A(H1N1) sl?r h?rt i Norge
2009-10-29
Antalet d?da i svininfluensan stiger i Norge. Nu vill h?lsomyndigheterna utreda om landet f?tt en annan, mer d?dlig variant av viruset ?n grannl?nderna.
L?s ?ven:
L?karnas roll ifr?gas?tts n?r f?rs?ljningen av Tamiflu ?kar
13 personer som testats positivt f?r svininfluensan har nu d?tt i Norge. P? onsdagen avled det senaste offret, en 20-?rig man p? Rikshospitalet i Oslo.
I Danmark har ingen som burit p? viruset d?tt och Sverige har bara tv? d?dsfall. Norska h?lsomyndigheter ?r bekymrade ?ver diskrepansen och har d?rf?r beslutat sig f?r att granska samtliga d?dsfall f?r att se om sjukv?rden beg?tt n?got fel eller om norrm?nnen kan ha drabbats av en mutation av viruset, rapporterar TT.
? Alla l?nder i v?rlden s?ker efter f?r?ndringar i viruset. Vi vet att influensavirus kan vara instabila och att nya influensavirus ofta ?r det, s?ger h?lsodirekt?r Bj?rn-Inge Larsen till tidningen Aftenposten.
Hittills har man inte funnit n?gra tecken p? att viruset skulle avvika fr?n det som drabbat resten av Norden och ?vriga v?rlden.

13 people tested positive for swine flu, have now died in Norway. On Wednesday died in the latest victim, a 20-year-old man at Rikshospitalet in Oslo.
In Denmark, no one who had the virus died, and Sweden has only two deaths. Norwegian health authorities are concerned about the discrepancy, and has therefore decided to examine all deaths to see if the care is at fault or if the Norwegians may have been affected by a mutation of the virus, reported TT.
- All countries in the world are looking for changes in the virus. We know that influenza viruses can be volatile and that the new influenza virus often are, "said health director Bjorn-Inge Larsen at the newspaper Aftenposten.
So far we have found no evidence that the virus would be different from that suffered by the rest of Scandinavia and the rest of the world.
