Alert, Bird Flu Could Infectious human #H5N1 #BIRDFLU

Alert, Bird Flu Could Infectious human

TEMPO.CO, Surabaya - Master of Science Institute of Medicine, University of Tokyo, Yoshirio Kawaoka, said the H5N1 bird flu virus has mutated so that they can antarmamalia or transmitted between humans.
According to him, or mutation of this coalition is more dangerous than ever before, which is transmitted from animals to humans. In addition because it can be transmitted between humans, he worried about the new virus mutation that would be difficult to treat. "But the virus mutated to infect humans would be easy," he said in an international seminar on bird flu at Airlangga University Research Hospital, Surabaya, East Java, yesterday.

Kawaoka explains, although studies of the mutation of bird flu virus in Japan, there is a possibility that the same thing happened in Indonesia, which incidentally has not been cleared of H5N1 virus attack.
Director of Disease Control Ministry of Health Animal Sourced Rita Kusriastuti expect mutation of bird flu virus in Japan not to spread to Indonesia. If the spread is the case, could be "doomsday" virus because it would take many human casualties. "A country can be destroyed, and it could cause a 'doomsday'," he said when contacted.

He explained the spread of bird flu from human to human had occurred in 1915 and 1930 in Europe. As a result, many deaths have sparked a number of state economic paralysis. "Learning from there, it must be vigilant," said Rita.

He said the ministry was right in doing prevention. But Rita refused to respond to the possible emergence of bird flu virus mutated. But he said they were optimistic the bird flu virus mutation results will not enter Indonesia as long as there are no parties who deliberately took him to Indonesia. Rita also hoped scientists studying bird flu in Indonesia prohibited the presentation.

On the prevention of human transmission of bird flu, Kawaoka said, Indonesia could emulate Japan and Korea, by destroying all the infected animals or potentially infected by virus.. "It must be carried out eradication," he said.

Winariadi, from Unair Research Hospital, explains, in Indonesia, during 2005-March 2012, the H5N1 virus has infected 187 people."As many as 155 of them died," he said. According to him, the major spread of the virus occurs at the individual farm. The large farms usually continue to monitor and administer the vaccine.

Nidom, said the government should immediately opted to keep poultry or human life. Maintain the animals is done by providing vaccinations, while saving destroy all humans with infected animals or potentially exposed. He believes the vaccine could make H5N1 virus mutate and coalesce with other viruses that are becoming increasingly dangerous. Nidom pointed out that Thailand has left the system to move to the eradication vaccination (extermination).
