In other words, in the summer of Datuao, the temperature is called a rising temperature.
As soon as the weather is hot, a large number of species begin to "get ready to move".
One of the species, humans, moves towards cool waters or forests.
And the other kind of species, which are moving towards humans, are --
Mosquitoes.

Dylan's mother said,
The situation was so serious that she was even ready for her son's funeral.
"In March of this year, I was already planning for the funeral of my 21-year-old son. ”
Dylan told the media:
"I'd heard about these viruses before, but I didn't take them seriously at the time.
I thought it was just another mosquito bite. ”
But the truth is,
Once these viruses have flare-ups, the mortality rate is extremely high.
It can be said that Dylan was unlucky, but also lucky.
After four months of treatment, Dylan's condition was finally relieved in September.
But the road ahead is still "difficult" for the family.

Dylan now relies on assistive devices such as wheelchairs, walkers, shower chairs, and toilet chairs to maintain daily mobility.
He is gradually rebuilding his life and relearning Xi important skills.
His memory was hit hard due to the impact of the virus,
It also affected his balance, fine motor skills, and language skills.
Dylan says:
"It was really frustrating because I used to be able to do everything on my own. ”
He said his goal for 2024 is to get back to work.
So far, he's been able to get some work done every week that doesn't take much time.
Or even start fishing again.

lest others go through the terrible ordeal he went through.
He said:
"I want everyone to know that this virus can be deadly,
So what we can do is get vaccinated and take steps to protect ourselves.
I was unlucky, but I was also very determined to defeat it. ”

Australian health officials said there were recent signs that
This deadly mosquito-borne virus is spreading across Australia.
Cases of Murray Valley encephalitis have been recorded at state health facilities from Queensland to Western Australia.
It is a rare but dangerous disease,
It can lead to death or permanent nerve damage, such as paralysis and brain damage.

Don't leave the vaccine behind, don't forget the protection you should do, and always protect yourself.
