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. [Edit: Original Sentence: Lường Văn Chựa, bản Pánh, xã Thanh LuôngLường Thị Lau, bản Xa Cuông, xã Pa Thơm đều dương tính với cúm 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 "khoái 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).

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.

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

Post #23 (dated today):
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:...

From article dated 12/7:
Promote prevention influenza A (H5N1) in humans
9:52 'July 12, 2009 [edit 12/7]

Before the complicated development of the situation translated influenza A (H1N1) and influenza A (H5N1) in the province, Steering Committee for Prevention disease in humans have been assigned tasks to members to monitor the prevention and control services, especially bird flu after the Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology Central results confirm the death of patients infected by influenza A (H5N1).

Immediately after receiving information about the disease situation, the Department of Health (permanent agency Steering Committee Preventing disease in humans) have an emergency meeting Steering Committee's progress against industry, assigning specific tasks to each units the same time directing preventive health center, Medical Center of Dien Bien spray disinfectant, environmental treatment in the two patients with suspected infection and influenza A infection (H5N1) reside. Department of Agriculture - Rural Development Steering Sub-Department of Animal Health continue to investigate the epidemiological situation in the province of Dien Bien district and surrounding area to determine existing levels of saving bird flu virus in the environment.

According to Pham Duc Hien, Director of the Department of Agriculture - Rural Development: After publication all avian influenza in the province of Dien Bien district from November 20, specialized units under the Department continues to take form on family on post test at the center of Central Veterinary Diagnostic and results were negative for influenza A virus (H5N1). This is the basis for determining avian influenza are under control and prevention of disease in poultry have been good in some establishments. However, in disease control in poultry, the ability to prevent disease spread from birds to humans and among humans, the agriculture sectors - rural development is facing enormous pressure, while the service still has flu risk of further outbreaks in the province.

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

The translator makes things difficult to read, but my take on that last post is that there were two fatal ARI cases in the same general area, and they both returned negative H5N1 test results.

Does anyone agree with me?

Edit: OK. I am confused. I don't think they have test results yet on the other two - they are just suspected fatalities for now. But I'm not sure what their relation to the confirmed case is (or if there even is one).
 
Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

alert, I agree these translations are hard to understand. But after you read enough of them...you get a feel for them.

I think the article in Post #23, is saying that upon investigation immediately after the confirmed H5N1 death, that 3 other people were suspected of H5N1:

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.

Now, December 14th, they report this:
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.

I think it is saying the sample from the birds of two families of patients that died from acute respiratory failure but that they were suspected of H5N1. And that the birds have tested positive for H5N1.

Treyfish had earlier spotted an article that mentioned two suspected cases of H5N1 affiliated with this confirmed case.
And my post (#24) of December 7th, reaffirms that:

Immediately after receiving information about the disease situation, the Department of Health (permanent agency Steering Committee Preventing disease in humans) have an emergency meeting Steering Committee's progress against industry, assigning specific tasks to each units the same time directing preventive health center, Medical Center of Dien Bien spray disinfectant, environmental treatment in the two patients with suspected infection and influenza A infection (H5N1) reside.

Remember this is December 7th...

It is known that sub-department of Animal Health and Preventive Medical Center of the province will coordinate the implementation of epidemiological surveys on the poultry samples and those in direct contact with patients died of infection and suspected infection because virus influenza A (H5N1) to send Central Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology diagnostic tests. Simultaneously continue to implement the samples from patients with suspected influenza A infection (H5N1) in the region has no cases to be processed in time direction.

I believe the two suspected cases died, were diagnosed as "acute respiratory failure"..and that's all we may ever hear.

This is just my opinion. ;)

Man (23) from ward Sam Min, the city of Dien Bien, dies on November 28 and tests positive for H5N1. Family birds test positive for H5N1.

Events & Comments
Not subjective to the epidemic
DBP - Du Comment is interested in information on recently from the epidemiological alert virus risk influenza A / H1N1 could combine with an influenza A/H5N1 virus strains especially dangerous unpredictable. This warning comes from the case of male patients 23 years old, residing in Sam Mun commune, Dien Bien death after eating soup thousands more. Test results positive for influenza A/H5N1. Patients die from avian influenza infection causes pneumonia, acute respiratory failure.At the same time there are many ca influenza A/H1N1 infection in the area, so the warning about the risk of viruses can combine to create a variant of the virus is more dangerous than base. However, this is pure speculation for us to improve the prevention and alert Dinh, also an information channel is very important to anticipate all the evolutions worst can happen. :tiphat:http://www.baodienbienphu.info.vn/
 
Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

- Man dies in Sam Mum. Confirmed H5N1
- 2 People die of suspected H5N1, in Thanh Luong & Pa Thom -
......diagnosis: Acute Resp.
- their poultry have H5
-Health Dept. makes list and monitors people exposed to 3 patients w/suspected H5

Does this sound about right?

The sample taken from poultry family two patients died from acute respiratory failure suspected 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.

Check poultry are raised by families of patients dying from influenza A/H5N1 first at Sam Mun, and patients with suspected influenza A/H5N1 death in Thanh Luong and Pa Thom (Dien Bien) results show: poultry are infected with influenza A/H5N1.

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 the sauce over 380C, with clinical manifestations of respiratory inflammation long will treatment, isolation, avoiding the spread cumA/H5N1 community.

Beware of avian influenza H5N1 (December 14, 2009)

Localized, handling the outbreak, clean environment, not to avian influenza spread to humans

Department of Health has requested a dispatch units active in the industry, increased deployment of preventive measures progress H5N1, is not spread person to translate.



Winter-Spring, Special occasions before and after the Lunar New Year period HPAI active, causing services on poultry. The North has recorded scattered progress on H5N1 poultry; a local discovered serious cases of influenza A/H5N1 pneumonia in humans. Department of Health asked the provincial Preventive Health Center to the districts, towns and cities to coordinate with local veterinary science grasp the situation promptly translated influenza A/H5N1 in poultry; Strengthening supervision and early ca suspected of H5N1 infection in humans, localized in time, handling the outbreak.



Hospital to prepare a full online facilities, equipment, medicines, manpower to collect dung, isolation, treatment of human influenza A/H5N1; strictly followed the regulations of professional (usually members, emergency, diagnostic Assembly, experts), the regulations on medical waste treatment ... In particular, for cases of severe pneumonia should be taken product samples, determine disease diagnosis, avoiding thoughts subjective, minimize mortality of patients. :tiphat:http://www.baobacninh.com.vn/?page=news_detail&id=65347&category_id=12601&portal=baobacninh

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

Re: Vietnam - Dien Bien province, 23 year old died of H5N1 + other dead suspected patients with respiratory failure

so his cousin died from h5:confused:

Maybe "cousin" is a wrong word. Perhaps the word should be some kind of poultry?

Or maybe a body part? It seems the tests on the "cousin" confirmed the original case. Perhaps "cousin" should be "sample" or "phlegm" or "blood" or something of that nature?

But for some reason, the "cousin" is located in a different city. Very odd.

You would think we would have heard a lot more if a relative of his had died as well (or for that matter any other confirmed H5N1 case).

Perhaps there is a typo in the article. The article mentions the threat of H1N1 as well. Perhaps this sentence is a reference to the mild H1N1 case of a family member that was reported elsewhere.
