Don't rely on medicine, Kalla says Wahyoe Boediwardhana, The Jakarta Post, Lumajang

Vice President Jusuf Kalla urged people Sunday not to rely on medicines and hospitals to keep them healthy because good "genetics" and environmental factors were more important.

Speaking at the launch of the pilot Desa Siaga health program in Lumajang, East Java, Kalla claimed genetics, a clean environment and healthy living were the key to a longer life.

"After these three requirements are met, then there will be health services. The first three requirements are actually the cheapest to achieve. The most expensive is (providing) health services," he said.

Kalla did not detail how people could improve their genes.

The program has been launched to develop awareness about health threats in villages.

It would also educate people about "graded" health services, ranging from integrated health posts, to community health centers and hospitals.
"A health movement does not mean medicines because the medicines should be the last alternative," Kalla said.

Environmental factors, healthy habits and nutrition were more important, Kalla said.

Kalla said he had ordered all governors, regents and mayors to prioritize these environmental factors to improve health in the regions.

A large number of the nation's poor cannot afford medical treatment and the government has been criticized for not doing enough to prioritize health in the country.

"We do need good-quality hospitals. However regents or mayors who are successful will be those who have good hospitals but which are not full of patients. The many patients getting medical treatment at hospitals means a failure of the regents or mayors," Kalla said.

Health achievements could not be measured by the availability of good hospitals, he said. "However, good hospitals are necessary, because without them, the public cannot get good services," he added.

Meanwhile, Health Minister Siti Fadilah Supari, who accompanied Kalla, said Lumajang had been chosen to launch the program because it had been the only region to successfully prepare it in all of its 110 villages.

The program would eventually reach all areas in the country, Siti said, with a target of 30,000 new villages a year. It is targeted for completion in 2009.

Siti said the ministry had also established emergency service centers in nine provinces, including North Sumatra, South Kalimantan and North Sulawesi.

The centers would help the country anticipate natural disasters, she said.

Bird Flu struck nine subdistricts in Aceh Utara

NAD did not have the extermination Fund

Banda Aceh - the Livestock Breeding Service (Disnak) the NAD Province said nine from 22 subdistricts in Aceh North as the area infected by bird flu (avian influenza).

Beforehand, the Acehinese side North could say 11 from 22 subdistricts in the territory was affected by bird flu.

? We have dropped two teams off to do field investigation.
Results, nine subdistricts in Aceh North infected by bird flu, ? Kadisnak NAD words, Drh M. Nasir Guru Mud, yesterday.

According to him, the Disnak NAD side carried out several anticipatory steps in Aceh North like, biosekuriti, disinfektan the pen, the vaccination, counselling, sanitation, and sent the specimen to BPPV Medan.

Said, biosekuriti that only was not given to the infected area but also was given to all the regency/the city in NAD. Despite that, said Nasir, long before the Disnak NAD side sent all through Disnak the regency/the city so that more readied and was on the alert faced the possibility infected by bird flu in Aceh.

Answered the Veranda about the possibility of the mass extermination, the infected livestock or potential bird flu, Nasir Guru Mud appealed to the community to want to carry personally out the extermination.

?Apart from buried the chicken that died, the community also immediately reported to Disnak closest when having the chicken that died suddenly.
Let's cleanse our environment of the chicken carcass,? please him.

Said, the extermination was very positive to be done as the step interrupted the cycle avian influenza.

However, he said frank that Disnak NAD did not have the fund for that.

Because of this, if having the fund advance, he made a plea so that the Acehinese Regional Government North intervened for the extermination of the poultry that terindikasi and was proven infected by bird flu.

? But, must be distinguished whatever that bird flu and whatever that ND (Newcastle deases).In order to not emerge the new problem, ? he said.

? the Fund for the extermination of the chicken from Disnak NAD was not available.This really depended on the regency/their respective city.
So, the regency/the city if indeed this wanted to be done please for the fund advance that able to was done, ? he stated.

But, mentioned he, if money advance was not then the extermination for Disnak was not possible to be carried out.

Because, was not the same all the areas had the fund advance, at first because at this time gazed at the year end.

In relation to the occurrence of the case of bird flu in Aceh North, M. Nasir made a plea so that the community carries out the action B3K that is, after touching the chicken cleaned the hands with soap, cleaned the pen with disinfektan, gave the vaccination periodically, and penned the chicken apart from the residence.

?If that was done by us, I the feeling God Willing we will be avoided from the virus infection AI,? he said was accompanied drh Amiruddin, the Secretary Task Force Bird Flu NAD/Kasubdin Keswan Disnak NAD.

Just a guess...

Just a guess...

This case of an HIV-infected person poss also being infected with H5N1 is described as a 24 year-old male, the uncle of a confirmed case who had contact with that confirmed case.

Just a guess -- going through the WHO's list of confirmed cases from April -- there was the case of "a 20-month-old girl who resided in Kapuk, West Jakarta" who, sadly, died on March 23, 2006.

http://www.searo.who.int/en/Section10/Section1027/Section2095/Section2176_11637.htm

She doesn't have to have been the HIV patient's niece, but the ages would fit (for an uncle and a niece, I mean).

Good catch, Theresa42. This appears to be a previously unreported case.
Slide #3 points to Tangerang. The presenter may have verbally identified the discussed cases from these areas. Below are two WHO confirmed cases from April 2006 both from Jakarta and both died. It is not clear how IDU could be an uncle to either one of these individuals, but I am not familiar with the kinship terminology in Indonesia. IDU could be an "uncle" to one of these cases. In slide #7, it notes that all three HIV(+) patients suspected with AI died. IDU presumably is one of those individuals.

Here is the listing for two WHO confirmed cases in Indonesia in April.

Thanks, Al! Knew you'd have the patient info at hand.

At this point it's obviously not clear who was the nephew/niece of 'IDU' -- but at least we're now aware of another possible family cluster.

It is not clear how IDU could be an uncle to either one of these individuals....

Well, you never know -- the ages are pretty close and even though these two individuals are older than IDU, he still could have been an uncle to either of them. I have an example from my very own family where one of my great-aunts is only one year older than one of my uncles (i.e. her nephew) -- the blending of generations is one by-product of large families!

Fahmi Fajar, the citizen of Kebon Nanas, East Jakarta, died in RS Persahabatan. The uncle of Bondan Adirama, that was killed with the assumption of bird flu, this contracted sinusitis and the inflammation of the heavy lungs.

Casualties were the deceased's uncle Bondan Adirama that also was killed because of the assumption of bird flu [read: the Patient the Assumption of Bird Flu of dying ran out of Oxygen].

Fahmi that was 23 years old lived in the Keban Nana`s region, East Jakarta. He closed xPRONposs eyes after taking medicine around ten days in three hospitals in Jakarta. Adriani Sofie, said her husband experienced the sign similar to bird flu like hot and breathless since April 11 set.
