43 more A(H1N1) cases reported in Thailand

BANGKOK, June 12 (TNA) - The number of A(H1N1) patients in Thailand continues to rise, with 43 new confirmed cased in the capital, Bangkok and major tourist destinations.

Dr. Prat Boonyawongvirot, director of the Influenza A(H1N1) Prevention Centre, announced the 43 new cases, bringing the total number in Thaialnd to 89. 37 of the flu patients were being treated in private hospitals in Bangkok, most of them having returned from abroad. One case was reported on the southern resort island of Phuket, one in the eastern seaside resort of Pattaya and one was International school student.

The confirmation of a university student as Thailand's 48th A(H1N1) patient prompted his faculty to announce a seven-day closure beginning Friday.


Earlier on Friday, another student from St. Gabriel's College in Bangkok contracted the A(H1N1) virus. The tutoring school the student attended over the weekend would also be closed to curb the spread of the flu.

Meanwhile, at a disease control checkpoint in Sa Kaeo province, a New Zealand tour guide was put under quarantine along with nine other people, after he was detected with a high fever. He was the first suspected A(H1N1) case in the eastern province which borders Cambodia.

The Public Health Ministry will continue stepping up measures in areas where spread of the virus has been reported. It hasalso asked the public not to panic but to adopt sanitary habits such as frequent hand washing and use of serving spoons.

The ministry assured there was enough antiviral drugs, while also ordering two million doses of A(H1N1) vaccine to be produced over the next four months and sent to Thailand in March 2010.

Thailand now has 105 suspected A(H1N1) cases under medical surveillance. (TNA)

TYPE-A (H1N1) INFLUENZA
Thai Swine-flu cases rise to 106
By THE NATION ON SUNDAY
Published on June 14, 2009

Seventeen pupils of a kindergarten in Pathum Thani province were yesterday confirmed to have the Type-A (H1N1) influenza, thus bringing Thailand's confirmed H1N1-virus patients to 106, a five-fold leap from Wednesday's 16.

Public Health Minister Witthaya Kaewparadai said that 17 of 50 kindergarten students whose virus samples were collected for testing on Friday had tested positive for H1N1.


"Altogether 106 swine-flu cases were confirmed today," Wittaya said, adding that academics said Thailand had the flu outbreak in some areas but they remained within a limited circle.

Nearly 100 more kindergarteners, many with fever, went for check-ups at Pathum Thani Hospital yesterday morning, while provincial governor Preecha Butsri had officials clean all schools in Muang district in a bid to stop the disease from spreading.

Wittaya said the ministry and medical experts had agreed to bring treatment in line with the latest updates, especially in the matter of anti-viral medication, which would now be given only to those in need to prevent drug resistance.
This will be notified to all doctors nationwide on Tuesday, he said. The ministry also suggested the general public take care not to fall ill and that businesses and schools send sick employees and students home rather than closing their premises. For details, go to www.moph.go.th.

Deputy Permanent Secretary for Public Health Dr Paijit Warachit said that besides the 17 new confirmed cases, lab confirmations were pending on a Mahidol Univ-ersity student and patients in Ratchaburi and Roi Et.


Citing the latest WHO report that there have been 29,669 cases in 74 countries and 145 deaths, he said that Thailand had 106 cases and most of those affected had recovered.

Dr Tawee Chotepita-yasunon, who chairs the ministry's influenza academic team, said the Thai situation was at level B, an outbreak in a limited circle with only 10-15 patients to a group, but that it was expected that the situation would be upgraded in one month to level C, extensive outbreaks as seen in the US, the UK and Japan.

The public must be told the virus is not dangerous and only 10 per cent of people exposed to it fall ill and 0.01 per cent die, mostly those with previous medical problems, he said.

Bangkok Governor MR Sukhum-bhand Paribatra yesterday said the city's 435 schools would be cleaned yesterday and today while teachers at kindergarten and primary levels were instructed to watch their pupils carefully as they were of the age most at risk.

He said there was no need to close all schools.


Urging city residents not to panic about this curable disease, he said a meeting of representatives of schools, tutorial academies, hospitals and shopping malls would be held tomorrow at 1pm at the JJ Mall to achieve a better understanding of the new flu and how to prevent an outbreak.

Meanwhile, the crew of any Thai Airways International flight will be grounded for seven days for monitoring if a passenger tests positive, a senior THAI official said yesterday.

Surapol Isarakura na Ayutthaya, head of crisis management at THAI, said this would ensure the crew did not pass on the virus. Flight crew of flights returning from risk countries will also be required to undergo check-ups at the Bamrasnaradu Infectious Disease Institute, he said.

H1N1 FLU PANDEMIC

Thailand's flu cases triple

BANGKOK - THAILAND'S swine flu cases tripled over the last three days to 150, with more expected as laboratory test results continue to arrive, a health official said on Sunday.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva urged the public not to panic, but warned that 'it's not an easy fix' with tens of thousands of passengers arriving daily at airports from abroad.


'Definitely it will affect tourism, but I still think it's better to be transparent,' he said on his weekly television programme on Sunday. 'Trying to conceal what's happening will only makes things worse.'

The number of cases in Thailand jumped from 47 on Friday to 106 on Saturday.

'We have found 150 confirmed H1N1 cases as of today,' Dr Prat Boonyavongvirot, permanent secretary of the Public Health Ministry, said Sunday.

'They are not new cases, but we just got laboratory confirmation from patients' samples we took earlier,' he said. 'More lab test results are coming, so we expect the number to continue to rise in the next few days.'

Most of the patients were living in the capital, Bangkok, and had recently returned from trips abroad, Dr Boonyavongvirot said. Schools reported the most concentrated cases.

There have been no reported deaths from the disease in Thailand, which the World Health Organisation declared a pandemic on Thursday.

The WHO says 74 countries have reported nearly 30,000 cases of swine flu, including 145 deaths.

The health ministry said Thailand has 420,000 courses of anti-viral medicine on hand and can produce another 100,000 within one month. -- AP

Thailand's H1N1 cases hit 201, likely to spread nationwide


Posted : Mon, 15 Jun 2009

Bangkok - Thai health officials acknowledged Monday that the number of H1N1 cases had reached 201, and the virus was likely to spread nationwide.

From only 16 reported H1N1 cases on June 10, the number had jumped to 201 over the weekend, Health Ministry spokesman Suphan Srikamma told reporters.

While the majority of the 201 cases were limited to Bangkok, people suffering from swine flu have also been detected in popular tourist destinations such as Pattaya, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Songkhla and Trang.

Health Minister Witthaya Kaewparadai on Monday warned that the new influenza virus could spread nationwide by next month.

While warning health officials to be on the alert, he urged the public not to panic since the disease is curable.

There has been no recorded H1N1 fatality to date in Thailand.
About a dozen schools and colleges have been closed in Bangkok after students fell sick.

Chairman of the ministry's influenza academic team Doctor Tawee Chotepita-yasunon said Thailand's status of the H1N1 pandemic was at level B, or an outbreak limited to groups of 10-15 patients.

But it was expected the situation would be upgraded next month to level C, with a more extensive outbreak.

Thailand confirms 109 new (A) H1N1 cases

BANGKOK, June 16 (TNA) - Thailand's Ministry of Public Health on Tuesday confirmed 109 new Influenza A (H1N1) diagnoses, raising the country?s total number of cases to 310.

Deputy Minister of Public Health Manit Nopamornbodhi urged the public not to over-react to the rising number of new infections. He said the number of H1N1 cases is still much less than that of normal flu patients, estimated at about 17,400 cases in 2008.

?The Public Health Ministry has discussed with related-agencies laying out preventive measures and treatment. Not all H1N1 patients need special medication, but another level of treatment will be provided to risk-group patients,? the minister said.

The at-risk group patients are the elderly, children at a very young age and patients with certain congenital diseases.

Mr. Manit added that the ministry will distribute one million handbooks with instructions for the public to protect themselves from the new virus to Thai people across the nation in the next few days.

Meanwhile, Dr. Prat Boonyawongviroj, Permanent Secretary for Public Health, said that the Influenza Type A (H1N1) has lowest rate of fatality at 0.5 per cent, compared to 60 per cent death rate of the bird flu, and 80 per cent of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).

Dr. Prat said that, as with seasonal common flu, H1N1 patients can heal themselves with sufficient rest and water consumption, but that anti-viral drugs will be given to those who suffer chronic or congenital diseases.

He added that the number of H1N1 patients in Thailand will reach the highest level in July which is the rainy season. (TNA)

24 provinces now have typeA (H1N1) flu cases

Published on June 20, 2009

The Public Health Ministry yesterday said 24 provinces had now reported cases of typeA (H1N1) influenza, which has caused 589 people in Thailand to fall ill since April.

The ministry reported 71 new confirmed cases, 11 of which are undergoing treatment in hospital. None of the hospitalised cases has severe symptoms.


It also reported that Bangkok was the hardesthit area with 349 reported cases to date, followed by Nonthaburi (82), Pathum Thani (63), Chon Buri (30), Samut Prakan (27), Nakhon Pathom (eight), Phuket (four) and Chiang Mai (two).


The Public Health Ministry's deputy permanent secretary, Dr Paijit Warachit, said 70 schools and nine universities had reported cases of typeA (H1N1) infection.


"So far, we have found that most of the infected people are students," he said.


He added that the ministry would collaborate with the Education Ministry in an attempt to control the spread of the disease among students.


The World Health Organisation reported that 39,620 cases people had now been infected with the flu virus, and that 167 of them had died.


There have been no fatalities reported in Thailand.


In a bid to allay public fears over the spread of the virus, Public Health Minister Witthaya Kaewparadai yesterday said he had ordered provincial health officers and health volunteers across the country to disseminate information about how to prevent infection, such as wearing a face mask and frequently washing one's hands.


He said the new flu virus had a low severity and mortality rate. Those with mild symptoms should stay at home and take feverreducing medicine. This should enable them to recover within seven days, as well as minimise the spread of the flu to others.


Patients with severe symptoms - the vomiting of green mucus, running a temperature of at least 38 degrees Celsius, chest pain and body aches - should immediately seek medical attention at a nearby hospital, he said.


Antiviral drugs such as oseltamivir will only be prescribed for those with severe illness. If they are under the care of a physician, treatment results are generally effective, said the minister.
