?El 99% de la gente que ha tenido gripe ha estado infectada con el virus A/H1N1, que ha desplazado al de la estacional?
La Administraci?n pens? a lo grande cuando determin? el n?mero de dosis de vacuna contra la gripe A que podr?an ser necesarias en Extremadura. 260.000 dosis adquiri? Sanidad para asegurar su disponibilidad en la regi?n. La demanda, sin embargo, no ha estado a la altura de las expectativas creadas y s?lo 44.488 extreme?os han hecho uso de ellas de momento. El miedo a los posibles efectos secundarios ha vencido al fantasma de la temida pandemia y la inmensa mayor?a ha decidido correr el riesgo de infectarse.
A contracorriente, un reducido grupo que representa un 4% de la poblaci?n ha decidido inocularse contra el virus A/H1N1. La mayor?a de ellos padece alg?n tipo de enfermedad cr?nica. Tambi?n hay un discreto n?mero de embarazadas: 351. Pocas, si se tiene cuenta que son 10.000 el n?mero medio de gestantes que anualmente hay en la regi?n.
?La gente, en general, se ha mostrado reacia porque pensaban que pod?a ser 'mala' para la salud. Ha habido campa?as con v?deos YouTube tremendas, que pon?an la vacuna de vuelta y media. De manera que se ha creado un rechazo generalizado?, explica Mauro Ramos, subdirector de Epidemiolog?a de la Direcci?n General de Salud P?blica del Servicio Extreme?o de Salud.
La intranquilidad generalizada ha llevado a muchos de los que finalmente se han vacunado a preocuparse por los posibles efectos secundarios. Mauro Ramos indica que se han recibido bastantes sospechas de reacciones adversas. Dieciocho personas presentaron alg?n tipo de efecto secundario y lo notificaron. ?En la mayor?a de los casos manifestaban s?ntomas normales: como dolores locales, fiebre, escalofr?os... Casi todos se han resuelto sin intervenci?n sanitaria y s?lo un caso ha sido grave?, resume Ramos.
Incidencia suave
La que se ha convertido en la pandemia m?s medi?tica del siglo ha tenido una incidencia ?suave? en la regi?n en cuanto a n?mero de personas infectadas: 29.000 hay contabilizadas hasta el momento. ?La onda epid?mica se ha adelantado en el tiempo y ha sido bastante menos agresiva de lo que esper?bamos. Las previsiones que baraj?bamos en mayo eran bastante m?s preocupantes. Se lleg? a considerar que podr?an llegarse a infectar hasta 400.000 extreme?os?, argumenta Ramos, que se?ala que bas?ndose en esos datos se pens? en adquirir un n?mero de dosis de vacunas considerables.
Hasta la fecha, ocho personas han perdido la vida v?ctimas del virus. Anualmente fallecen en la regi?n una media de unas 50 personas a causa de la gripe estacional, seg?n Epidemiolog?a :magnify:. La novedad este a?o es que el A/H1N1 ha desplazado las otras cepas y en el 99% de los casos, los infectados han sufrido gripe A.
La temporada de gripe no termina hasta mayo, sin embargo, por lo que no se descarta que haya otro pico en breve. En Extremadura, el A/H1N1 est? afectando, sobre todo, a los menores de 14 a?os. ?Curiosamente, el grupo de edad de 50 a?os es el que menos casos ha registrado. La explicaci?n hay que buscarla en que la variante de este virus parece tener una inmunidad cruzada con alguno que ya hemos padecido los adultos de la regi?n y quiz? por eso parece que tenemos defensas contra ?l?, apunta el subdirector de Epidemiolog?a.
El programa de vacunaci?n est? abierto todav?a, aunque puede que se cierre pronto debido a que cada vez hay menos demanda. Por la misma raz?n, la vacuna no se ha puesto a la venta al p?blico en las farmacias.

"99% of people had been infected with influenza A/H1N1 virus, which has moved to the seasonal" Management thinking big when it counted the number of doses of influenza vaccine that may be needed in Extremadura. Health purchased 260,000 doses to ensure its availability in the region. The demand, however, has not fallen short of expectations and only 44,488 have used them in Extremadura for now. The fear of side effects has overcome the dreaded specter of pandemic and the vast majority has decided to run the risk of infection.
At countercurrent, a small group which represents 4% of the population has decided to inoculate themselves against the H1N1 virus. Most of them have some kind of chronic disease. There is also a discrete number of pregnant women: 351. Few, if one has the figure at 10,000 the average number of pregnant women who are in the region annually.
"People in general has been reluctant because they thought they could be 'bad' for health. There has been tremendous seasons with YouTube videos, which brought back the vaccine and a half. So it have created a widespread rejection, "says Mauro Ramos, deputy director of epidemiology at the Department of Extremadura Public Health.
The widespread unrest has led many of which have ultimately been vaccinated to worry about the possible side effects. Mauro Ramos reports that it has received several suspected adverse reactions. Eighteen people had some kind of side effect and notified. "In most cases normal symptoms manifested: as local pain, fever, chills ... Almost all have been resolved without medical intervention and only one case was serious, "summarizes Ramos.

"The epidemic wave has moved forward in time and has been far less aggressive than we expected. The forecasts were brainstorming in May were far more troubling. It was considered that might be infected up to 400,000 Extremadura people, argues Ramos, who said that based on these data are thought to acquire a number of significant doses of vaccine.
To date, eight people have died victims of the virus. Die annually in the region an average of about 50 people because of seasonal influenza, according Epidemiology :magnify: . The novelty this year is that the H1N1 has displaced the other strains and in 99% of cases, those infected have been influenza A.
Flu season does not end until May, however, so it is possible that there is another peak soon. In Extremadura, the H1N1 is affecting mainly children under 14 years. "Curiously, the 50 years age group is that fewer cases recorded. The explanation must be sought in the variant of this virus appears to have a cross-immunity with which we have suffered some adults in the region and maybe that's why we seem to have defenses against it ", says the deputy director of Epidemiology.
The vaccination program is still open, although they may end soon because every time there is less demand. For the same reason, the vaccine has not been released to the public in pharmacies.
