Now specific information is as follows:

            First, the country and the province epidemic situation

            Province one case diagnosed patients were male, 50 years old, currently residing in net Development Zone in Changchun, poultry farming. 15 February disease, 15 -19 days has received treatment in the Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital Emergency Department, Department of Infectious Diseases and Respiratory Medicine, 17-18 in the opening seven district xiaoheyan by intravenous therapy clinics.

            At 17:40 on the 19th into Kyrgyzstan freshman hospital quarantine treatment, the current condition is more stable.

            Second, the prevention and control work carried out

            Provincial government leaders attach great importance to human infection with H7N9 bird flu prevention and control work, the main leaders repeatedly made important instructions, and organize a special meeting. Suidian Jun, director, song, wins deputy inspector always adhere to the front command, epidemic prevention and control work for the province to make a comprehensive plan to ensure that the prevention and control of solid work, put in place.

            After the epidemic, the provincial CDC attaches great importance to the front line, the top command, work is meticulous, thoughtful and rigorous, Changchun City, two health district administrative departments and the CDC strong leadership, command properly, rapid response. Disease control institutions at all levels to work the first time to start emergency procedures, prevention and control work on a comprehensive plan, organize personnel rushed to the scene to verify the epidemic, collecting patient specimens, to carry out laboratory tests for the timely detection of outbreaks provides a scientific basis. From February 19 to receive the epidemic reporting confirmed cases, in less than two days time, the prevention and control work in an orderly manner, the patient's condition has been effectively controlled, at present, the patient's 68 close contacts have all investigation in place, and implemented measures under medical observation at home, there are 32 medical observation in close contact with the lifting of measures, and the remaining 36 per capita found no abnormalities.

Second, the cases occurred has shown a tendency to expand further, east, south most provinces, Beijing and the province have an outbreak, do not rule out further expansion of the epidemic trends. Third, higher disease mortality, deaths across the country, the proportion of reported cases accounted for about 30%. Fourth, a higher proportion of severe cases, other provinces in the vast majority of hospitalized cases of severe or critically ill patients. Five cases of exposure and infection patterns are no significant changes, still live or live poultry exposed to the main business market. After December 2013, reported cases outside the local environment H7N9 avian influenza virus positive rate compared with the previous increase.

Second, with the depth of our province epidemic prevention and control work, the unexplained cases of pneumonia, influenza cases increased monitoring efforts, could not be ruled out that more people infected with H7N9 bird flu cases. Third, workers back to the city at a time when the peak of the provinces, major colleges and universities are also expected to school, students return to school immediately ushered peak, there is a risk of imported cases. Four are currently Dongmochunchu is a high incidence of respiratory diseases season, climatic conditions suitable for the survival and spread of the influenza virus, do not rule out some areas will continue to see sporadic cases, or even clusters of cases possible.
