The researcher John Oxford, an expert on influenza virus A Queen Mary's School of Medicine in London (United Kingdom), has warned that deaths from the H1N1 virus "will skyrocket over the next two years" due to mutations that will suffer and that will affect a higher percentage of population than hitherto.

The researcher John Oxford, an expert on influenza virus A Queen Mary's School of Medicine in London (United Kingdom), has warned that deaths from the H1N1 virus "will skyrocket over the next two years" due to mutations will suffer and that will affect a higher percentage of population than hitherto.

Speaking at the opening of a symposium on Friday in vaccines celebraod Baiona (Pontevedra), John Oxford said the biggest impact of the pandemic - as has happened before - is recorded in the second and third year, and recalled that, given this and that a large percentage of the population has been vaccinated, the incidence is higher.

In that sense, the director of Retroscreen Virology at St. Bartholomew's and the Royal London Hospital in London recommended the vaccination as a "decision of individual responsibility," and noted that the influenza virus A "has not gone away and come back in years successive over and over again. " "It is a preventable disease", hue, while efforts are called for cooperation at national and local "for the vaccine to all parties."

For his part, Jos? Mar?a Eiros, head of the virology section of the Hospital Clinico Universitario de Valladolid, stressed that the surveillance conducted in Spain for influenza A was "exemplary" and introduced new molecular diagnostic techniques " in record time "and document" the drift of the virus, which is changing.

Eiros recognized that there is "risk" that this virus, along with others from the flu, mutate and transform "meeting" with others, as called for, if that happens, give information "transparent and true" to population.
