"The pigs were transported in hot hours of midday, they were dewormed, vaccinated only against hog cholera and put in makeshift pens. They developed a respiratory and died. After that the situation has stabilized and no further deaths."

Months later, several chickens died suddenly, but they suspect are related to poultry disease, new castle, which does not affect humans, said Sanchez, who said that if animals were carriers of disease, the owners the pens were more likely to get their neighbors.

Results expected today in San Isidro strange virus


The Truth - Aziel Figueroa Betancourt - Maracaibo - 9/7/2010 00:01 09
The authorities of the Regional Epidemiology expect Caracas today to get the results of samples taken from the bodies of Clode, and Dennys Elvira Portillo, in order to clarify the reasons that led to his death last Thursday and Sunday. The Regional Health Secretariat ran until yesterday that the deaths could be linked to tuberculosis or influenza A H1N1.

The three victims were members of a family and lived together in the La Sears, San Isidro. Arsenio Portillo, a cousin of two of the victims, and Nelson Fernandez, father of Clode, remain under medical observation at the Hospital Universitario de Maracaibo, because the picture of pneumonia were diagnosed. They are stable and improving, Jennifer Fernandez said yesterday, the granddaughter of Nelson Fernandez.

Now suspect that the owner of the farm to which Nelson Fernandez worked for over 15 years, and without any remuneration, Portillo gave the family a sum of decaying flesh. Apparently, the now deceased and sick ate the food, which could cause a poisoning. They will personally research.

However, Nelly Barboza, Regional Director of Epidemiology, ruled that having eaten food in those conditions, hospitalized victims and relatives had shown symptoms of diarrhea or vomiting, which did not happen. "Its symptoms has been more breath".

The University on alert for unidentified virus


The Truth - Aziel Figueroa Betancourt - Maracaibo - 7/7/2010 00:01 07

Investigations into the case of the mysterious disease that killed three members of one family in less than a week continues. The results of samples taken at Clode (32), Elvira de Jesus (57) and Denys Portillo (36), died on Thursday and Sunday for reasons still unknown, could be released in coming days because they need a minimum of 36 hours for processing.

The information was given Nelly Barboza, Regional Coordinator of Epidemiology, who noted that tuberculosis is investigating a possible basis although apparently a bacterial problem. "They are making crops to determine which bacteria is. For the unsanitary conditions in which these people were living there may be other components."

He did not rule at all that can be dealt with leptospirosis, but explained that it is a disease of different behavior. Yesterday morning, a second committee of the Regional Epidemiology Rafael Urdaneta went to the neighborhood and the industry's Sears, both of San Isidro Parish, west of Maracaibo, to make a vaccination campaign among relatives and neighbors of the three victims as well as an inspection of brucellosis in the surrounding farms, with the help of a veterinarian, because in recent weeks have killed a hundred dogs, pigs and chickens in the area, as reported in recent days Diony Berrueta's nephew One of the dead. However, they found nothing abnormal.

The regional epidemiologist noted that two of the families who also have symptoms similar to those of the deceased are being tested in the Hospital Universitario de Maracaibo (HUM). There is also held Arsenio Portillo (35), cousin of Clode, who was diagnosed with a picture of pneumonia, malnutrition and severe anemia.

Peter Morrel, regional director of Environmental Health, said today sent a commission of spraying (spraying) to the area against flies and mosquitoes at the request of the community. The Government will continue tomorrow with the plan for immunization against hepatitis, pentavalent, antiviral, polio and antiinfluenza.

What's animal?

Apart from tuberculosis, it handles the possibility that the death of three members of one family in the area either by leptopirosis San Isidro, a disease caused by Leptospira bacteria transmitted by domestic and wild animals such as cows, sheep, goats, pigs , horses and dogs to humans. People who are in contact with sources of infection, such as water contaminated with animal urine or with biological fluids, are at risk of contracting it.

Its symptoms can be confused with hepatitis, dengue hemorrhagic fever or tuberculosis, although their mortality rate is as low as five percent, detailed Elena Hern?ndez, in charge of Leptospirosis Laboratory, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Zulia (LUZ).

The hypothesis is based on the complaint made by Diony Berrueta, nephew of one of the dead, who says that in recent days have killed many animals in the area for no apparent reason and the victims lived in a farm.

CONFIRMED AS SAID IN THIS BLOG: THE HUNGER MATO A LA FAMILIA DEL BARRIO scorched (MARACAIBO-VENEZUELA)
posted Saturday, July 10, 2010 9:24 a.m.




AS SAID IN THIS ONE BLOG: hunger killed this family (and missing)
Does this happen in Venezuela?
Regional Officer said:
Influenza killed family of "La Rinconada"
Text: Servet Ramones Maidolis
Influenza stationary and malnutrition killed the three people from the same family.
The hypothesis of tuberculosis and influenza H1N1 into the deaths of three members of one family were discarded. The results applied to the bodies showed that died from flu, also called flu stationary.
Maria Moreno, regional secretary of Health, reported yesterday that the flu is joined to malnutrition to cause the death of Claudet Portillo, 32, Elvira Portillo (57) and Dennys Portillo (36), people from La Rinconada , west of Maracaibo.
"They were inmusuprimidos. The first girl had died at 5 mg hemoglobin. They lived in extreme poverty, and this complicated their pictures, "said Moreno.
He noted that both Zoonoses and Epidemiology have been doing visits to villages and scorched Gioconda de La Rinconada where the killings took place, initially created to alarm people, it was believed that this could be an unknown and deadly virus.
"We urge the communities who go to the nearest health center to receive treatment and proper diagnosis," he said Moreno.
MY JUDGEMENT: We imagine that the journalist who made the note, meant "immunocompromised" and not "inmusuprimidos" that does not exist. " Reviewing medical encyclopedias and advice of several friends find:

Immunosuppression is defined as the inhibition of one or more components of the adaptive or innate immune system (inflammation) that may occur as a result of an underlying disease or intentionally through the use of medicines (called immunosuppressants) or other treatments, such as radiation or surgery (removal of the spleen), with the aim of preventing or treating transplant rejection or autoimmune disease. [] When a person is under immunosuppressive therapy, or whose immune system is weakened for other reasons (eg, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, AIDS or Lupus), is said to be immunosuppressed.
Acquired immunodeficiency may be a complication of diseases such as HIV infection and malnutrition, particularly when there is lack of protein. Many cancers can also cause immunodeficiency.
At a conference in Granada SPAIN, he said:
INFLUENZA A H1N1 is so deadly AS ANY OTHER RESPIRATORY TABLE OF PRODUCING INFLUENZA VIRUS DIFFERENT. SEASONAL INFLUENZA, THE respiratory syncytial virus, an H1N1 VS VIRUS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING PICTURES ARE Expiratory = OF DEATH. WE MUST TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DIFFERENT PEOPLE THAT VIRUS ATTACKS AND THE RISK FACTORS OF THE PEOPLE::: MORE WILL BE IN THE DEADLY RISK POPULATIONS: POVERTY, immunosuppressed (malnutrition is an immunosuppression), age POPULATION A LA that attack DIFFERENT VIRUSES.
Many infections are prevalent in children undernourished. See this link.

Probably my explanation is not sufficient from the scientific point of view, but I know that hunger is the trigger for this alleged "illness." Although I hope that candidates and officials they put hands on this box social. Thank God, Dr. Moreno on behalf of the Regional Government has made an appearance.

Is linked to seasonal flu deaths of family in San Isidro


web@laverdad.com - Maria Paola Sanchez - Maracaibo - 7/12/2010 00:01 12
Already arrived. The results of samples taken at Arsenio Fernandez and Nelson Portillo, relatives of three victims of the Portillo family are already in the hands of the authorities of the Regional Health Secretariat to dispel the exact cause of the deaths of Clode (32) Elvira (56) and Dennys Portillo (36), who died last Thursday and Sunday 1 April. samples were taken only three jibs relatives who remained in the Hospital Universitario de Maracaibo.

Although the Health portfolio managed as suspected tuberculosis or influenza A H1N1, the findings of the review revealed the true cause. Nelly Barboza, Director of Epidemiology, said that it is the seasonal flu virus, better known as influenza.

He explained that as this is a humble family, with chronic malnutrition and severe anemia, your immune system is not able to defend against viruses. All these conditions complicate influenza and acute viral table. "A flu is not a reason to die if the person is healthy, but in this case we are dealing with a poor family and poor nutrition. Besides some family members are mentally retarded and all these factors need to be taken into account. "

To remember

The three victims were members of a family and lived together in the La Sears in San Isidro. Arsenio Portillo, a cousin of two of the victims, and Nelson Fern?ndez, Clode partner, remain under medical observation at the Hospital Universitario de Maracaibo, after diagnosing a picture of pneumonia. His situation is stable and improving every day.

Nelly Barboza said today deployed in the sector expanded vaccination program of immunization in order to benefit the community and prevent further deaths. Children and adults may be injected polio vaccine, pentavalent, trivalent viral, anti rotavirus tetanus toxoid, hepatitis B and influenza.

As a first hypothesis, the family suspected that the owner of the farm for which Nelson Fernandez worked for nearly 15 years, the family gave Portillo a sum of decaying meat they consumed.
