    United Evening News / 2009/08/22

    School has been less than two weeks away , Academia Sinica, the former Health and Chen Chien-jen to remind the Government must take precautions to prevent infection in school clusters, and accurate grasp of the drug Tamiflu, the timing, or else escape the epidemic crisis. He warned that if no effective control of the epidemic, six months to a year that is one-tenth of the population were infected.

    In response, the Department of Health Deputy Secretary for Disease Control, Lin Ting considered feasible because the current National Health Insurance has paid the Tamiflu and incorporate it into the project, as long as doctors have found patients with the clinical diagnosis of persistent fever, respiratory distress typical symptoms of influenza and other new , you can direct drugs to fight aging.

    Chen Chien-jen said that, from the Department of Health Disease Control Bureau of Statistics show that the number of influenza-informed one week early in July 1000 by the people, by the end of July to the six thousand people, and then soaring to the current ten thousand people at in the display in the fast-rising epidemic, and the virus has spread in the community, not terminated.

    He judged the future of the epidemic development may move two directions, first, slow the epidemic spread in the next 2,3 years, one tenth of the population has been infected; the other is unable to obtain effective control of the epidemic, that is, within six months to a year one-tenth of the population was infected, and cause disease, and medical urgency.

    Chen Chien-jen most worried about is that less than two weeks of the school opening soon, cluster infection events may occur a month or even per week will occur 2,3 million cases of influenza-informed, to the time to judge what people have been infected? What people need to take Tamiflu? Who will take another injection of the vaccine? Is a major project.

    He suggested that the Government be ready as early as possible in response to infection cluster approach to strengthen the screening efficiency, and that the best medication time. If there is a class of 10 students suspected novel influenza emerged clinical symptoms, which have a definite diagnosis and the remaining nine do not have to do testing, you can first dosage to avoid spread of the epidemic.
