Ministries of Health and Agriculture to dilute the importance of the report of the Research Unit U.S. NAMRU-3...And confirm that the bird flu virus constantly mutating

الإثنين، 10 مايو 2010 - 08:31 New report made public by the laboratories of the Research Unit, U.S. NAMRU-3 of the U.S. Navy detected viral sequences in cases of bird flu, "h5n1" similar to the characteristics of seasonal influenza virus transmitted between humans, fears of the spread of the virus.

He warned against Mohammed Saif, a veterinary professor at the University of Beni Suef the seriousness of the integration of the avian influenza virus seasonal influenza, which could result in a new strain of influenza, pointing out that the most dangerous accelerant "comes from the seasonal flu, which kills more than 500 thousand persons in the world and added sword seasonal influenza the most common types of influenza infection and killing of human beings, while bird flu is the fastest species killing of human beings.

The sword that there has been a significant overlap between the viral flu h1n1 influenza, seasonal flu, but it did not happen, but the gravity would be the most dangerous in the event of avian mating with seasonal influenza, which has not happened yet.

Has reduced the ministries of agriculture and health significance of the coefficient of the Research Unit of America, asserted that the Veterinary Services of the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation that the changes that occur the avian influenza virus, whether of birds or of human permanent occurrence is the virus constantly mutating, according to Dr. Saber Abdel Aziz, general manager of of the epidemics in poultry.

And Abdel-Aziz, mutations that have occurred in the virus led to reduced mortality to 10% only, indicating that the mutations in the isolated avian normal and does not mean the virus will mutate into a virus a human being.

The Ministry of Health confirmed that the influenza virus is a virus mutation permanent and always active genetic variability from time to time have already been registered HIV many genetic changes, which earned him the changes in the activity.


The ministry said in a statement that the discovery of the laboratories of the Research Unit, U.S. NAMRU-3, of U.S. Navy in Egypt sequences of viral cases of bird flu flu (H5N1) similar to the characteristics of seasonal influenza virus transmitted among humans, they discovered an old reference to the end of the past year has been declared out in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, which was recorded on all the infected cases of bird flu and swine.

Have reached NAMRU-3 to sub-sequences HA and NA in the cases examined in Egypt, and found that it included one of the specifications of existing seasonal influenza virus and transmitted between humans, which indicates that this capacity is becoming a constant in the virus in Egypt.

The study had been conducted earlier indicated the existence of similarities between the H5N1 and H1N1 seasonal influenza leading to increased fears about HIV transmission among people, especially those cases that contained one of the genetic traits which were found in cases that have been examined.

The NAMRU-3 is working with the Egyptian Ministry of Health in the analysis of samples suspected of being infected with influenza viruses present.
