📢 水痘防治公告

水痘為突發性全身性疾病，具高度傳染性，敬請全校教職員工生提高警覺，並確實配合防疫措施。
為維護校園安全、防止疫情擴散，確診者禁止到校上班或上課，請務必遵守。

一、症狀說明

水痘潛伏期結束後，在出疹前 1–2 天，可能出現以下初期症狀：
• 輕微發燒（約37.5–39℃）
• 倦怠、食慾不振
• 頭痛、肌肉痠痛、關節痠痛

之後皮膚會出現紅疹，進一步發展為紅色丘疹、水泡、膿泡，最終結痂痊癒。水泡常由臉部、頭皮擴散至軀幹及四肢，整體病程約持續 2–4 週。

二、傳染力強

同住家人間的傳染率高達 85%以上。

三、好發季節

多見於冬季與早春。

四、傳播途徑

• 飛沫傳染、空氣傳播
• 與病患皮膚直接接觸
• 接觸帶狀疱疹患者水泡亦可感染
• 接觸污染物品亦可能間接傳染
🔸痂皮不具傳染力

五、潛伏期

約為 10–21 天，其中接觸後第 14–16 天為發病高峰期。

六、具傳染期

• 自出疹前 1–2 天起即具傳染性
• 直到所有病灶完全結痂才不具傳染力
• 出疹前為傳染力最高時期

七、感受性與再感染

• 未曾感染者皆具感受性
• 再次感染機率低
• 初次感染後，病毒可能潛伏於體內，未來可能以帶狀疱疹形式復發

八、預防方式

• 接種疫苗：水痘疫苗為活性減毒疫苗，約95%接種者可產生抗體，保護力可持續至少7年
• 即使感染，症狀通常也較輕微
• 建議無免疫力者經醫師評估後接種
• 若出現疑似症狀，應配戴口罩、穿著長袖衣褲，儘速就醫
• 經確診後，應停止上課或上班，並配合醫囑進行健康管理
• 病灶完全結痂、無傳染力，並取得醫師診斷證明後，方可返校

九、接觸者注意事項

• 接觸者應加強個人與環境衛生，勤洗手並進行自主健康監測，觀察期為最後接觸日起 21 天
• 觀察期間可正常上課上班
• 若出現疑似症狀，應立即配戴口罩、穿長袖衣褲並就醫

🔹暴露後預防措施：
• 無水痘抗體者可於暴露後 72 小時內接種疫苗
• 最遲於5天內接種仍有約7成保護力
• 即使超過5天接種，亦可提供後續防護
• 接種前應由醫師評估，確認無禁忌症

📢 Chickenpox Prevention Notice

Chickenpox is an acute, highly contagious disease that affects the entire body. All faculty, staff, and students are urged to stay alert and cooperate fully with preventive measures.

To maintain campus safety and prevent the spread of infection, confirmed cases are strictly prohibited from attending work or classes on campus. Please adhere to this guideline.

1. Symptoms

After the incubation period, early symptoms may appear 1–2 days before the rash, including:
• Mild fever (approximately 37.5–39°C)
• Fatigue, loss of appetite
• Headache, muscle and joint pain

Soon after, a rash appears and progresses to red bumps, blisters, and pustules, eventually forming scabs and healing. The rash typically starts on the face and scalp and spreads to the trunk and limbs. Recovery usually occurs within 2–4 weeks.

2. High Infectivity

The transmission rate among household members exceeds 85%.

3. Peak Seasons

Chickenpox most commonly occurs in winter and early spring.

4. Modes of Transmission

• Through droplets, airborne particles
• Direct contact with infected skin
• Contact with fluid from shingles blisters
• Indirect transmission via contaminated objects
🔸Scabs are not infectious

5. Incubation Period

Typically 10–21 days, with most cases occurring 14–16 days after exposure.

6. Infectious Period

• Begins 1–2 days before the rash appears
• Ends only when all lesions have completely scabbed over
• The most contagious period is before the rash appears

7. Susceptibility and Reinfection

• Individuals who have never been infected are susceptible
• Reinfection is rare
• After initial infection, the virus may remain dormant and reappear later as shingles (herpes zoster)

8. Prevention

• Vaccination: The chickenpox vaccine is a live attenuated vaccine; about 95% of recipients develop antibodies, with protection lasting at least 7 years
• If vaccinated individuals contract chickenpox, symptoms are usually mild
• Individuals without immunity are advised to get vaccinated after medical evaluation
• If symptoms develop, wear a mask and long-sleeved clothing and seek medical attention promptly
• Confirmed cases should refrain from attending class or work and follow medical advice for recovery
• Return to campus only after full scabbing, no infectivity, and a medical certificate has been issued

9. Guidance for Close Contacts

• Maintain good personal and environmental hygiene, wash hands frequently, and monitor health for 21 days after the last contact
• You may continue attending class or work during the observation period
• If symptoms appear, wear a mask, long sleeves, and seek medical care promptly

🔹Post-exposure Prophylaxis:
• Individuals without chickenpox antibodies may receive the vaccine within 72 hours of exposure
• Vaccination within 5 days still provides ~70% protection
• Even after 5 days, vaccination may still offer protection
• A medical evaluation is required before vaccination to rule out contraindications
