En mann i 30-?rene er d?d av svineinfluensa. A man in his 30s has died of swine flu. Det er s? langt ikke kjent om mannen tilh?rte noen av risikogruppene. It is so far not known whether the man belonged to some of the risk groups.

Mannen d?de s?ndag i kommunen han bor i f?r han ble innlagt p? sykehus, opplyser overlege Bj?rn Iversen ved Folkehelseinstituttet til NRK. The man died Sunday in the community he lives in before he was hospitalized, said physician Bj?rn Iversen at the NIPH to NRK.

Iversen sier mannen hadde v?rt litt syk i rundt en uke f?r han plutselig ble veldig mye d?rligere. Iversen said the man had been a little sick for about a week before he was suddenly very much worse.

? Mannen vil bli obdusert for ? finne ut n?rmere om d?ds?rsak og om det kan ha v?rt noen risikofaktorer vi ikke kjenner til, sier Iversen. - The man will be obdusert to find out more about the cause of death and whether there may have been some risk factors we do not know, "says Iversen.

Re: Man in his 30s died of swine flu

D?de av svineinfluensa

Oslo (ANB-NTB): En mann fra Oppland er bekreftet d?d av svineinfluensa. Han tilh?rte sannsynligvis ikke en av risikogruppene.


Mannen hadde v?rt syk i litt over en uke f?r tilstanden hans forverret seg. Han d?de hjemme.

? Mannen vil bli obdusert slik at vi f?r brakt p? det rene hva ?rsaken til d?dsfallet var og om han hadde en underliggende sykdom. Men det er ingenting som tilsier at mannen tilh?rte noen av risikogruppene. Men det vil videre unders?kelser avdekke, sier overlege Bj?rn Iversen ved Folkehelseinstituttet til NTB.

25 personer har s? langt mistet livet p? grunn av influensaen i Norge. 60 personer er innlagt p? sykehus med viruset, og 13 av dem er innlagt p? intensivavdeling.

Died of swine flu

Oslo (AFP): A man from Oppland are confirmed dead of swine flu. He belonged not likely to be one of the risk groups.

The man had been ill for just over a week before his condition deteriorated. He died at home.

- The man will be obdusert (autopsy,ed) so that we can put on the shoulders what the cause of death was and whether he had an underlying disease. But there is nothing to indicate that the man belonged to some of the risk groups. But it will further investigations reveal, "said Dr. Bjorn Iversen at the NIPH to NTB.

25 people have so far lost their lives because of the flu in Norway. 60 people are hospitalized with the virus, and 13 of them are admitted to intensive care.

Re: Norway - Previously healthy man is 25th swine flu death

24th or 25th death

A typo at Folkehelseinsituttet's website ( http://www.fhi.no/eway/default.aspx?...1:5569:1:::0:0 ) seems to have created some confusion

Per 25. november har det v?rt 25 d?dsfall knyttet til infeksjon med A(H1N1): En kvinne og en gutt fra ?stfold, to kvinner fra Hedmark, to barn, en mann og tre kvinner fra Oslo, ett barn fra Vest-Agder, en mann fra Hordaland, en kvinne fra Rogaland, tre menn fra Oppland, en mann fra Telemark, en ten?ring fra Vestfold, tre kvinner og en mann fra Akershus, en mann i 50-?rene fra S?r-Tr?ndelag og en dansk mann som oppholdt seg i Norge.

Av de omkomne er sju under 20 ?r, ?tte i aldersgruppen 20 - 40, seks i aldersgruppen 40 - 60 og tre i gruppen over 60 ?r. 21 av de omkomne har hatt underliggende sykdom som har medf?rt ?kt risiko for alvorlig sykdom ved influensa. De tre som ikke tilh?rte risikogruppene var i aldersgruppene 20-40 og 40-60.

Det siste d?dsfallet som ble meldt i uke 48 var en mann i aldergruppen 20-40 fra Oppland fylke. Han hadde ikke kjent risiko for alvorlig influensasykdom.

Summary of all info given here totals 24 instead of 25. Same number, (24) was also stated to press by Bj?rn Iversen from Folkehelseinstituttet ( http://www.gd.no/nyheter/article4725728.ece )

.......

INFO FROM GOVERNMENT WEBSITE, pandemi.no

Helsemyndighetene oppdaterer oversikt over d?dsfall knyttet til influensa A(H1N1) en gang i uken. Nye tall blir publisert p? onsdager.

The health autorities will update deaths related to H1N1 flu once a week, on Wednesdays

Re: Norway - Previously healthy man is 24th swine flu death

Thanks Celvin for pointing this out.

It seems not clear if the latest fatality is included in the summary on the Website of the Ministery.

#25 could have come later, after the weekly update?

Re: Norway - Previously healthy man is 24th or 25th swine flu death

I just sent an inquiry to Folkehelseinstituttet by e-mail. Hopefully it can be possible to settle the matter soon (I will post info here as soon as I get reply)

Its not that easy to keep track of everyone ...

Thank you Celvin11. Is it possible to provide links for your posts?

Re: Norway - Man from Vestvold is 25th swine flu death

Of the 25 deaths, 6 appear to be children under 18. That's nearly 25%, which is pretty high compared with the U.S. (I don't have data for other nations yet), where the average is ~14-15%.

The last Norwegian case, the man from Vestfold, was included in last update from Folkehelseinsituttet Thursday afternoon local time (a couple of hours ago)

Re: Norway - Man from Vestvold is 25th swine flu death

13 % of H1N1 deaths in Sweden occured among those under 20 years, 2 out of 15 (2 3-year old boys)

In Norway, 6 out of 25 were under 20, thats 24 %

The 6 Norwegians were 2 1/2 years, 9, 10, 12, 16 and 17 years old

Also Germany has a high number of young people among deceased. Some days ago, out of a total of 34, 11 were under 20 (32 %) - ages 0, 5, 5, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 17, 18
