Riaan Abantu abadala abaningi abaneminyaka engu-40 nangaphezulu bayakhetha yeqa ukugoma naphezu kokukhathazeka kwabo okujwayelekile mayelana nokutheleleka ngegciwane, njengoba kwembulwe ocwaningweni i-AARP esanda kuyishicilela.
Kubo bonke abantu abadala abangakawutholanga umuthi wokugomela umkhuhlane, bangama-32% kuphela abathi bazowuthola lo mgomo ngisho noma udokotela wabo ebacelile ukuthi benze njalo.
Kulabo abebengawutholi umuthi wokugomela inyumoniya, bangama-49% kuphela abebewuthola uma udokotela wabo encoma.
Ngomuthi wokugomela ama-shingles, ama-56% abantu abadala abangagonyiwe angathola i-jab ngokweseluleko sikadokotela wabo.
Ucwaningo, olwenziwe egameni le-AARP ngu-Alan Newman Market Research Consultants (ANR), luqoqe idatha kusuka kuhlolo lwe-inthanethi oluthunyelwe kubantu abadala base-US abangu-1,546 phakathi komhla ka-Oct. 3, 2022, no-Oct. 12, 2022.

Iphinde yathola ukuthi ngaphansi kwesigamu sabantu abadala abangagonyiwe bazothola imigomo ye-pertussis, i-hepatitis, i-monkeypox, i-tetanus, ingxibongo kanye ne-diphtheria uma kunconywa umhlinzeki wezempilo.
Abantu abadala abamnyama bakhombise ukuzimisela okwengeziwe ukuthola imigomo
Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi u-46% wabantu abadala abamnyama abaneminyaka engaphezu kuka-40 bangathola umuthi wokugomela umkhuhlane uma udokotela wabo ewuncoma.
Isabelo sikhuphuke safinyelela ku-63% ngenxa ye-pneumonia kanye nama-66% kuma-shingles.
UKUNGALALI KUNGEHLISA AMA-ANTIBODIE OMGOMO, KUTHOLAKALA UCWANINGO OLUSHA
Ngaphezu kwesigamu sabaphenduli Abamnyama abangagonyiwe bazothola imithi yokugomela i-pertussis, i-hepatitis, i-monkeypox, i-tetanus, ingxibongo kanye ne-diphtheria uma kunconywa umhlinzeki wezempilo, ucwaningo luphinde lwathola.
Abaningi besaba ukugula ngemithi yokugoma
Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi phakathi i-midlife kanye nabantu abadala abadalaisizathu esivame kakhulu sokungawutholi umuthi wokugomela umkhuhlane kwakuwukwesaba ukugula ngenxa yokudutshulwa, okucashunwe ama-34% abaphendulile.
Abanye abantu abangama-29% bavele bathi abakholwa ukuthi umgomo uyadingeka.
Kulabo abangahlelile ukuthola umuthi wokugomela inyumoniya, u-26% uthe abawudingi kanti u-25% ukhathazekile ngokugula.
Phakathi kwempilo emaphakathi kanye nabantu abadala, isizathu esivame kakhulu sokungawutholi umuthi wokugomela umkhuhlane kwakuwukwesaba ukugula ngenxa yokudutshulwa. (iStock)
Kulabo abangawutholi umgomo we-shingles, u-27% uthe awudingeki kanti u-22% awucabangi ukuthi uzolithola leli gciwane.
“Ngikholelwa ekwelapheni kwemvelo kanye nokwelashwa kwe-homeopathic futhi ngithemba ukuthi amasosha omzimba ami, ngokusekelwa yilezi zindlela zokwelapha, uzongigcina ngiphililefuthi ngeke ngiphuze imithi,” kusho owesifazane oneminyaka engu-57 ocashunwe embikweni we-AARP.
“Ngiyethemba ukuthi amasosha ami azongigcina ngiphilile, futhi ngeke ngidle imishanguzo yemithi.”
Nokho, ukungabaza kokugoma kwabantu abadala akusho ukuthi abakhathazekile ngokugula.
Amaphesenti angamashumi amahlanu nesishiyagalombili abaphendulile kunhlolovo athe anjalo ekhathazekile ngomkhuhlaneu-53% ukhathazekile ngokungenwa yinyumoniya, u-49% ukhathazekile nge-shingles kanti u-43% uzwakalise ukukhathazeka ngemonkeypox.
Ukwesaba imiphumela emibi, ukuqeda ukwethembana kuyizici
UDkt. Dung Trinh, uchwepheshe wezokwelapha wangaphakathi futhi ongumnikazi nomsunguli we-Healthy Brain Clinic eLong Beach, eCaliforniaakazange abandakanywe ocwaningweni olusha kodwa waveza izizathu ezimbalwa ezibalulekile iziguli zenqaba imithi yokugoma.

“Abantu abadala asebekhulile bangase besabe imiphumela emibi noma ukusabela okungekuhle okuvela emuthini wokugoma ngenxa yeminyaka yabo nesimo sempilo,” etshela iFox News Digital ku-imeyili.
“Bangase babe sengozini yokuthola izinkinga ezinjengomkhuhlane, ubuhlungu bemisipha kanye nesiyezi ngemva kokugonywa,” esho. “Ngaphezu kwalokho, bangase babe nezimo ezikhona ngaphambili ezingabenza babe sengozini yemiphumela emibi kakhulu.”
“Abantu abadala asebekhulile bangase besabe imiphumela engemihle noma ukusabela okungekuhle okuvela emuthini wokugoma.”
Bangase futhi babe nomuzwa wokuthi abadingi ukuthola umgomo ngoba vele bawutholile esikhathini esidlule noma ngenxa yokuthi bake bachayeka egciwaneni futhi bazakhela ukuzivikela, kwengeza udokotela.

Kukhona nezizathu zokuhleleka, njengobunzima bokwenza isikhathi sokuthola umgomo.
“Kwabanye, izinto zokuhamba zomphakathi zingase zingabi yindlela yokuzikhethela, futhi bangase bangakwazi ukuthola ukugibela okuthembekile,” kusho uDkt. “Bangase futhi bahlangabezane nobunzima ngenxa yemingcele yolimi noma ukungajwayeli inqubo yokubhuka.”
Ukukhathazeka ngokwezimali nokuntuleka komshwalense wezempilo kungaba esinye isithiyo.

Abantu abadala asebekhulile bangase bakhathazeke hhayi kuphela ngezindleko zemithi yokugoma, kodwa nanoma yikuphi ukuvakasha kodokotela okuhlobene, kusho uDkt. Trinh.
“Kubalulekile ukuthi laba bantu bazi ukuthi yiziphi izinsiza ezitholakala kubo nokuthi banikezwe ukwesekwa okwanele ukuze bathole umgomo uma befisa,” usho kanje.
“Ukungabaza ukugonywa kubangelwa kakhulu ukungabethembi isikhungo sezokwelapha.”
Okokugcina, abantu abadala asebekhulile bangase babe nokuntula ukwethemba ukuphepha nokusebenza kahle kwemithi yokugoma kanye nomphakathi wezokwelapha uwonke.

UDkt. Marc Siegel, uprofesa wezokwelapha e- I-NYU Langone Medical Center kanye nomnikeli wezokwelapha we-Fox News, uthe ukholelwa ukuthi ukungabaza ukugonywa kubangelwa kakhulu ukungathembani isikhungo sezokwelapha phakathi kwamaLatinos nabanye abantu abambalwa, kanye nolwazi oludidayo olulethwa ngenjongo yokugoma.

“Umbiko uthi emphakathini wase-Afrika yaseMelika, iningi liyabethemba odokotela babo, okusho ukuthi kunesidingo esikhulu kakhulu sokuthi odokotela bagcwalise leyo ndima futhi bachaze ubungozi nezinzuzo,” etshela iFox News Digital.

“Ngeshwa, nge Imigomo ye-covidiningi lamashothi anikezwa izindawo ezimaphakathi namakhemisi, hhayi odokotela abanakekela abaphansi, okusize ekuqedeni ukwethembana,” kuphawula uDkt. Siegel.
