Guangzhou City, 20 schools have been reported cases of Influenza A H1N1 influenza, the fall semester is approaching, a new flu epidemic will peak? Chinese Medical Association, the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Zhong Nanshan, an interview yesterday, said: "The laws of influenza in general more than one peak, there will be second, third, and so the fall may well usher in a new heights."
Zhong Nanshan, analysts pointed out that China began in April from 4-June A stream can be considered a peak for the first 7-August due to holidays, students gathered fewer cases to reduce the mainland, but Hong Kong is no such decline The number of cases has been increasing. "WHO has a warning for a stream, we need to prepare for the worst, it may be the incidence of new heights."
Media attention after the first case of severe cases in Guangzhou, Zhong Nanshan, are still in the work of the Guangzhou Institute of respiratory therapy. Zhong Nanshan said, this flu cases have been cured, but because the basis for congenital heart disease, heart stopped for too long, irreversible brain damage has occurred, the prognosis is not optimistic.
The good news is that cases of severe disease from Guangzhou, who removed the name of the virus samples showed that genetic analysis shows that the virus has not mutated, virulence has not increased, the specific drug Tamiflu to combat influenza infection is still sensitive, and no tolerance .
Zhong Nanshan noted that existing studies have found that influenza A H1N1 influenza virus titer in about a week after the infection began to decline slowly, the patient gradually produce antibodies, while in the case fatality rate as high as 60% of the H5N1 bird flu viral titers in about two weeks after the fall, so many of the latter drug strong. "H5N1 highly lethal, H1N1 is highly infectious and is hard to predict whether it will happen between the two mixed."
A stream in Guangzhou Many patients with mild to home isolation and treatment, and how to determine who can home treatment, which patients need to taken to the hospital? Zhong Nanshan said that if patients are also associated with other underlying diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, diabetes and so on, must be hospitalized. The elderly, pregnant women, children, will depend on individual circumstances, "many children are mild cases, do not use age to judge whether it is necessary to hospital treatment, but rather look at the basis of the patient's situation."
At present the progress of vaccine development? Zhong Nanshan said the ongoing Phase I safety trials, preliminary studies have shown that a stream be effective in preventing the first Phase I trials have already produced antibodies has not yet noticed side effects.
