Prevention of African Sleeping Sickness
There is no "one treatment fits all" nor is there a "one pill cures all" approach to Chinese medicine. Each person’s situation is as unique and as dynamic as they, themselves, are. Therefore, with each visit the patient is assessed and treated according to the syndrome differentiation. Your herbal formula will always be prescribed based on your own syndromes so as to suit the remedy to the case. At TCM Window, we offer relaxing treatments and expert guidance through the whole process. We specialize in different kinds of chronic and difficult miscellaneous diseases, we offer the best possible care in a peaceful and welcoming environment.
In the early 21st century the majority of sleeping sickness cases occurred in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which reported about 1,000 new cases each year. By 2015, with the exception of the DRC, most other African countries had reported fewer than 100 cases annually, and many others had not reported a case in more than a decade. The dramatic decline in sleeping sickness cases was attributed to intensive control efforts, which included the isolation and proper treatment of all infected persons (including large numbers of asymptomatic chronic carriers) and the protection of humans from bites of tsetse flies by using insecticides and by maintaining extensive clearings around villages and residence compounds. Regular screening of communities in areas where tsetse flies are endemic and the culling of wild animal reservoirs, as well as personal approaches such as the use of insect repellent and the wearing of long-sleeved shirts and pants, have also helped reduce the number of cases of sleeping sickness.

Historically, epidemics of West African sleeping sickness were controlled in part through the administration of prophylactic doses of pentamidine to village populations. The destruction of wild animals that served as host reservoirs for the parasites was also carried out, particularly in East Africa; the approach helped reduce tsetse fly populations, though neither the flies nor the disease were successfully exterminated.
