Warn against AH3N2 flu outbreak
The Network of Scientific Societies warned of the increased number of cases of AH3N2 influenza in recent weeks. The patients have the same symptoms of H1N1 flu, but with greater virulence. The swine flu virus began circulating in 2009, when it declared the H1N1 pandemic. The Epidemiological Alert Network number 216 indicates a spike in cases between epidemiological weeks 38 and 46. Of 150 cases rose to 345 reports. Epidemiologist Jose Felix Oletta, network member, said that while the Ministry of Health reported three weeks ago on the increase of reports, has not campaigned to prevent proliferation. He added that the population most susceptible to the virus are the elderly, pregnant women, children and chronically ill. "When you look at the virus subtype H1N1 is reported for 3, but there are 171 cases for AH3N2 and that is a figure far too high. The government recognized the problem 21 days ago, but did not give due importance, "he said. The Ministry of Health published in the Epidemiological Bulletin No. 46, for the week of 12 to 19 November, the largest number of cases recorded in the Capital District and Miranda. The report was met on December 2. "Influenza can strike people susceptible fetuses, patients with underlying diseases, the elderly and children, therefore we can not lower our guard. We must remind people of basic preventive measures greeting and how to protect yourself when you cough because it is a contagious disease, "said Oletta. The doctor explained that the symptoms are similar to the AH3N2 virus that caused the 2009 pandemic . Generally those affected have severe headache, high fever, chills and aches; 24 hours for symptoms of respiratory infection, such as runny nose, cough that lasts for several days and weakness. It recommended that in the presence of symptoms you ask your doctor to prevent the spread of other people in the environment. Avoid self-medication. Oletta stressed that the Yanomami population in the Amazon, has also detected a surge of patients from influenza. Epidemiological Surveillance Bulletin of the Pan American Health Organization published on November 29 reported eight members of this community syndrome and other acute respiratory infection with pneumonia 9
