Influenza A is expected to confirm the first fatal victim
Confirmed the first two suspected cases in the city which were attended in public health in early June. On Saturday a woman who died was placed in Pergamino. The Crisis Committee will meet today to decide what the shops. The discussion focuses on recreational activities in enclosed areas, while influenza spreads around the country
Influenza A is the daily running of the capital to settle in the interior, ceased to be the main report of the news channels seem to open and is no longer important and that care must be smaller.
However, we must remember that this flu, which can result in death, affecting humans around the world and Argentina is the third largest in the world in number of deaths that could be between 94 and 108, according to official data, and still do not know actually what is the total number of affected.
Many infections could have been avoided if he had acted in time and if people had taken the dimension that an unknown disease and the ability to stop the activity of entire cities.
Confirmed cases
During the morning of Saturday confirmed that the first two suspected cases of Influenza A H1N1 treated in public health. Add to the three confirmed that the clinics. The difference was in time of action, as the case of the clinics were quickly confirmed by the analysis have been sent to private entities, where it costs about $ 150 pesos a "formality." The case is the pair of Bolivian origin who was treated at the Hospital on June 19, the analysis sent to the Institute Malbr?n unveiled almost a month after that the result was positive. The couple lived in the area of Las Canaletas beyond the lowering of Ch?vez, at the home of some friends from last May, the date on which the neighbors say they began to see women. Her husband was going and coming from Buenos Aires to San Pedro and one of those trips made contact with some Mexicans who infected him. Then he passed the disease to his partner. They are now in Capital, and discharged without problems, but after being in contact with dozens of people who were not treated.
Does the first victim?
Last week it was learned the tragic news of the death of sampedrina Cristina Salazar, 28 years. The woman, five months pregnant, had submitted a picture of pneumonia, which was served at a local hospital. With the complication of the case was referred to St. Joseph Hospital of Parchment, where he was placed in intensive care under strict control and attention.
There, according to their share of death, lost his life due to "respiratory failure" and it could be the first fatal victim sampedrina of Influenza A.
According to Dr. Gerardo told Monacci, Director of the Hospital San Jos? de Pergamino, once was the death, with the permission of the family, took the woman's body a specimen of the lung to perform a post mortem. There are two objectives of this study: first, to confirm whether the death was by Influenza A and, on the other hand, if the result is positive, take the fabric as a test case for studying the virus and its progress.
The sample has already been sent for analysis to the Institute for Malbr?n, along with a worksheet that reports the situation and requests that there are no major delays in its definition.
Is inconclusive for two children a month and a half who died after being transported by suspected cases of influenza and respiratory those who never did the analysis.
According to the Undersecretary of Health, about eighty-five percent of cases "should have been" influenza A, although all those affected with symptoms that exist to be served are treated as sick of the H1N1 strain.
The analysis and prevention
There is limited amount of people who are subjected to tests that will determine whether or not they are victims of the disease known as swine flu. However, several people with flu-like state are sent to their homes to remain at rest there, without knowing what is happening to them because it is totally unnecessary you are in the public health service. Since a week ago made the decision to give to each of the suspected cases the tablet with the ten tablets of Tamiflu. " If such a determination had been made on time, surely it could have come to prevent further spread, prevent deaths and paranoia.
The lack of analysis suggests a large number of potentially contagious sick and they do not know their diagnosis and perhaps never will, so also are or will be part of the statistics. In fact, as stated by the Secretary for Health, Dr. Julio Caraballo, regarding the epidemiological picture of Intendente Barbieri: "It must have been Influenza A, sure ... and went walking in the campaign. It is no kid, and even came to take the medication he was given antibiotics and it happened ", but is another who has never been analyzed.
Social responsibility
A major dilemma arises as a result of the advancement of Influenza A. Isolation and avoid contact with the largest numbers of people are important from the outset a key recommendation, but the daily, routine, and above all economic activities are beginning to bring into play the very consistent in terms of care of their health and lives of loved ones.
Over the weekend, the fight was in the hands of employers and individuals, in some cases reported the opening of shops, while it was "forbidden", as did several restaurants and a pub in Saint Lucia (see page 15) and in other cases resulted in sanctions by the OIG to business operation.
The strongest case in the discussion centered around a birthday fifteen scheduled for Saturday, because although they were not permitted private parties, was granted a permit for the event, Governor Castro. That was the starting point for any opinions on whether to resume normal or no activity, despite the health emergency and the agreement that kept the area municipalities in the Regional Crisis Committee.
Birthday should have been suspended, if it serves the text of the regional and local events that might prohibit jeopardizing the health of people crowding. Inspector General was presented to verify if the birthday could be done or not, because the father had everything ready quincea?era.
No missing versions state that the CEO Alvarez would have given the nod to a neighbor of his partner in the elections. Bronze slipped himself that someone "put the spoon and told the good man who could do it," it stressed to Inspector General to see whether to authorize. Bronze took over the responsibility to allow an exception to the rules in force and the birthday was developed without the traditional dance, and that the authorization provided that only scenarios, with the tables as the resolutions indicated for restaurants.
Bronze was in bret provide publicly resign over the possibility that suspected on arrangements for the conduct of that birthday: "I'm going to ****," said Director of Inspection, who admitted to an implied authorization exception and that was because the situation was "touched the heart."
Now beginning to consider the boundary between the responsibilities and obligations. When you begin to get at the heart of the discussion should take place if a birthday or not and if a table less than two meters is another solution to avoid a penalty by inspection, it seems relegated the most important thing. Although the key actions of the authorities to try and regulate what can and what is not done as an extra to an unforeseen situation, it is also important to the implementation of civic duty. Is it necessary that an authority should punish a trader to open their doors? Or a person can decide whether to risk their health or not. It is also important to note that these traders must pay a month-end accounts as every thirty days. But it is crucial to articulate a duty to meet the obligation.
It is true also that the power can have a resolution is not the same as an ordinance can be punished by a City Council concerned and driven to the health emergency that affects their constituents. At meetings of the Crisis Committee, few have been elected to the faces that were seen.
Today the committee meets on crisis
On this day, the municipal Crisis Committee to hold a further meeting to publicize a new release with the resolutions on the next steps in the health emergency with respect to activities for the advancement of disease.
The Assistant Secretary of Health announced the view that the meeting be based primarily on defining what will be done with the business. Although from the province to the municipalities were free to decide according to the epidemiological picture, recommended to keep closed spaces crowded with young people, such as dancing clubs in this area will focus the discussion.
The doctor said "go down significantly the number of consultations" with respect to influenza, in both adults and pediatrics sector where there is the descendant "for 15 or 20 days."
