A CLINICAL CASE OF TULAREMIA IN THE EAST KAZAKHSTAN REGION
Tularemia is a widespread natural focal infection. In children, it is a significant problem in endemic areas such as North America, Europe, Asia and, in particular, Kazakhstan [18]. In Kazakhstan, children are particularly vulnerable due to frequent contact with the natural environment and animals, which increases the risk of infection. Most clinical cases are devoted to tularemia in adults. Meanwhile, according to various authors, children account for up to 20% of the cases [7,17,14]. The highest incidence is noted among children aged 5-10 years of life. The disease can manifest itself in various forms, which makes diagnosis difficult and increases the risk of complications. The absence of specific symptoms and similarity to other infections often leads to a delay in diagnosis and initiation of treatment. Timely antibacterial therapy and preventive measures are key to reducing morbidity and improving prognosis in children in Kazakhstan. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a clinical case in the city of Ust-Kamenogorsk.
