Pachuca, Hidalgo .- Despite preventive measures, as anticipated, new cases of influenza A/H1N1 occurred in Hidalgo.

Until yesterday, the report issued by the afternoon, the Ministry of Health had reported nine cases, which urged people to continue the hygiene measures to prevent outbreaks of disease.

Ana Maria Tavares Jim?nez, Secretary of Health, reported that from July 17, started a tally of new patients from influenza. Hidalgo had reached, from the beginning until the end of the epidemic, 272 cases.

Pachuca, Huejutla, Tulancingo Tepeji River and the municipalities are showing a resurgence. To prevent the spread of the virus, the State Committee for Safety and Health discusses the lines of action should be strengthened.

She predicted that the new cases are controlled in Hidalgo, receive care in their homes and do not represent danger.

As announced earlier, there are a thousand doses of antivirals, as well as equipment and human resources to support the situation.

"We're not a rebound. This situation was predictable. However, our rates are still low. Hidalgo is placed on the site yet 17 at the national level."

PREGNANCY CARE

Due to the outbreak of human influenza virus, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned that infection increases the risk of pregnant women suffer stillbirth or abortion.

One study indicates that it has been found in several countries that pregnant women are at higher risk of contracting the flu new, especially between the second and third quarters. In case of infection, are more prone to develop severe or fatal tables.

"Pregnant women should be especially alert to symptoms and that once the notice has to consult a doctor."

WHO has made clear that it supports the prescription of antiviral drugs to pregnant women, but with strict medical supervision.

The agency said that once the vaccine is ready, pregnant women should be among the first groups to receive.

IN THE COUNTRY

In Mexico in recent days there have been 423 new confirmed cases of people infected with the A/H1N1 virus, and killed four more, according to a report on the current status of the epidemic by the Ministry of Health.

It is reported that around the country there are 16 thousand 442 cases and 146 deaths until last Wednesday.

Of the total cases, 50% relate to Chiapas, Yucatan, Mexico City and Jalisco.

On the evolution of the virus in the country, Tabasco, Veracruz, Guerrero, San Luis Potosi, Tamaulipas and Nuevo Leon have increased the number of cases.

VACCINES

Per year are produced 900 million doses of seasonal influenza vaccines. The process begins around May when the World Health Organization (WHO) reports on the types of circulating strains, which should be included in the biological administered from October.

For the new vaccine against the virus A/H1N1, estimates indicate that the international body but there are already some products still to confirm whether they are effective and safe, which would require clinical trials in humans, which can last several months.

Therefore, although it is likely that by October and be available inmunologizante, there will be still in sufficient quantities in the world, but all countries will progressively throughout 2010.

So far, Baxter Laboratories and Novartis have announced advances in the manufacture of the vaccine, immersed in a career involving at least a dozen companies, which are located mainly in Europe, United States and Canada.

However, as WHO has also acknowledged the great challenge presented by the first pandemic of the 21st century is the availability of the vaccine. In the best scenario, at some point be available to the two thousand 700 million doses.

However, if at the end of the scientific and clinical research is determined to be applied two doses, this could mean that protect 350 thousand million people, fewer than one quarter of the world's population.

Mexico has an agreement with the French company Sanofi-Aventis-which buys vaccine for seasonal influenza, which has enabled him to secure 20 million doses of new vaccine. A similar volume is the acquiring of biological winter flu.

In part, this explains the decision of the Health Ministry in line with WHO recommendations, to prioritize the sectors of the population that would receive protection against the A/H1N1 virus: health workers, pregnant and people with associated diseases such as diabetes, cancer, hypertension, among other chronic ills.

In these groups of people who have contracted the disease have more severe respiratory complications, which even resulted in deaths.
