H1N1 toll rises to 100, fears of 2nd wave loom

PUNE: On the day the district administration and the state health services announced they were working on an action plan to tackle a possible second
outbreak of the H1N1 influenza, Pune reported its 100th swine flu death.

The H1N1 toll figures in Pune district have seen a steady, almost day-to-day climb since August 3 when 14-year-old city schoolgirl Reeda Shaikh became the country?s first casualty to the virus.

For the record, the 100th H1N1 casualty was Mohini Undre (28), a resident of Manjari Khurd village, 13 km from the city. She died at a hospital in Hadapsar here on Thursday morning. Mohini was admitted to the hospital in a critical condition and was immediately put on the ventilator. Like many of the earlier deaths, Mohini too died of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

Ten more people tested positive for swine flu on Thursday, taking the number of infected people in Pune district to 4,244. The number of people on the Tamiflu regime stood at 37,357 on the day, and a whopping 6.7 lakh people have been screened so far. Fourteen patients are still in a critical condition in various hospitals. Five of them are on the ventilator.

Meanwhile, the district administration and the state health department are bracing for a second possible wave of the influenza. However, the National Institute of Virology (NIV) here cannot tell for certain whether or not a second wave would come and, if it indeed does happen, whether its intensity would be strong or mild. The experts there say that a second wave is usually seen five to six months after the first outbreak.

The administration, for its part, is planning more intensive care units, isolation wards, medical as well as paramedical workers and a surveillance system in both the rural and urban areas. An action plan is to be submitted to the state government in the next four days.

?As per our present estimates, we will require 17 additional ICUs and 47 quarantine wards for an estimated infected population of one lakh during a possible second outbreak of the flu,? Pune?s resident deputy collector Anil Pawar told TOI. ?As per estimates set by the World Health Organisation (WHO), around 20 per cent of the population in the district is likely to be infected if a second wave happens.?

The approximate population in Pune district is 80 lakh. ?This means around 1.6 lakh of the population could get infected during the second phase of the flu. We are, therefore, preparing a concrete action plan visualising the potential impact of the flu so that we are not caught off-guard,? Pawar said.
