DBP - In case of death due to influenza A/H5N1 on November 30 after eating more duck soup Because of Van Minh, 14 teams Pom Middle, Sam Mun commune, Dien Bien make endless story. Test results after the departure of a sudden cousin Minh City (also the same pathological symptoms) were the Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology central positive with confirmed influenza A/H5N1. [??] The sample birds from two families of patients dying from acute respiratory failure suspected influenza A/H5N1: Luong Van God, the Panh, and Luong Thanh Luong Thi Lau, Cuong commune, Pa Thom commune are positive calculated with influenza A/H5N1. Test results led team of health workers from central to local levels raised concerns about the ability to match the influenza virus A/H1N1 and influenza A/H5N1 virus risk are very close.

Risk of influenza combine two services
Dr. Nguyen Tran Hien, Director of Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology of the central receiving medical forum on 7 / 12: "The risk of a combination of influenza virus A/H1N1 and influenza A/H5N1 virus is coming very close. We Vietnamese Men full-risk condition for the reality. Check the flocks are raised by families of patients dying from influenza A/H5N1 first in Sam Mun, and patients die in suspected influenza A/H5N1 Thanh Luong and Pa Thom (Dien Bien) results for see: all poultry infected with influenza A/H5N1. "Thus, the first in Vietnam, the same time, influenza A/H1N1 and influenza A/H5N1 occurred in a community population, in both human and AI "said Nguyen Tran Hien stressed.
According to statistics from the Department of Health: Up to December 12, Dien Bien has ca 675 influenza A (number of patients from the hospital treatment of 670 ca) including 15 positive for influenza A/H1N1 ca. Most patients with influenza A/H1N1 age students, the schools, the risk of infection in the community high. Currently in Hospital Provincial, Regional Clinic The Phu (Dien Bien) has five ca influenza A/H1N1 being treated and the results are very encouraging.
Now with influenza A/H5N1, immediately after the first patient death, health center with the provincial Preventive Health Center of Dien Bien district coordination with the District Veterinary culled poultry family illness Because of Van Minh, Luong Van God, Luong Thi Lau. The process deployed outbreak: Template toxic disinfection around the outbreak of communal Sam Mun, Thanh Luong , Pa Fragrant; strengthen surveillance, early detection of avian influenza to promptly handle not to spread to humans. Hygiene team epidemiological investigation, make a list, monitor the health of people exposed to the three patients with suspected influenza A/H5N1 (for adults follow health after 14 days of children under the age of 15 after 21 days ) by measuring the temperature every day, if a fever above 38 0 C, with clinical manifestations of respiratory inflammation long will treatment, isolation, avoiding the spread cumA/H5N1 community.

People still ignore information flu A/H5N1
It also announced the end of avian influenza (H5N1) a few weeks ago. Types of poultry: chickens, ducks are sold back is listed in the Center City, giving you Phu (Dien Bien). People still use bare hands to check the health chickens, ducks before you buy, sell; no mask, not disinfect ... Buyer birds still winter, despite the information that patients die from influenza A/H5N1 in the area. It looks like service where influenza A/H5N1 is still distant, not related to the culinary needs. Poultry prices cheaper than before 10-15 trillion VND / kg, especially duck, duck so as to attract consumers. Here then, the restaurant at Dien Bien Phu City, Dien Bien (center outbreak) still have thousands more soup, duck, dish "kho?i export" of god and still crowded.

Patient died on November 30 true influenza A/H5N1 and 2 patients suspected deaths related to influenza A/H5N1 avian influenza (bird samples taken at the family were victims of Hygiene and Epidemiology Institute Central tested positive for influenza A/H5N1). [??] Health sector to promote communication through the first surveillance in geographical areas, can not recommend people ignore the avian influenza risk is spread to humans is very high. Each of raising awareness, subject high alert for influenza A/H5N1 and influenza A/H1N1 translated by diet and hygiene, not eating more soup, comply with strict disinfection procedures, sanitation target poisoning outbreaks . When there is bird flu, to immediately report to veterinary outbreaks destroyed; avoid regret that order cheap poultry slaughtering, selling to fund research, work hard dispersed influenza A/H5N1 virus infection risk spread to humans. Currently, the provincial general hospital is still monitoring and emergency patients with a acute respiratory failure, the warning bell service influenza A/H5N1 and influenza A / H1N1 are very close.

Opportunity to cope with pandemic influenza A/H5N1

The complexity of the epidemic influenza A/H5N1 is not just a matter of each individual country in which to become health threats worldwide. To get the best response when pandemic influenza A/H5N1 occurred, Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology Central with experts from the U.S. Institute of Health, Medical Research Fund International Henry Jackson, WB World Academy of Science and medicine, U.S. military deployment project "Research circulation rate of influenza A/H5N1 virus antibodies in the serum in Hanoi, Thua Thien Hue, Tien Giang. This is considered a good opportunity for Vietnam before the risk of outbreak of epidemics due to influenza A/H5N1 virus caused.

Risk of influenza A/H5N1 virus has transformed into a new flu vaccine

Prof. Trinh Quan Huan - Deputy Minister of Health said that the evolutions of avian and human flu increasingly widespread and sophisticated in the region and the world. He stressed: "There is no safety for the avian influenza. Each bird flu outbreak, cases per A/H5N1 influenza spread from birds to humans is a chance for influenza A/H5N1 virus strains turn, increases the risk of pandemic. "

Up to September 12, 2009, the World Health Organization recorded 444 cases of influenza A/H5N1, including 262 deaths in 15 countries. Particularly in Vietnam, in 2009, there were five cases and deaths. By Prof Nguyen Tran Hien, the complexity of the epidemic influenza A/H5N1 in that mix this with other types of flu. The results of epidemiological surveillance, testing in families of patients die closest (February 11/2009 at Dien Bien province) that influenza A/H5N1 virus in poultry and the family members of patients positive for influenza A/H1N1 patients mortality is also positive for influenza A/H5N1. In this context, experts epidemiology, infectious concerns the conversion of different types of influenza viruses are circulating as to appear a new influenza virus capable of spreading rapidly, and drug-resistant pathogenic higher. They also concern the conversion of influenza A/H5N1 virus in poultry to spread to humans more easily. Current National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology is the central control center with the infectious disease United States (CDC) study the relationship between influenza A/H5N1 and H1N1 viruses to deal with the risk of new influenza strains Two strains of this virus.

"Mu information" about the case of healthy people carry influenza A/H5N1 virus

By Prof Nguyen Tran Hien, Vietnam is the 2nd in the world for number of infected, death from influenza A/H5N1 but we still have many difficulties to control the epidemic, especially in the more dangerous the pandemic. Pathogen that is circulating quite common in poultry and aquatic birds, while the scale poultry small, empty drop still popular in our country. Translated influenza A/H5N1 outbreaks in poultry since 2003 until now spread to many cases but not in a study on the healing rate of the virus with no clinical symptoms, making the risk of spreading viruses in the community have not been detected. With breeding characteristics in rural areas is certainly not a small percentage of people living in the area exposed to H5N1 but healthy are not detected the disease. Mr. Show and share, quite a lot of cases not identified specific risk influenza A/H5N1 virus infection from poultry to people how.

Conducting research on large-scale influenza A/H5N1

The project "Research circulation rate of influenza A/H5N1 virus antibodies in the serum in Hanoi, Thua Thien Hue, Tien Giang" between the Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology Center and several medical research agency of the United States and the World Bank for funding more than 1.6 million, made in the last 12 months are considered important measures to resolve difficulties in the work of disease control at present for Vietnam and globally.

Prof Nguyen Tran Hien said that the objectives of the project is to identify influenza A/H5N1 virus infection rate in the serum in 3 people in local communities above the inhibitor stop technique and neutral red links immunity. Subjects studied 12,000 people from 7 years of age. This is a large-scale research in the world today. Serum samples will be stored in the environment-800C, then put on the Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology central testing and storage. The results obtained are reliable scientific evidence about the circulation of influenza virus strains, will help build policies and strategies for prevention of influenza appropriate and effective. Tracking the emergence of new strains of flu viruses will help create resources for the production of influenza vaccine annually. With 12,000 serum samples will become a bank the serum not only kept flu researchers but also many other pathologies.

Ms. Polly Sager - United States Institute of Health affirmed that the project objectives that will bring out the values important not only for prevention of influenza A/H5N1 in Vietnam but also international values. United States Institute of Health and experts microbiology, infectious of America will support the training and offer ideas needed, also will do all research scientists Vietnam undertook.

Research risk recombinant influenza among people with flu animals

TT - Dr. Maciej Boni, clinical research unit of the University of Oxford (UK), said so at the seminar on flu in Vietnam on 19-12.

According to Dr. Maciej Boni, A/H1N1/09 flu pandemic is causing the most number of lightly infected, but there is concern of pathogenic viruses can change through re-combination with other influenza virus . It is more than considerable concern in Southeast Asia, where high population density, less flu occur seasonally, contact between humans and animals occurs regularly and H5N1 are still circulating.

Dr. Maciej Boni left for to evaluate the risk of recombinant influenza virus A/H1N1/09 with animals and clinical studies unit of Oxford University developed a mathematical model track down school infections in people in who feed cattle and poultry in Vietnam. Can be estimated about 0.5 million pigs, a million ducks and four million chickens exposed to flu virus if there is a new recombinant between A/H1N1/09 with influenza virus strains in animals. :tiphat:http://www.tuoitre.com.vn/Tianyon/Index.aspx?ArticleID=354290&ChannelID=12

Cause the Ministry of Health announced the discovery of injury No. 90 from bird flu in a state of extreme anxiety and fear among many experts, amid expectations of many probability integration of avian influenza virus with swine and the formation of a new type of dangerous viruses.

And despite the announcement by the ministries of health and agriculture of the procedures and preventive and protective of the disease "birds and pigs," but that the emergence of case No. 90 bird flu puts everyone in front of a wave of questions about the situation is different for the disease this year than in the previous year, especially in the presence of swine influenza virus, as well as plans drawn up by the government to deal with this wave of viruses.

For its part, has not ruled out the Ministry of Health bird flu mutates and its transmission among humans, and has not ruled out also to be incorporated with the swine flu virus, saying it is taking all measures to control the situation before it happens this winter, which is the most dangerous in the face of viral influenza birds and pigs.

She stressed the Ministry of Health in a leaflet distributed to all hospitals that separation between each of the suspected of contracting bird flu from their counterparts with swine flu.

The ministry also announced the allocation of specific hospitals to receive and suspected cases of avian and swine influenza on the republic level, and confirmed in its publication The need for the doctors for fear of the merger or the formation of the Federation of viruses and a new type of dangerous viruses.
For his part, warned Dr. Hatem the Minister of Health of the settlers in direct contact with live birds, pointing to the gravity and ferocity of the bird flu virus, describing the most powerful to swine influenza virus to affect mortality rates.

He stressed the lack of mountain farming and handling live poultry in cities with tight control by vaccination in the countryside.

He announced the end of the mountain and the Ministry of Health to develop a national plan to deal with bird flu in the event of becoming a pandemic in collaboration with the Center for Epidemiology and surveillance of the department, referring to the lifting of the plan to both the WHO and the OIE and FAO International has been adopted.
The Ministry of Health attributed the cause of the emergence of new cases of bird flu at this time to the beginning of the winter season, the season of the spread of disease, especially that Egypt is the most important countries that settled by the virus.

The ministry has taken a series of actions and promised by the "mountain" in the plan of the new ministry to deal with the virus this winter in the forefront of a complete separation between each of the hospitals in birds and pigs, which examines both cases of suspicion and even disease, and are completely separated between each of the skilled staff for the treatment of both cases, either pigs or birds.

The ministry announced on the revitalization of the surveillance of contacts of the birds in all hospitals in addition to the formation of a strategic stockpile of Tamiflu, the processor of the mutated variants of avian flu and swine reached to 5 million packages in addition to the $ 5 million of the stuff of the drug.

For its part, the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation that it had so many campaigns for immunization of poultry farms nationwide to prevent the emergence of the disease which was confirmed by Dr. Saber Abdel Aziz, General Director of Preventive Medicine and an expert body of poultry veterinary services.

Abdul Aziz said the vaccinated birds in more than 20 counties nationwide during the past two months, with the beginning of the onset of winter, which showed the disease to spread.

Mr. Abdel Aziz to the situation this year different from last year, especially with the entry of swine influenza virus Egypt, warning of the danger of the integration of viral influenza with pigs and the formation of a new virus more dangerous.
He added that the authority has a comprehensive vaccination campaigns in 10 provinces, including western and northern Sinai, Minya and Eastern as well as campaigns against the governorates with the disease recently.

Zhejiang and Western Australia to cooperate to prevent a flow study how to stop an influenza pandemic

(2009-12-19 08:34:36) Source: Qianjiang Evening News

A flow of the virus in epidemic spread throughout the world, people can not help but worry: the vaccine prevention and control of a race with the virus mutates, who faster? Yesterday, reporters from the provincial disease prevention and control center was informed that, in order to prevent a flow of the virus with the mutation of bird flu virus and, in our province in cooperation with the Western Australia officially launched the "Improving emergency response capacity for an influenza pandemic," co-operation projects, through the exchange of the two sides together study how to contain the influenza pandemic.

CDC experts said yesterday in our province, the public is more concerned about a current topic of virus mutation, currently the world's experts are working on the directions. "A stream transmission of the virus SARS stronger capacity than three times the fatality rate can be relatively low, but the human bird flu fatality rate as high as 60.5%, mortality second only to rabies, if a stream of bird flu virus combines with human variation, dissemination Once the speed and the mortality rate increased on human health may be an even greater disaster. "province, Chen Zhi-ping, deputy director of CDC, told reporters.

It is understood that a flow of pop ago, our province and city have taken place between the spread of avian bird flu and input of human avian influenza, as appropriate treatment measures, did not result in epidemic outbreaks. A flow of a pandemic in the current circumstances, vigilance resurgence of bird flu virus combined with a flow of variation, it becomes critical.

Our province from the current influenza surveillance report points of view, not found in our province this year, people are infected with bird flu virus, A stream there is no variation in the province at present. Sino-Australian cooperation to improve emergency response capacity for an influenza pandemic co-operation for a period of one year, through the exchange flow and the prevention and control of human avian influenza A practice, experience, to boost its defense capabilities.

Infection Control Committee of Western Australia Paul introduced the prevention and control of Western Australia A stream of experience. Paul said that the current prevention and control of a flow is the best way to vaccinate populations in Australia, first ensure that vaccinated children over 4 years of age, pregnant women, over age 65 have underlying diseases of the elderly, and is the medical, public service personnel, etc. prevention and control strategies such as the current A flow of control more obvious contagious. There is also Australia's nutrition experts, coconut oil, anti-influenza effect was very good, people are advised to equal amounts of coconut oil, sesame oil and olive oil mixture kept in isolation from the air bottle, used for salads and other dishes of seasonings.

Experts say, according to the situation in our province influenza surveillance, more of China's central and western regions and the influenza situation in Western Australia will be out of a influenza pandemic, technical specification manuals to guide national prevention and control centers at all levels of disease control prevention and control of influenza. :tiphat:http://www.xinhuanet.com/chinanews/2009-12/19/content_18547959.htm

Tuesday, December 22, 2009, 2:32 (GMT +7)
(VNA) .- On 21-12, at the conference national influenza surveillance was held in Hanoi, Prof. Dr. Nguyen-Tran Hien, head of Hygiene and Epidemiology Institute Central said that the current situation of influenza A translation / H1N1 in Vietnam is complicated development.

Do health sector currently does not make the test more determined, so the number of infected influenza A/H1N1 is recognized not increase much. However, the monitoring results in 15 points to monitor key national rate of ca showed positive for influenza virus H1N1 is still high among the ca are positive for influenza and 90% were influenza A/H1N1.

For monitoring results also showed that influenza A/H5N1, from the beginning of the year the country had recorded 5 cases including 5 deaths were ca. The cause of this situation is detected by monitoring avian influenza in animals also poor, the sick often slow to health facilities after disease onset. Moreover, for hospitals under the working diagnosis of cases not in time to the delayed transfer of patients to upper level. Institute chief Nguyen Tran Hien warned, the current avian influenza A/H5N1 have been recurrent in some localities, plus the service influenza A/H1N1 has complicated development in humans, the risk of a combination of two strains This flu vaccine together to create a new flu virus more dangerous is high.

Statistics of the Ministry of Health showed that the country has over 11,000 influenza A/H1N1 infected, with 50 cases of death. Although this early next month, the number of infected influenza A/H1N1 has tended to reduce the number of disasters that increase weight and mortality remained high.

Department of Animal Health (MARD) has said, after spreading in Thai Nguyen province, the bird flu are spread in Cao Bang. Thus, there are three provinces where bird flu re-appears as Thai Nguyen, Cao Bang and Ca Mau.
While they receive from now until the New Year, the illegal import, transport, sale birds will take place very exciting, the other poultry prices increased again so the risk of H5N1 spreading service very high. Furthermore, in the North are with air conditioning, are favorable conditions for bird flu virus to develop. Therefore, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development asked localities to strictly control the poultry are livestock, managed trade, transport and prevent chickens smuggled into inland flooding to Home the response to avian influenza. :tiphat:http://www.sggp.org.vn/ytesuckhoe/2009/12/212752/

Expert Worries About Mutation of H1N1 Virus

The Chinese communist government, which has not made the real H1N1 epidemic status public, acknowledged that the core issue of global experts? concern is that the recombination and mutation of three virus species originating in humans, birds, and pigs might become a super flu.

Regarding the possibility of generation of a super flu, Sound of Hope (SOH) interviewed professor Su Ih-jen, former director of Center for Disease Control, R.O.C. (Taiwan).

Professor Su Ih-jen explained that H1N1 flu has a low mortality but high infectiousness, while H5N1 bird flu has low infectiousness but high mortality. If the two viruses recombined and mutated, that could cause a pandemic.

Su said, ?We are concerned if H1N1 will recombine with seasonal flu. The possible recombination of H5N1 and H1N1 viruses or a pandemic trend of bird flu is of great concern. The mortality rate of avian flu was as high as 60 percent, so Taiwan had to organize expert groups to survey and exchange information of bird flu through communication with Guangzhou, China, Thailand, Vietnam, and Hong Kong.?

Su also expressed that Asia will be the first victim in case of a new spread of bird flu since the virus already exists in poultry and birds in many Chinese cities.

He said: ?The bird flu has become epidemic in Southern China?s provinces and cities such as Fujian or Guangzhou, especially in local communities, spreading among chickens and ducks. About 3 percent of terrestrial or aquatic birds are carriers. Because of this, what WHO is concerned about, besides the H1N1 flu, is whether the H5N1 flu will become pandemic in the next few years.?

Su added that the diseases control system in Taiwan has improved after the SARS outbreak and that it can now monitor and help stop the spread of flu in Taiwan. Taiwan has controlled the spread of the H1N1 flu without applying the method of patient isolation in special hospitals that the mainland Chinese government has adopted. The H1N1 containment in mainland China is more expensive and time-consuming and increases the risk of contagion. Also, the Chinese communist regime has not published reasonable data of the H1N1 epidemic in China for international experts to evaluate.

He said: ?Taiwan has twelve labs. They can analyze reported cases in a few hours after they reported and send the reports to Taiwan government. We are very efficient in information management. In mainland China, there is no effective system to report H1N1 infections. Therefore international experts have not accepted the number of H1N1 flu cases officially reported by the mainland Chinese regime.?

The first case of death of the H5N1 virus, the agent responsible for the bird flu, came from Hong Kong.

H1N1 flu originally was a kind of swine influenza, caused by Type A influenza virus.:tiphat:http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/26834/

However, it is difficult to predict evolutions of service in the near future because of activities of influenza A/H1N1 virus has dominated the total number of cases of influenza virus, 85-96% of samples tested positive with influenza A/H1N1.

Meanwhile, the country is still three provinces of Ca Mau, Cao Bang, Thai Nguyen and avian influenza has 21 days so the risk of influenza A/H5N1 and services with recombinant influenza A/H1N1 was possible occur.

TS. Nguyen Huy Nga also said: In the past week, there are also 36 cases positive for influenza A/H1N1 cases and 2 deaths. Thus, up to 22-12 days, Vietnam has recorded 11,083 people infected with influenza A/H1N1 cases and 52 deaths.

Here, patients are given the test product samples, positive results for influenza A/H1N1. Immediately, the patient was assigned treatment oseltamivir, active resuscitation, respiratory support and cardiovascular disease but the situation does not improve, up to 3-12 days, patients die.

Second fatality is 52 male patients, 34 months old, in Vinh Phuc - Ba Dinh - Ha Noi. Patients with a history of bronchial asthma, nephrotic syndrome are treated by outpatient unit of the Central Children's Hospital. 1-12 days, patients appear fever, runny nose, the stomach, diarrhea, Diabetic less. 5-12 days, patients were taken to the examination and enter the Central Pediatrics Hospital in the state fatigue, shortness of breath, rapid breathing, heart shock, respiratory insufficiency ...

Here, patients treated active resuscitation, respiratory support in place internal control gas ventilation, cardiovascular support. 13-12 days, patients appear signs of pneumonia should be secondary products from test samples, positive for influenza A/H1N1 and specified using oseltamivir. In the course of treatment, patients are in very serious condition and 14-12 days, patients die.

22-12 days, the Minister of Health was also the Prime Minister of Planning and use of vaccine prevention of influenza A/H1N1 in Vietnam in 2009-2010 by the World Health Organization (WHO) aid:tiphat:http://www.sggp.org.vn/ytesuckhoe/cumah1n1/2009/12/212950/

Bird flu, two professors said Yoshihiro Kawaoka of the Institute of Medical Science, Tokyo University was easier to infect mammalian gene mutation locations are highly pathogenic "H5N1 type" of bird flu virus to two locations in the gene mutation, and human mammal ( lactation) was found to be easier between the kind of spread the infection. To monitor wild birds and chickens as bird flu virus, looking at the presence of this mutation was found to help assess the possibility of an outbreak.

Two grandchildren baby died of influenza A (H1N1)
Updated at: 10:55 AM, December 24, 2009
Besides continuous with deaths due to influenza A (H1N1), the health sector are concerned about the appearance of influenza A outbreak (H5N1) in poultry.

On November 23, at the meeting the Steering Committee National Prevention influenza pandemic in humans, Dr. Nguyen Huy Nga, Director of Department of Preventive Health and Environment, to continue warning about mortality due to influenza A (H1N1). Accordingly, mortality due to disease is high and difficult to get the service evolutions. In the past week, in Hanoi and Thanh Hoa have recorded two new three-year-old boy who died from influenza A (H1N1) bringing the total number of deaths from this disease to 52 ca. Both of these patients are treated at Children's Hospital Central in treatment guidelines influenza A (H1N1) is expressed as respiratory distress, but died of severe disease evolutions, think most viscera.

This is especially dangerous in the past week appeared more outbreaks influenza A (H5N1) in poultry in Thai Nguyen and Cao Bang, so the risk of a combination of two virus strains H1N1 and H5N1 strains constitute a new with high motivation is huge.

Related to vaccine influenza A (H1N1) Arepanrix the World Health Organization (WHO) funding for Vietnam, Nguyen Manh Cuong, deputy director of International Cooperation (Ministry of Health) said, in answer WHO vaccine is no absolute safety. The vaccine influenza A (H1N1) is licensed to use have side effects after vaccination (such as erythema at injection point 10%). Arepanrix added some nutrients to help increase the effectiveness of the vaccine should have a higher response rate. However, this vaccine has been used 23.4 million doses are being transported to nine other countries in the world. We have 20/80 countries sign WHO vaccine funding commitments (by the manufacturer and WHO is not responsible if complications occur or circumstances of death by injection of this vaccine).

According to Reuters, USA Today, agency managed the U.S. Food and Drug (FDA) said that the pharmaceutical company MedImmune is a voluntary withdrawal of a batch of vaccine influenza A (H1N1) because of insufficient effect as previously announced . Director of FDA vaccine research office said Norman Baylor, this time of recovery to 4.7 million doses of nasal spray by land, while just over 3,000 dosage has not allocated. However, the FDA affirmed that those who have no vaccination dose Monday. MedImmune said, all the lot items expire about 19 / 1 to January 26, 2010 are in the recovery area and should not be used.

Re: The H5N1/H1N1 Combo mix warning thread

Anxieties about the combination of influenza A (H1N1) and influenza A (H5N1)

-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
ND-Since the World Health Organization published the translated influenza A (H1N1) is far more than eight months, it continued to have complicated development and difficult to control. Situation translated influenza A (H1N1) in Vietnam and in the state.

Do health sector does not make the test more determined, so the number of infected influenza A (H1N1) recorded up no more. However, the monitoring results in 15 points to monitor key national shows the proportion of influenza positive with ca influenza A (H1N1) remains high. Addition, there are recorded deaths due to influenza A (H1N1). This service proved influenza A (H1N1) has spread in the community. Translated flu situation in our country as well as concern from the beginning of the year still appear scattered influenza A (H5N1) in poultry and in humans (there are five infected and death). Therefore, the epidemiology concerns the combination of two influenza virus strain A (H1N1) and influenza A (H5N1) strains to create a new virus spreading fast speed and high pathogenic.


Story of rooms, flu A (H1N1) or influenza A (H5N1) is not known when finished.


But not so that is ignored, subjective. If the service extends to the ability to combine higher. Health sector, the agency responsible for the care and protection of people's health needs have long-term measures to bring the computer to deal with translation. Epidemic prevention work in the direction of prevention than cure. Investment priorities both human and material resources available to cope with situations when translated. Organize the translation control at borders, as well as in the community early and take measures in time. Capacity building and monitoring at regular flu to closely monitor the situation of services in the community as well as signs of the GM virus.


The prevention of the health sector to keep the leading role, but need the active participation of sectors and localities to closely link. Each branch, each locality should also have specific plans to deal with the disease situation in general and influenza in particular. The prevention services not just stop at making plans but implementation is how the most effective. Has assigned, add responsibilities for each unit or individual specific.


Each person should raise awareness of disease prevention for themselves, family and society. As strict implementation of the recommendations of the health sector in prevention and influenza A (H1N1) in the community. All people, including outlying areas, in mountainous areas far if expressed influenza illness should think to influenza A (H1N1) and the right medical facility to be examined , treatment promptly. In the prevention influenza A (H5N1), increase control, control, not to translate influenza A (H5N1) in poultry, no close contact with sick birds died.


Whole community involved with successful implementation of measures to prevent and combat service, will certainly minimize the associated diseases in general and two influenza A (H1N1) and influenza A (H5N1) in particular. Thus, also limited the negative impact to the health of its people.
