Question

A 1.5-year-old baby has viral encephalitis. After discontinuing medication, the baby undergoes brain-nourishing treatment, but no EEG or CT scan has been done. How can early treatment be carried out to prevent sequelae? How can viral encephalitis infection be prevented?

Answer

Viral encephalitis is commonly transmitted by mosquitoes, and the most effective way to prevent it is to eliminate mosquitoes and prevent bites. It is recommended to install screens on doors and windows, use mosquito nets or mosquito incense when sleeping, and avoid letting children sleep outdoors at night to reduce the risk of infection.
