University Airlangga Has International Bird Flu Laboratorium

Surabaya -- the MEDIA: Tropical Disease Center (TDC) the University of Airlangga Surabaya had the Avian Influenza laboratory (AI) or Bird Flu was on an international scale that was the grant from the Japanese government.

The laboratory with equipment "Biosafety Level-3" (BSL-3) that, was handed over by the deputy in the Ministry of Education, Budaya, Olahraga, and Science And Technology (MEXT) Japan, Fujiki Kanji in the building of TDC Unair Surabaya, on Monday.

The sophisticated implement BSL-3 that, was accepted by the representative of the Co-ordinating Minister Kesra Dr Ir Bayu Krisna Murthi by being witnessed by the director of the Centre of the Medical Research (ICMRT) from the University Kobe Japan, Prof Hak Hotta MD PhD and the director TDC Unair Prof Dr Yoes Prijatna Dachlan MD MSc.

BSL-3 that had sophisticated technology was based on DNA, was the Japanese government grant to follow up the TDC Unair research co-operation by the Centre of the Medical Research the University Kobe Japan uptil now, said Prof Dr Yoes Prijatna Dachlan MD MSc.

Accompanied by the director of the Centre of the Medis Research (ICMRT) from the University Kobe Japan, Prof Hak Hotta MD PhD, he suggested, laboratory equipment BSL-3 that with a value of Rp15 billion from the total grant Rp100 billion during 5-6 forthcoming years.

The implement was sent directly from Japan with the focus of the Bird Flu research, because the spread of Bird Flu in Indonesia was classified as high in the world.

However did not close the possibility will be developed for the other tropical disease research, he said.

Moreover, the implement that had the level of the security relatively high from contamination of the Bird Flu virus, could identify the Bird Flu virus and found the prevention model, so as the vaccine for medical treatment also could be found.

According to the director of the Centre of the Medis Research (ICMRT) from the University Kobe Japan, Prof Hak Hotta MD PhD, with the existence BSL-3 in TDC Unair, then the research could be about Bird Flu carried out in Indonesia.

Although must be brought overseas only had a confirmation nature.
However, the available laboratory might not be indeed compared with what available in Hong Kong, because the research in Hong Kong was indeed earlier, because the Bird Flu virus was quite starting from there, he said added.

Moreover, he said, the research co-operation will for the beginning stage be carried out in three years by placing four Bird Flu researchers from the University Kobe Japan to accompany four researchers Unair Bird Flu.

Separately, the co-ordinator of the project of the research co-operation of Unair-Kobe from Unair, Dr Choirul Anwar Nidom said, the prevention model of the Bird Flu virus could be investigated with BSL-3, because BLS-3 also could investigate his spread model. His key, found the spread model.

If his spread model could be found, then his prevention model will more be easy to be done, let alone having the machine analysing the DNA data the virus and the determining machine of the number of viruses that infected casualties, he said explained.

The Bird Flu researcher from TDC Unair Surabaya claimed, equipment from Japan was very important, because of the number of Bird Flu sufferers in Indonesia quite high, namely 90 sufferers. The 90 Bird Flu sufferers came from West Java, Jakarta, Tangerang, and Jambi.

"Whereas from East Java still zero, but did not close the possibility of being available, because of the poultry in East Java also like the poultry in Indonesia that was not controlled by the government", he said.

With the implement grant BSL-3 that, he continued, TDC Unair will become one of the centres of the Flu Burung Research in the world that will be made use of for the Bird Flu research in south countries from Africa to Latin America.

For the A category and B, spread dikawasan Sumatra. Now for the C category spread in Kalimantan.

Whereas to C1 spread in various places, and for D the region spreading him covered the Papua area and Sumatra the southern part.

We were also surprised, the virus in Indonesia was current the local law, so between the area of one and other different. Moreover sometimes mutated, he added.

According to him, the study molekular at this time still continued to be needed to learn the character was different from these virus kinds.

The mutation of the virus H5N1 in Indonesia, continued the chairman of the bird flu Laboratory Bio Safety Level-3 (BSL-3) this, still had a mutation nature small.

According to him, his control must be also matched the character of his virus. Moreover, till at this time, medicine for the bird flu sufferer also was not yet found.

Tamiflu in fact was common flu medicine, but than will be completely, then Indonesia broke to use tamiflu, he added.

Both of the variants are results of the mutation of the A variant, he said in Surabaya, on Monday (26/11). The A variant was known as the first variant that spread in Java.

In Papua and Sumatra the southern part, the A variant mutation became the variant of D. The problem is did not yet have the clinical data in each identity of the virus. It did not yet have the virus research in the living situation so as to be difficult identified the characteristics in fact, he said.

Nidom hoped, the appointment of the safety laboratory of biology in Unair today helps the identification of the virus. In the laboratory, the virus could in thorough in the living situation.

Regarding various H5N1 "varieties" in Indonesia. Although the article notes that "A" is present in Java, some 60+ percent of all confirmed human cases of H5N1 in Indonesia are from the island of Java. Move information on the strains present in Java would be useful.

Re: General Indonesian News - November 24+

From Riau

The Traditional Poultry market involved a High risk spread Bird Flu

The free sale system of the poultry was in the traditional market considered by WHO unhealthy.

The practice of that kind had the highest risk of spreading the bird flu virus.

Riauterkini-Pekanbaru- results of the Health Body research of the World (WHO) with the Food and Agriculture Organization of The United Nations (FAO UN) found height resistance of the risk factor of the traditional market in the spreading of bird flu in Indonesia.

Therefore, the increase in the supervision of the market by the government in anticipating the spreading avian influenza must be given priority.

"We found the height" of the "concentration" of the "virus H5N1 in the traditional market."

This condition was believed in to the risk factor was highest in the spreading of the case of bird flu in Indonesia and the Riau Province especially, said Vertinary Epidemiologist Avian Influenza FAO UN Leo Loth, BBS DVM to the reporter disela the agenda review Riau bird flu in the Hotel Prince Pekanbaru, on Tuesday (27/11).

So, continued Leo, very important for the government in order to be able to increase the supervision of the markets traditional this.

According to him, the critical spreading H5N1 that happened when the community bought the living chicken and then brought came home this chicken to be consumed.

It should be that, said Leo, the chicken lived that was sold marketed might not be brought came home. "Better the chicken was at once cut off in the same market," he explained.

Based on analysis Department Health and WHO as well as Official Health Province Riau concerning 42 cases bird flu to human being in Riau market and lingkungan (surroundings) house become mistake one factor risk highest spreading virus H5N1. Matter/Case that proven from six confirmations positive cases bird flu in Riau.

[won't translate]: Kelimanya masing-masing Ani, 29, warga Kota Pekanbaru, Yatino, 26, warga Kabupaten Indragiri Hulu, Gerhat Saragih, 33, warga Kabupaten Kampar, Linda Tismery, 44, Warga Kota Pekanbaru, dan Muhammad Nabi, 31, warga Kabupaten Bengkalis. Sedangkan Vivi Asokawati, 5, warga Kota Pekanbaru diduga tertular melalui media ayam peliharaan di kandang. Kasus Vivi merupakan satu-satunya konfirmasi positif flu burung yang berhasil diselamatkan jiwanya.

On the side other, the Head of Sub Directorate (Kasubdit) Zoonosis Departemen of the Health RI Wilfred Purba gazed at the need of the expansion of the indicator in determining the case of bird flu that happened to humankind.

As far as this is concerned, said Wilfred, the medical staff still bimbang [bimbang = hesitant; worried; flustered] in broke appropriate or not a person was stated suspect infected by the virus H5N1.
The "case" of the "spreading" of "bird flu to humankind indeed still miteri." [miteri is a typo. misteri = mystery]

The expansion of the indicator in the determination suspect was expected to be able to help the medical team that was assigned dilapangan, he said.

Above paragraph translated with QDT & Dictionary:

As far this statement Wilfred, worker medical still hesitant/worried in deciding proper or not person was stated suspect infected virus H5N1. "Cases spreading flu burung to human being certainly still miteri (mystery?). Spreding/Development indicator in/within determination/definition suspect hoped be able help team medical that undertake in field," he said.



He added, the expansion of the indicator could take the form of the early supervision action on the family that had blood relations with suspect bird flu.
The action could become the promotion of the health for the community in guarding against the spread danger of the virus H5N1.

Now, the Sub Dinas Head (Kasubdin) the Health of the Dinas Peternakan Animal (Disnak) the Province Riau Rondang Nayati mentioned as long as 2007 was recorded by as many as 31,501 deaths of the sudden chicken in Riau.

From the total this number, totalling 7,522 was made the sample for the research by the Pengujian Dan Penyidikan Veteriner Hall (BPPV) Regional Ii Bukittinggi West Sumatra.

"Results totalling 625 evidently positive infected by the virus avian influenza."
The highest number was found in the Pekanbaru City and Rokan Hilir namely 279 and 203 positive poultries, explained Rondang.

"... the prevention model of the Bird Flu virus could be investigated with BSL-3, because BLS-3 also could investigate his spread model ..."

I see now that BSL-3 seems enaugh for many other parts of the world (probably an step down of security) -
Japan send an BSL-3, when by US guidelines it must be an BSL-4 for bird flu manipulations.

Why is that deminutive policy?
WHO guidelines about?

21 districts in the City Bandung Infected by the AI virus

Bandung, (HOMEWORK).- the bird flu Virus (Avian influenza/AI) again attacked the poultry in the Bandung City after two stopped months.
The rain season it was indicated triggered the development of the deadly virus.

As many as 26 poultries were destroyed because of being proven was attacked by the AI virus in Kp.Cilameta, Street ##### Kel.Cipadung Kidul, Kec. Panyileukan, the Bandung City, on Tuesday.

During 2007, the AI virus has attacked the poultry in 21 from 139 districts that became the endemic area in the Bandung City.

From 2006 to at this time, at least 1,800 poultries were destroyed because of being attacked by the virus of AI. The attack by the bird flu virus was at a peak in January, in February, and in March. Emerge again in September and in November.That was raised by Pertanian Kota Bandung Section Head, Deddy Mulya when being met in Kec. Panyileukan, Kota Bandung, on Tuesday (27/11).

The researcher of the bird flu virus from the Airlangga University, Dr. Chairul Anwar Nidom mentioned, the virus H5N1 that attacked in the Javanese Island, including Bandung, the C type majority and C1 that his structure more adaptif towards the change in the condition for the weather.

The virus H5N1 the C type and C? really adaptif and was easy to change.
He had higher resistance. The danger is, the C type and C? really unpredictable, he said.


In the meantime, the poultry that was destroyed in Kp. Cilameta consisted of 23 chickens talk to and 3 birds (the turtle-dove, the dove, and pipit).

The extermination was carried out after the official checked the sample of blood of two chickens in this environment. The inspection of anatomy pathology, the clinical sign, and rapid test, positive results, he said.

The extermination was carried out after having the complaint from Oye Tabroni (42), on Monday (26/11). Oye saw the strange sign from his 11 property chickens that died suddenly for the last week.

Because felt there is one that is strange, I direct lapor to the Panyileukan Community Health Centre, he said. The chicken that died suddenly that was buried in the yard not far from the Oye house.

The similar matter was experienced by Aris Risman (28). All of his property chickens that were numbering 14 tails died in time two days.
According to Aris, on Monday morning (26/11) his property chicken was still being seen healthy.

Sepulang sold his vegetables was reported his wife had one of their property chickens died suddenly. The hem added, in every few the other chicken hour also experienced the similar matter. Through to overnight did not yet have the report on the sign of the AI infection in humankind that live in around this location.

Nevertheless, the Kesehatan Service of the Bandung City will continue to carry out the resident's check-up in order to anticipates the possibility of this virus infection.

Since 2005, the poultry graph that infected by the AI virus in the Bandung City continued to increase.Moreover, the spreading of the AI virus has been found in 18 district territories in the Bandung City for 2006.

In fact, during 2005, the AI virus was only found in three districts, namely Kel. Pasirluyu, Kel.Gegerkalong, and Kel.The round.

Deddy Mulya added, at the beginning of 2007 signs of the spreading of the AI virus increasingly disturbing.

During January 2007, Dinas Pertanian Kota Bandung found the positive poultry terjangkit bird flu in six districts. In the Antapani District the poultry that didepopulasi had 496 tails.

Most adaptif

The variant of the virus H5N1 in the Bandung territory was categorised inside H5N1 the C variant and C? (read: C accent-red.).

That meant the virus H5N1 that developed in the Bandung City including the virus that most adaptif towards the change in the weather and the other condition.

The virus H5N1 has had minimal 5 variants, that is the A type, B, C, C?, and D. the Structure of his foundation was still same, but had small changes that caused the variants, said the researcher of the bird flu virus from the Airlangga University, Chairul Anwar Nidom.

According to the newest analysis from his agency, the virus H5N1 the C type and C1 really adaptif and was easy to change. That was the reason the spreading of the virus was very sporadic.

Saw the virus capacity H5N1 the C type and C?, until this, we were pessimistic bird flu could stop, he said.

Comment: the header is from the online newspaper

On November 27 2007,

Alert,
the Bird Flu Virus in Indonesian Has Mutated


The bird flu Virus in Indonesia has already mutated, so as its handling must be changed. Dr.CHAIRIL Anwar NIDOM Pakar in Bird Flu from the Airlangga University to RANGGA the reporter the Surabaya Voice, on Tuesday (27/11), said the bird flu virus mutation could be seen from the virus that infected in Medan and outside Sumatra has been different, both from the character and the virus method infected.

This, said NIDOM, (needs?) attention, because it could make the eradication method of the bird flu virus become increasingly complicated.

Naturally, the virus had the different characteristics depended in the area of which virus attacked. So, necessarily giving of the bird flu vaccine was matched with the condition for the endemic area.

The bird flu vaccine for Medan for example, could not be compared with giving of the vaccine that was same in Java. Giving of the wrong vaccine, said NIDOM, even could change the vaccine into the trigger increasing the strength of the bird flu virus.

Along with the NIDOM explanation, [Audio ounce Demand]. NIDOM said that must be attention now and no longer to the poultry that was regarded as the virus bearer. But must think about how the pattern of the spread of the bird flu virus to humankind.

With the Tropical Diseases Centre Universitas Airlangga Team, NIDOM was researching anywhere the bird flu virus could spread after from the poultry, the cat and the pig.

NIDOM words, to prevent must be known first the pattern of his spread. Without that various treatment often was not useful.

For East Java, more NIDOM, so endemic. Still often happened in the Sumatran territory and West Java.

PEKANBARU--Penyebaran virus flu burung sudah meluas di Riau dan sudah menjadi ancaman karena menjangkiti unggas peliharaan. Virus Avian Influenza (AI) sudah meluas ke tingkat sektor 4 karena itu diperlukan kebijakan dan komitmen dari semua pihak untuk mengandalikan AI di Riau.

Demikian hasil kesimpulan review flu burung yang disampaikan Kasubdin Pelayanan Kesehatan dan Gizi Dinas Kesehatan Provinsi Riau Burhanuddin Agung kepada riautoday.com Kamis (29/11). Review ini difasilitasi WHO Indonesia dan Departemen Kesehatan RI selama dua hari 27-28 November 2007 di Hotel Pangeran, Pekanbaru.


Dalam review tersebut juga mengungkapkan penyebaran AI pada unggas di Riau sudah mencakup seluruh (11) Kabupaten/kota, 58 kecamatan, 133 desa/kelurahan dengan jumlah kasus kematian unggas sejak 2005 mencapai 47.770 ekor. Penyebaran itu disebabkan oleh tingginya lalu lintas ternak unggas dan limbah dari unggas antar kabupaten/kota dan provinsi.


"Dengan kondisi ini diperlukan tenaga medis dan paramedis veteriner yang terampil dalam jumlah yang memadai baik di laboratorium, lapangan maupun di puskeswan," ungkap Burhanuddin.


Dikatakan, hasil rumusan terdapat 16 butir poin rekomendasi yang ditujukan kepada para pengambil keputusan baik ditingkat pusat maupun daerah. Rekomendasi menerangkan perlunya komitmen pemerintah dan masyarakat dalam penanggulangan flu burung, perlunya upaya mempercepat terbitnya Peraturan Daerah (Perda) tentang pencegahan dan penanggulangan AI di Riau.


Selain itu, pemerintah daerah bersama Badan Penelitian dan Pengembangan Kesehatan (Balitbangkes) Depkes RI harus bekerjasama dalam mempercepat berfungsinya laboratorium kesehatan daerah (labkesda) untuk pemeriksaan spesimen pasien H5N1. (hnr)
