YAWS ERADICATION PROGRAMME Introduction •
Yaws is a disfiguring and debilitating non-venereal disease. It is a highly infectious disease transmitted by direct (person-to-person) contact. Skin shows early lesions, which on healing show little scarring. Disease can be progressive involving bone and cartilage and causing disability. Yaw does not have extra human reservoir of infection and can be cured by single injection of long acting penicillin (Benzathin Benzyl). Yaws occur in remote, hilly and forest areas that have limited acceptability to health care services. Cases of Yaws have been reported from 27 districts in 9 states (Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, Tamil Nadu, and Uttar Pradesh). Clinical Features
•
a) Primary/ early stage – Primary sore (mother yems) appears as a large papule, about 6 cm in diameter, or as a vesicle on the knee or near the mouth. The scabs becomes macule and later a papilloma. Infective serous fluid exudes from the lesion.
•
b) Secondary Stage – After 6-8 weeks rashes resemble a raspberrry “framboesia” develop. They fall off without pain. Periosteum and bone may be involved.
•
c) Tertiary or later stage – It occurs after about 5 years or more and is characterized by gummatous lesion near bones and joints. Gondou, a swelling by the side of nasal bridge and gandosa ulcerative lesion on palate are two special form of the stage. Treatment
•
Benzathin penicillin G is the drug of choice in a dose of 1.2 million units for all cases and contacts, and half that dose (0.6 million units) for children under 10 years of age. In pencillin sensitive cases, erythromycin or tetracycline is used in recommended doses for a period of 15 days.
•
The WHO recommended 3 modes of treatments: 1. Total mass treatment: In areas where yaws is hyperendemic (>10% prevalence of clinically active yaws) treatment is given to all irrespective of disease status of person. 2. Juvenile Mass Treatment: In mesoendemic communities 6% - 10% prevalence), treatment is given to all cases and to all children under 15 years of age and other obvious contacts of infectious cases. 3. Selective Mass Treatment: In hypoendemic (
