Brasilia - The governor of the Piau?, Wellington Dias, decreed situation of emergence after the death of two pregnant ones with suspicion of influenza A (H1N1) ? pig flu ? in the last days 18 and 20. This year, the state already registered 27 suspect cases, two confirmed ones and a death provoked by the disease. Three pregnant women are interned by suspicion of the disease.

The decree of situation of emergence is going to be in force for three months and guarantees bigger easiness, for example, in the purchase or in the rent of equipments for Unity of Intensive Therapy (ICU), like respirators.
Another adopted measure, in accordance with note published by the government of the Piau?, was to liberation of 16 beds of the Hospital of the Military police for transferred patients of the Institute of Tropical Diseases Natan Portela that they will not be with the disease. In this form, the institute, which works like reference in the state for the treatment of the flu, will be at the disposal of persons infected by the virus Influenza H1N1.
The pregnant ones with suspicion of having contracted the virus will not be any more rascalities in the Motherhood Lady Evangelina Rosa, but in the Institute of Tropical Diseases Natan Portela.
The governor authorized still a feasibility study so that the Central Laboratory (Lacen) of the Piau? can be equipped to carry out the examinations that detect the disease. At present, the test is carried out only by the Institute Adolfo Lutz, in Sao Paulo, and the result stays up to three weeks to be ready.
