Re: China reports death of H1N1 flu infection

Uhm. H1N1v could hardly kill someone, if the virus is a human/swine triple reassortant. This was cleary stated by the US CDC&WHO.

H1N1v is closely related to human influenza A.

I can explain this Death as caused by H1pdm09... Until proven the contrary.

This death is being associated with the H7N9 cases in some Chinese language media.

Machine translation of an RFA article

"The continent cumulative 10 H7N9 bird flu
2013-04-03

Of human infection with the H7N9 avian flu cases continue to increase, the latest three infections, including Hunan, 50-year-old man has died, and the remaining two from Zhejiang, one death and one person critically. The country has total confirmed cases to 10, including four deaths."

This article from zMedSci.cn gives details on this case and calls it H1N1v. BUT, the headline of the article associates it with H7N9.

Machine translation of original article:

"Hunan new cases of H1N1 flu (H7N9) deaths, one week before the onset

Xinhua Changsha, April 3 reporter learned from Yueyang City, Hunan Province, disease control departments, and patients suffering from the new H1N1 influenza virus in Yueyang died after the rescue of more than one week, a.

According to reports, the 50-year-old deceased Moumou, native of Fujian Province, Recently doing business in Yueyang, before the onset to Wuhan travel. According to the person in charge to participate in the life-saving treatment Yueyang City Second People's Hospital on the morning of March 26, Moumou his family to the hospital treatment, fever, high fever, cough and other symptoms, the hospital immediately its flu treatment.

After a few days of observation, the health care workers involved in the rescue is not found to be infected new
The symptoms of H1N1 influenza, the family of the deceased are still isolated for observation.
It is understood that the new H1N1 flu are acute respiratory infections, the pathogen is a new type of influenza A (H1N1) virus spread in the crowd. The new H1N1 influenza was confirmed at the end of last year, a new flu variant, similar to the symptoms of H1N1 influenza...".



I can see how mainstream media might lump all "flu" deaths together, but I am surprised that the MedSci article associates it with H7N9.

ETA: On the main "News & Events" section of the MedScit website, the above article is actually listed as: "new cases of H1N1 influenza in Hunan (probably H7N9) ".

Check also the links on the right. Apparently the virus does not efficiently transmit asmany contacts are disease free. What struck me is that yesterday they already had mass produced H7N9 reagents and sent them to Bejing. That is quite efficient - or it has been known longer than just a few days that it is H7N9

Four dead from new strains of H7N9 Bird Flu and H1N1 Swine Flu


Two more cases of H7N9 avian flu, one fatal, have been reported in Zhejiang province, bringing the total number in the country to nine. In Hunan, a 50 year old man is dead from a previously unseen strain of H1N1 swine flu, according to the local health authority.

Xinhua reports:

In a statement, the provincial government said a 38-year-old cook surnamed Hong died on March 27. The man, who worked in Jiangsu Province, where four other cases of H7N9 bird flu have been identified, became ill on March 7 and returned to his home in Jiande, Zhejiang, where he was admitted to a hospital on March 18.

The other patient, a retired Hangzhou man surnamed Yang, was admitted to a hospital on March 25 with a cough and fever. He was later transferred to another hospital.

Health authorities also confirmed yesterday that he is infected with the H7N9 bird flu virus. No connection between the two cases had been found so far, the statement said.

Two men in Shanghai died from the disease this month, and five patients are in a critical condition in Nanjing.

All the patients began showing symptoms of pneumonia in the second half of March. None of them is showing signs of recovery, hospital officials said.

The Ministry of Agriculture said it had yet to find any animals infected with H7N9, though added it was possible it had been brought to China by migratory birds.

The Health and Family Planning Commission said H7N9 vaccines may be available in six to eight months.

Feng Zijian, director of the health emergency center of China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said it is impossible that H7N9 could develop into a public health incident like SARS in 2003 that transmitted through humans.

"H7N9 is completely different from SARS, and those who had contact with the nine patients have shown no related symptoms," Xinhua quoted Feng as saying.

In Hunan, a 50 year old surnamed Zhang was admitted to hospital on March 26 with respiratory problems, he passed away on April 3.

Medical staff involved in the emergency treatment did not contract the H1N1 virus and family members of the deceased are still under medical observation in quarantine.

The new H1N1 flu, an acute respiratory illness, is caused by a new strain confirmed late last year by health authorities and can spread among humans. It has similar symptoms with the H1N1 flu.

While some reports state that Zhang died from H7N9, Xinhua has numerous reports stating that the virus is the more contagious H1N1 strain.

Re: China - Man, 50, died, reported as H1N1v - Hunan province

So is this H1N1v, or just a drifted pH1N1? Or just ordinary pH1N1? I thought the H1N1v notation referred to swine H1N1 viruses that do not spread H2H efficiently. But the reports seem to indicate he caught this from a human, not a pig.

It seems what is being reported here is not a human infection with a novel swine virus, so probably not H1N1v.
