5 | As the world celebrates World Sickle Cell Day on June 19, awareness of the disease remains low among a large portion of the Tharu indigenous people in Nepal, though many have lost their lives to it. | Raha nankalaza ny Andro Manerantanin'ny Sela Miendrika Antsimbilona izao tontolo izao tamin'ny 19 jona, dia mbola ambany ny fampahafantarana ny aretina ho an'ny ankamaroan'ireo mponina teratany Tharu ao Nepal, na dia maro aza ireo matiny vokatr'io aretina io ao. |

9 | Tharus, the fourth largest group in terms of population in Nepal, have a seven-fold lower prevalence of malaria than non-Tharus. | Tharus, ny vondron'olona fahaefatra betsaka indrindra amin'ny isan'ny mponina ao Nepal, dia manana taha impito latsaka heny amin'ny aretina tazo noho ny tsy-Tharus. |
10 | Tharus have been living in the plains, which were infested with malaria for thousands of years. | Niaina teny amin'ny lemaka ny Tharus, izay toerana feno tazo an'arivony taona. |
11 | Sickle cell has been found to be more prevalent in the malaria-affected areas, and the people with sickle-cell trait have been found to be more resistant to malaria. | Hita ho betsaka kokoa amin'ny toerana anjakan'ny tazomoka ny sela miandrika antsimbilona, ary ireo olona mitondra ny sela miendrika antsimbilona dia hita ho mahatohitra kokoa ny aretina tazo. |

15 | With the vast numbers of people diagnosed with sickle cell it is a surprise that not a lot of people are aware of it #SpeakOnSickleCellObama | Raha mahita ny hamaroan'ny olona mitondra ny sela miendrika antsimbilona dia mahagaga raha tsy dia mahalala ny momba azy io ny olona |
16 | - SickleGirl (@SickledGirl) June 12, 2015 Sickle-cell disease receives its name from the abnormally shaped red blood cells, like a sickle in appearance, that get stuck in the blood vessels. | Ny aretin'ny sela-antsimbilona dia nandray ny anarany avy amin'ny bika hafahafa hita amin'ny sela mena, manana endrika antsimbilona, izay mihandrona ao amin'ny lalandrà. |
17 | The disorder, which is inherited from parents, makes it difficult for the blood vessels to deliver oxygen to the body, causing intense pain and leading to complications like organ damage and stroke at times. | Ny fikorontanana, izay lovaina avy amin'ny ray amandreny, no mametraka fahasarotana ho an'ny lalandrà hamoaka ôksizena ho an'ny vatana, ka miteraka fangirifiriana lalina mbamin'ny fahasimban'ny taova sy fahatapahan'ny lalandrà tsindraindray. |
18 | As the diagnosis and treatment of the disease is very expensive and not available at local health facilities in Nepal, many families have sold their land and properties to get treatment in neighboring India. | Noho ny fahalafosan'ny fizahana sy ny fikarakarana noho ny aretina sy ny tsy fisian'ny toera-pitsaboana azy ao Nepal, dia maro ny fianakaviana no mivaro-pananana sy tany hitsaboana tena ao India. |
19 | Last year, the government of Nepal announced free treatment for sickle-cell anaemia patients. | Tamin'ny herintaona, nanambara ny hitsaboana maimaimpoana ireo mararin'ny sela miendrika antsimbilona [drepanôsitôzy] ny governemantan'i Nepal. |
20 | However, the health facilities don't have the necessary medical equipment and even for the diagnosis, blood samples are sent to India. | Kanefa, tsy manana ny fitaovam-pitsaboana ilaina amin'izany ny toera-pitsaboana eny fa na dia ho amin'ny fizahana hamantarana ny aretina aza dia nalefa any India ny santionan-drà. |
21 | Doctors say awareness is crucial to prevent sickle-cell disease. It is not contagious and people are born with the disorder. | Milaza ny dokotera fa tena iankinan'ny ain-dehibe tokoa ny fampahafantarana ny aretina ho fisorohana ny aretin'ny sela miendrika antsimbilona. |
22 | Since there is a 25 per cent chance that a child will have the disease if both parents carry the sickle-cell trait, it is advisable not to conduct marriage between people who share the trait. | Tsy mifindra izy fa manaranaka. Rehefa fantatra fa 25 isanjato ny herijika ananan'ny zaza iray hahazo ny aretina raha samy mitondra ao aminy ny ray aman-dreniny, dia tsara kokoa raha tsy mifanambady ny olona roa samy mitondra ity fikorontanana ity. |
23 | Doctors have also advised the Tharu community to go for inter-caste marriages in the areas where the disease is prevalent to check the further spread. | |
24 | Awareness is all we need, the rest will follow! #SpeakOnSickleCellObama for World #SickleCell Day 6/19 @POTUS @FLOTUS pic.twitter.com/XqMnWerW8N | Nanolo-kevitra ny vondrom-piarahamonina Tharu ihany koa ny hanambady olona hafa foko raha monina any amin'ny faritra anjakany ijerena ny mety mbola ielezany na tsia. |
