Vietnam reports 5th bird flu death this year
(philstar.com) Updated December 01, 2009 01:09 PM HANOI (AP) ? Bird flu has killed a Vietnamese man, the Health Ministry reported Tuesday, following warnings from the World Health Organization about a potential combination of the bird flu and swine flu viruses.

The 23-year-old man died last week, two days after being admitted to a hospital in the northern province of Dien Bien, some 310 miles (500 kilometers) north of Hanoi, the ministry said in a statement on its Web site.
Test results confirmed he was infected with the H5N1 bird flu virus. He fell sick after eating duck blood pudding.

Last week, the WHO warned that with fresh H5N1 bird flu cases reported in poultry in Egypt, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam, the risk of bird flu and the H1N1 pandemic swine flu virus mixing was heightened. Egypt also has recently reported human cases.

Scientists fear that bird flu ? which remains hard for people to catch but kills about 60 percent of those infected ? could combine with the current swine flu virus that spreads easily among people but kills a low percentage.

The bird flu virus has killed 57 people in Vietnam, including five this year, since it began raging across Asia in late 2003. At least 262 people have died from it worldwide, according to WHO.

Influenza A/H5N1 back
Updated at: 10:49 AM, March 12, 2009
After four months im quite quiet hours, influenza A/H5N1 has returned evidence that deaths are the first "sticky" this virus by eating poultry farming more ducks before has the disease.

Ministry of Health has officially confirmed deaths due to a flu A/H5N1. This is the first fatality recorded by the influenza A/H5N1 in Dien Bien province, on October 21, 2009 from this local message is avian influenza in two communes in the province. Thus, since th?ng 4 / 2009 to now, after more than half a year, Vietnam recorded Left fatality for A/H5N1 influenza.

Something worth saying in 2009, the country recorded five ca influenza A/H5N1 infection in five provinces of Dien Bien, Thanh Hoa, Quang Ninh, Ninh Binh and Dong Thap, then all five cases were fatal. Epidemiological investigation of the health sector shows that most deaths due to influenza A/H5N1 which is related to eating and processing, poultry slaughtering sick or dead. Particularly the most recent deaths in the province of Dien Bien, patients eat more duck soup before onset patients a week.

Time, the psychological "deafness is not afraid of guns, people still indifferent slaughter sick birds die, eat more soup duck, ducks live, despite the recommendation to" sore neck, throat explosion "of the related functions. Remember, in late May 2009, to ensure hygiene and food safety for consumers, prevention of diseases in humans and animals, MARD has issued a ban sale of more farming of animals nationwide . In fact, every decision, the seller is selling, people still eat food, body functions are also likely ... helpless.

Also in this decision, the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Cao Duc Phat also suggest ministries, leaders of the provinces and cities under central authority to tighten control transport, slaughtering, sale and consumption of animal . Also, animal products must be sold in place regulations, prohibit sale of animals not native and not the veterinary quarantine However, state trading, smuggled animals, poultry and other products of animal organs, poultry quarantine has not occurred "bustle" in the borders, the border. The car load of goods up to tens of tons, carrying smuggled chickens, animal organs ... day and night is "fit hole underground metal," "properly" until the Capital, even hand delivered, to make the customer.

According to a report of the Sub-Department of Animal Health Lang Son, the agency has taken samples included 591 service drive lubricant, Hong poultry and 80 serum samples of poultry from China smuggled chickens confiscated, sent to the Center Central Veterinary Diagnostic to test. Results 73 samples had antibodies to influenza A/H5N1 virus. Mr. Do Van Duoc, Director Chi Chi Lang Son Department of Animal Health said that the story captured, destroyed smuggled chickens, eggs, animal products such as the heart, in pigs, ducks made available meat, eggs ... smuggled the story "daily in the district" of the functional departments province.

While progress is raging influenza A/H1N1, plus cold weather favorable for virus growth and subjective sense, as often people's diseases, avian influenza convergence factors for the full return again. Mr. Nguyen Huy Nga, Director of Department of Preventive Health and Environment confirmed, the patient had influenza A/H5N1 virus proved this exist in the environment as well as on poultry. Health sector professionals, veterinary coordination are to continue research on the flu virus and bird flu virus A/H5N1 in humans through infected latest ca.

Concerned about the combination of two pathogenic strains are carried high mortality H5N1 and H1N1 is most of the health service is not "threatened". And so, the risk here is the first year, people have to pick a New Year "with" two infectious diseases extremely dangerous. Hope that still images are solemn in chickens on wheels engine first New Year the same price, not boycotted, nearly "extinct" as the New Year in any :tiphat:http://www.baodatviet.vn/Home/chinhtrixahoi/Thoiluan/Cum-AH5N1-tro-lai/200912/70694.datviet

According to test results of the Central Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology on November 29 showed that patients positive for influenza A/H5N1 virus. Epidemiological history showed that patients eat more duck soup for about a week before the onset of disease. DDay is the case the first death recorded in the influenza A/H5N1 DDien Bien province since this local message with avian influenza in Do Luong commune and Yen Thanh, Dien Bien on October 21, 2009 . Thus, from early 2009 until now, the country recorded in ca influenza A/H5N1 infection and in this case have died.

After the appearance of avian influenza in the communes Do Luong, Yen Thanh (Dien Bien), Dien Bien Province People's Committee has officially announced the recurrence of avian influenza in the province of Dien Bien district.

The media continually broadcast messages absolutely not eat more poultry farming, but sad messages that do not reach many people. In areas with services that still exist in more consistent covert sales people for farming or unfortunately this type of their lives to eat more soup bowl, it is a warning to local authorities to think .
