SWINE FLU IN CEAR?
Five cases have been confirmed
13/03/2012


Ceara has had this year, five confirmed cases of Influenza A (H1N1), swine flu, according to the Department of Health of Cear? (Sesa .) Of these, two cases of women who are admitted to the Maternity School Assis Chateaubriand (MEAC) are the most serious, as they are with the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which happens when the disease becomes more serious. Young women who were pregnant, are admitted to the Maternity School Assis Chateaubriand (MEAC) in serious condition, according to the unit's director, Carlos Augusto Alencar Junior. He explains that only the baby of the MSP patient, aged 21, of Beberibe, which It's a boy and has 2.600 kg, showed improvement, as is no longer intubated and not at risk of having contracted the Influenza A. "The virus does not pass through the umbilical cord. Can contract only through the airways. But the child still not out of ICU," he explains. With regard to patients, the director commented that they remain intubated and showed no improvement. 's baby GCF, 27, resident of Fortaleza, did not survive. The girl has the most unstable situation. "She has kidney failure, abnormal liver function, mechanical ventilation, since it is not breathing well," said the coordinator of protecting and promoting public health in Cear?, Manoel Fons?ca. As Fons?ca, Carlos Augusto explains that they will be in this hospital until the end of treatment and that there is no possibility of being transferred to St. Joseph's Hospital of Infectious Diseases. The director notes that ruled it out due to the high degree of seriousness and site is isolated. The coordinator of Sesa noted that last year, the MEAC treated more than ten cases of the disease and that is, yes, qualified for this activity. Questionable Carlos Augusto declares, further, that only happens when the SARS patient who has H1N1 is careless with the disease, ie, not seeking proper treatment. Pregnant women are more likely to have this syndrome, because they can no longer breathe well and have impaired blood circulation. GCF Young's aunt, who lives in Park Santa Filomena, Lucia Tavares Magellan, said she was at least three hospitals to reach the MEAC. "It was a time in the Messejana Gonzales three times in the Frotinha Messejana, where they said she was with dengue. But we are not delivered anything to prove." Lucia reported also that the last hospital in which the young man spent Gonzales was the Walter Joseph, where she had a cardiac arrest and was transferred to the Maternity Hospital. The director of the MEAC said that the GCF baby has died because she had a cardiac arrest and questionable believes that pregnant women received care in hospitals. Relatives of young people were contacted by the Municipal Health Beberibe and Fortaleza. None had symptoms of H1N1. The agencies report that they are investigating how the disease was contracted. Concern 69 people were examined to see if H1N1 were in this year alone. In 2011, this mark was 89 suspects, 24 of which were proven
