Celebrity DJ Push Discusses Children's Respiratory Illnesses Amid Seasonal Outbreak
Thai celebrity DJ Push has shared his experience managing his children's recent respiratory infections, highlighting the prevalence of viruses in schools during the rainy season.
According to a report by Khaosod Online, Thai celebrity DJ Push (Puttichai Kasetsin) recently spoke about the challenges of caring for his young children, PJ and PJ-Pearl, who have been suffering from respiratory illnesses. DJ Push noted that his son, PJ, had recently recovered from an hMPV infection only to contract RSV shortly after, with his daughter, PJ-Pearl, also becoming infected.
Speaking at an event at Central Pinklao, the father expressed the emotional difficulty of seeing his children unwell. He praised his wife, Warattaya 'Jui' Nilkuha, for her dedicated care during this period. DJ Push emphasized the importance of parents keeping children home from school until they have fully recovered to prevent the spread of viruses to other students, noting that the rainy season has led to a significant rise in respiratory infections within school environments.
For residents and travelers in Thailand, this serves as a reminder that the rainy season is a peak period for respiratory viruses like RSV and hMPV, particularly in settings where children congregate. While the family is managing the situation, it underscores the necessity of maintaining hygiene and monitoring health closely during this time of year. Specific details regarding the children's current recovery status beyond the initial report remain to be confirmed.
