovered and 120 persons are still missing. Rescue operations are being carried out by Frontier Constabulary and local communities. • Naushki town was cut off from Quetta for three days as the bridge connecting Naushki with Quetta and other parts of Chaghai district was submerged in flood water.
