Re: H7N9, China: Cumulative number of today confirmed and suspected cases (April 13 2013): 6 cases / 0 deaths (Total 49 / 11)
One among four deposited GISAID sequences of H7N9 genes demonstrated a neuraminidase inhibitors resistance mutation (R292K), while the other three was susceptible.
Further phenotipical test in China WHO Collaborating Centre demonstrated H7N9 susceptible to NAIs.
For more details see the WHO paper: http://www.euro.who.int/__data/asset...res_update.pdf
Genotypic analysis is important to detect early possible mutation in the NA segment that may signals resistance to NAIs.
However, clinical importance of such virologic findings are not clear at the moment, as well as the effectiveness of antiviral treatment with approved drugs at the dosage estimated useful for uncomplicated seasonal influenza or human cases of avian influenza H5N1 virus infection.
We will await a more complete clinical course description published in review eagerly.

Re: H7N9, China: Cumulative number of today confirmed and suspected cases (April 13 2013): 6 cases / 0 deaths (Total 49 / 11)
Good to see that the child victims are being given antivirals - no mention of this treatment is made in the cases of the older victims even though the course of the illness is slow - two weeks ending in pneumonia/MOF
Reports are coming in that Tamiflu is not effective http://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/press/n...2FLists%2FNews
so one wonders why every WHO Bulletin ends with a statement that 'there are as yet no indication that they are not effective'? Are these drugs only being tested in the laboratory rather than on the patients? Are the Pharmaceutical companies wary of their drugs being declared ineffective?
At last reports are coming out that the danger is that this variant H7N9 influenza A being a reassortment between two avian viruses is not contagious BUT now that it is in so many people there is a danger of it meeting up with an H1N1 or H2N3 human influenza virus and reassorting to make a new contagious and possibly deadly virus? (The vaccine race will be on if that happens otherwise it is only a vaccine for poultry which is not tempting to Big Pharma!)
Now the median age of victims is 65 - hence no evidence of a Cytokine storm but also low risk of reassortment because older people will have good immunity to existing 'flu viruses - with me so far?
So the biggest risk is someone contracting both types of influenza virus who is not immune and especially if that person travels on public transport eg works in an office rather than setting off in the early hours to market.
The young victims must be isolated and monitored therefore.
It we duck this bullet perhaps the new Chinese leadership will reform the way that poultry interface with humans throughout their society - oh and educate children about the nature of viruses so that they really understand what to do to interrupt the cycle and scorn the rumour-mongers - and can organise their parents...
I found this 2008 report that highlights some of the difficulties H7 influenza viruses pose when producing a vaccine

- Wash hands frequently with soap, especially before touching the mouth, nose or eyes, handling food or eating, after going to toilet, touching public installations or equipment such as escalator handrails, elevator control panels or door knobs, or when hands are dirtied by respiratory secretions after coughing or sneezing;
- Cover the nose and mouth while sneezing or coughing, hold the spit with tissue and put it into covered dustbins;

Re: H7N9, Shanghai: One New Birdflu Case reported (Ifeng, April 13 2013)
Do we have any idea this man's current condition? As this man's case was identified as a contact of a previously confirmed case (and was only mildly ill when his wife was reported), his illness is likely to be far more indicative of the typical human H7N9 infection than those cases who were detected due to their severity.
