Tuesday June 2, 2009

Morelia, Michoacan .- At 39 days to order the health alert by the influenza A/H1N1 virus, health authorities in Michoacan lift the emergency to assess the middle of this month.

Already four days of no new cases are recorded. Although in this period were two deaths and 145 confirmed cases of a total of 2 thousand 500 samples processed.

But the secretary of health in Michoacan, Armed Luna Escalante, warns that people should take into account the recommendations put forward because of the possibility that a new phase of the contingency in autumn-winter.


Interviewed Change Online, the official noted that since the beginning of the contingency the Ministry of Health knew that the outbreak was to be submitted in Michoacan, the close relationship that exists at the epicenter of the city in central Mexico.

"The steps taken were to prevent his presence, were rather to mitigate the impact, in this regard have been very successful."

Hence, he added, that Michoac?n is located in the tenth place in the country in regard to the presence of the virus, like other states under the State of Mexico, Hidalgo, San Luis Potosi, Zacatecas, Veracruz, Tabasco and Guerrero, which reported a more cases.

Kings and Zamora, the most affected municipalities

Of the 113 municipalities that make up the state's geography, at least 50 is the presence of influenza A, but only 22 of them are present H1N1 and 30 percent of these are concentrated in three high-density population centers such as the Zamora-Jacona area, Uruapan, Morelia and Los Reyes.

In the case of Los Reyes, he added, there was another very special circumstances, was another outbreak that originated as a result of introduction of the people via a doctor working at the IMSS de Los Reyes.


In fact we had three outbreaks in Michoac?n, the main begins in Morelia and Zamora in the secondary as a result of a group of young athletes who were previously at the beginning of the health alert in the State of Mexico to participate in a sporting event.

And departed the mortal danger

All patients have been diagnosed for type A influenza A/H1N1 to fully restored.

"At this stage only had to mourn the death of a child at the initial stage of the outbreak, which also had a history of having been in Mexico City 10 days prior to the emergency, virtually came to Michoac?n infected, had a initial treatment at a hospital in Tuxpan IMSS and moved to the hospital where child was almost dying.

Luna Escalante also referred to the death of a man in Ting?ind?n of 69 years of age and who presented a disease-based.


- What is the lesson we leave this virus to Mexicans and especially the health sector?

Without doubt the biggest problem we have across the country, is related to the surveillance that we have to strengthen the basis for the rapid identification and timely responses to threats of this nature on the one hand, and since then the of diagnosis also be ready with a team of leading edge technology as we have in the state of Michoac?n and we are making adjustments in the physical space, so that in the space of ten days and we can be doing and no evidence be dependent in that regard.


I think he left us a great education in the country, in the sense of having a new attitude, a new health culture, observation of security measures that are simple and require no investment from the people of families and the government must be prepared for the possible contingency that may be in the autumn-winter period.
