"Nationally, respiratory diseases behave as every year. We are facing a classic epidemiological season: Mendoza is not out of the national reality, "he said yesterday, Deputy Minister of Health of the Nation, Max Diosque in a round a press after a tour of local hospitals. And it was precisely the situation of health services which the officer took one of the key indicators to bring peace to the people, especially with regard to the presence of H1N1 cases in these lands.
"The number of cases the historical level of the same for comparison, but also the state of health services are transcendent to time to outline a diagnosis. Regarding the latter, in Mendoza there are no signs of overload as it did during the 2009 pandemic, when demand exceeded all expectations of care, "added the official. There are at least 54 people with flu A reported so far in the province and 20 cases under study, plus two questionable deaths, which generated a panorama social alarm in recent weeks. In this regard, said the distribution Diosque respiratory disease is not homogeneous throughout the country: the RSV-causing bronchiolitis-circulated almost exclusively in the North of the country, while other provinces such as Mendoza and Neuqu?n ( see aside), which is present influenza. The authority added that referred to "the mosaic of respiratory diseases varies from one moment to another, meanwhile, there were signs of red or yellow alert in any region." Accompanied by Health Minister Mendoza, Carlos Behler, and the charge of national immunization program, Carla Vizzotti, Diosque remarked: "The circulation of H1N1 is expected for this time of year. We are not overwhelmed. And it's important to know that it is seasonal and has no aggressive behavior: a virus which we have already learned how to behave. " rose vaccination vaccination (for influenza A using the dose trivalent) is the main strategy to prevent deaths in the population sector at risk, less than six months to 2 years, pregnant women and adults over 65 years, and both local and national authorities to ensure that there is stock to meet demand. Until far have delivered little more than 130,000 vaccinations, engulfing 51% of the population vulnerable. And while the official of the Nation in the local campaign initially did not reach expected levels, in the last week were distributed to 12,000 dose in the province, he did pick up vaccination in 10%. "It is advisable to strengthen the campaign in the first months of the year, but late in the winter, the dose is effective. If it is applied today, between seven and 14 days no immunity, "closed Diosque.
