Phillipines-CHEd postpones opening of classes

Moves start to June 15 due to flu virus threat
Universities urged to upgrade sanitation facilities

The Commission on Higher Education (CHEd) announced yesterday that the opening of classes for colleges and universities would be postponed for a week due to concerns on the looming threat of Influenza A (H1N1) in the country.

Chairman Emmanuel Angeles of CHEd said classes will open on Monday, June 15, instead of June 8. Other colleges and universities reset their classes opening to June 16 and 17.

The CHEd’s decision to reset the opening of classes followed the confirmation of Influenza A cases on three students, two of them Japanese nationals, of De La Salle University (DLSU) on Taft Ave., Malate, Manila. De La Salle officials cancelled classes in its main campus as it imposed a ten-day quarantine or up to June 14.

Angeles said the postponement of classes will enable the students, especially those coming from abroad, ample time to check on their health and go on self-quarantine in case of any symptoms of the virus.

Three universities in Metro Manila earlier reset the opening of their classes. The University of Santo Tomas (UST) and University of the Philippines – Manila (UP-M) campus moved their classes opening from June 8 to June 15 while Far Eastern University reset its opening to June 17.

The Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila (PLM) in Intramuros also reset the opening of classes to June 15 as university officials prepared also for the city university’s 44th foundation day celebration on June 18 and 19 with former President Fidel V. Ramos leading the guests.

The Department of Health has reported 33 swine flu cases, but all have shown mild symptoms, according to Health Secretary Francisco T. Duque III. The country has the most number of swine flu cases in Southeast Asia according to the World Health Organization.

Angeles said that CHEd is coordinating closely with the Department of Health in monitoring the country’s schools, most especially DLSU’s situation. "Our colleges and universities have many foreign students who are coming from different countries that have swine flu victims," Angeles said.

As this developed, Vice President Noli De Castro said that schools which postponed the opening of their classes due to the threat of influenza A(H1N1) should invest in procuring sanitation products such as hand sanitizers or hand wash and place them in their comfort rooms for the protection of the students.

"After the suspension of their classes, how can they be sure that the threat, the virus, will go away," De Castro said.

The pronouncement came after several top schools in Metro Manila announced that they will postpone the opening of classes after the confirmation of cases of infection of the influenza A(H1N1) virus involving students of De La Salle University.

These schools include University of Asia and the Pacific (UAP), St. Paul University Manila, UST and FEU.

"Students and employees who recently went abroad for summer vacation are advised to go on self-quarantine for 10 days and to visit their personal doctors if influenza-like symptoms manifest within this period," said the UAP.

The UAP clarified, however, that "at present, we have no reported case of Influenza A(H1N1) virus among our students and employees. We took merely as a precaution."

St. Paul University Manila, in a separate statement, said that its president Wynna Marie A. Medina announced the postponement of the opening of classes to June 16.

"The postponement has been decided upon to give the university a chance to set precautionary measures in place," it said.

St. Paul University said that enrolment in the university would continue, and that employees are expected to report for work despite the postponement of opening of classes.

Japan explores using cell phones to stop pandemics

Jun 6, 8:16 PM EDT By JAY ALABASTER Associated Press Writer

TOKYO (AP) -- A few months from now, a highly contagious disease will spread through a Japanese elementary school. The epidemic will start with several unwitting children, who will infect others as they attend classes and wander the halls. If nothing is done, it will quickly gain momentum and rip through the student body, then jump to parents and others in the community. But officials will attempt to stymie the disease and save the school - using mobile phones. The sickness will be a virtual one, in an experiment funded by the Japanese government. A subsidiary of Softbank Corp., a major Japanese Internet and cellular provider, has proposed a system that uses phones to limit pandemics. The exact details have yet to be fixed, but Softbank hopes to pick an elementary school with about 1,000 students and give them phones equipped with GPS. The locations of the children will be recorded every minute of the day and stored on a central server. A few students will be chosen to be considered "infected," and their movements over the previous few days will be compared with those of everyone else. The stored GPS data can then be used to determine which children have crossed paths with the infected students and are at risk of having contracted the disease. The families of exposed students will be notified by messages to their mobile phones, instructing them to get checked out by doctors. In a real outbreak, that could limit the rate of new infections. "The number of people infected by such a disease quickly doubles, triples and quadruples as it spreads. If this rate is decreased by even a small amount, it has a big effect in keeping the overall outbreak in check," said Masato Takahashi, who works on infrastructure strategy at Softbank. He demonstrates with a calculation: If an infected person makes about three more people sick per day, and each newly infected person then makes another three people sick, on the 10th day about 60,000 people would catch the disease. If each sick person instead infected two people a day, on the 10th day about 1,000 people would get sick. The experiment was conceived before the current outbreak of swine flu, but has drawn fresh attention now that Japan has the highest number of confirmed cases outside of North America. It is one of 24 trials the government recently approved as part of a program to promote new uses for Japan's Internet and cellular infrastructure. The country boasts some of the most advanced mobile phone technology in the world. It is blanketed in high-speed cellular networks, and phones come standard with features like GPS, TV and touchless train passes. The mobile phone market is largely saturated, however, and fees are being driven down by an ongoing price war. For Softbank, a government-backed health-monitoring service could be boon to business. GPS has its shortcomings, including hazy readings indoors. But Softbank believes it could keep readings accurate to several yards, at least for an experiment in a limited area. Until now, technologies like GPS have mainly been used to help people figure out where they are and what is nearby. As networked devices like the iPhone become more popular, new applications let people track their children or friends, and could give companies and governments access to their location. Aoyama Gakuin University, a prestigious school in Tokyo, is giving Apple Inc.'s iPhone 3G to students, partially as a way to check attendance via GPS readings from an application running on the phone. That kind of project raises privacy concerns, and one of the goals of the Japanese experiment is to judge how participants feel about having their location constantly recorded. If a disease-tracking system were launched for real, no one would be required to sign up, said Takuo Imagawa, an official at the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

India-Human to human spread reported

Hyderabad/ND, Jun 6: The first case of human-to-human transmission of the deadly virus of swine flu in the country was reported from Hyderabad, raising concerns and pushing up the number of persons af-flicted by the disease to seven today.
The human-to-human transmission took place when a man, who came back from the United States on May 31, infected his youn-ger brother who was living in Hyderabad. Both of them have tested positive for the disease.
One more case was re-ported in Karimnagar locali- ty of Hyderabad. A mother-son duo, who were sitting two rows behind the pas-senger from the United Sta- tes, also reported symptoms of flu.
While the child tested positive, the results of the tests on the mother are yet to come.
Though the severity of the infection cannot be said to be more, human-to-human transmission is a cause of concern as this means that the virus is cir-culating in the environment now, Director of the Indian Council for Medical Res-earch (ICMR) Dr VN Katoch told said.
"There might also be a spurt in the cases of swine flu after September as gene-rally we see an increase in cases of common influenza during this period," he said.
The Centre has taken im-mediate steps and rushed Rapid Action Teams to Hy-derabad to spruce up con- tainment measures.
The total number of posi-tive cases has gone upto seven with the latest cases from Hyderabad.
According to Shivlal, Di-rector of the National Ins- titute of Communicable Di-seases (NICD), who headed a Central team to Hydera-bad, though basic measures have to be taken by the State Government, the Centre has formed two teams to moni-tor the situation in Hyde- rabad and Karimnagar.
The Government has al-ready banned the import of livestock and its products from all countries in wake of the spread of the swine flu.
It has also prohibited im-ports of live poultry, egg and its products, live pigs, pathological material, un-processed feathers from the countries reporting avian influenza.
The World Health Orga-nisation has so far reported 19,273 laboratory confirmed cases of influenza A/H1N1 infection from 66 countries as on June 3, 2009. The disease has so far claimed 117 lives. Health screening of passengers coming from affected countries is continuing at 21 international airports in India. PTI

Japan-Medical staff to get new-flu comp

The Yomiuri Shimbun

Medical workers who contract the new type of influenza from patients and who then have to take time off work will be compensated for income lost while they are on sick leave, government officials said.

The medical institution where the worker is employed also will receive compensation.

The compensation will be paid from a 1 trillion yen temporary subsidy for local revitalization and measures for tackling the economic crisis, which has been newly created in the supplementary budget for this fiscal year.

The compensation will be paid from this autumn through local governments who have requested the money from the central government.

As of Saturday, there had been no reports of secondary infection with the new flu among medical workers.

In May, when the number of people in the nation suffering from the virus started rising, local governments began pressing the central government for sick leave compensation in the event of medical workers becoming infected with the new flu and being forced to recuperate at home.

Some argue that the risk of secondary infection among medical workers has increased since May 22, when the government's new policy allowed people suspected of being infected with the new flu to seek treatment not only at fever clinics for treating such people but also at ordinary hospitals and clinics in areas where the number of new flu patients had soared.

The government sees the compensation as part of its regional support measures and examined whether the subsidy could be used for this purpose before reaching its decision. The main purpose of the subsidy is economic measures, but the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry interpreted the compensation for doctors and other medical workers as assuring public safety and security, which is one of the subsidy's purposes.

The government will allow the subsidy to be used for some other new flu related purposes as well, such as salaries for nonresident doctors working at fever clinics and phone line connection fees at fever consultation centers.

Previously, the government granted more flexible uses of the subsidy as anti-new flu measures. For example, it can also be used to pay cancellation fees when a school trip must be called off because of a new flu scare.

WHO emergency meeting outcome: WHO flu alerts to reflect severity as well as spread

WHO flu alerts to reflect severity as well as spread
Fri Jun 5, 2009 1:48pm EDT

GENEVA (Reuters) - The World Health Organisation (WHO) kept its pandemic flu alert at the second highest level on Friday but said that future changes would reflect how severe an outbreak was as well as how widespread.

The U.N. agency has been weighing how to revamp its pandemic alert scale to reflect both the severity of the flu as well as its geographic spread around the world.

This follows criticism that it may have caused undue panic about the new strain whose effects have been mainly mild apart from in Mexico, where it is known to have killed 103 people.

"There was a broad consensus on the importance of including information on severity in future announcements," said a statement issued after flu experts held hour-long talks.

The experts, meeting as WHO's emergency committee, made recommendations on a number of factors to be taken into account to assess the severity of an epidemic, it said, without giving details.

WHO's top flu expert Keiji Fukuda said this week that one idea was to add three severity notches to the highest marker of 6, so the overall level can reach the peak even if the flu's effects remain moderate, and then be adjusted again later if the virus causes more serious health problems.

The experts also maintained their advice against closing borders or restricting international travel to try to halt the continued spread of the H1N1 influenza virus, measures deemed ineffective.

Production of seasonal influenza vaccines should also continue for now, as work proceeds on developing a vaccine against the new strain, widely known as swine flu, it said.

The meeting, convened at the request of WHO Director-General Margaret Chan, did not consider crossing the threshold to the highest phase 6, according to WHO officials. That issue had not been on the formal agenda.

WHO's pandemic scale remains at the second-highest level, phase 5 on a scale of 1 to 6, meaning a pandemic is imminent.

Before Friday's changes, the WHO would have had to confirm sustained spread of the virus in one country in another region besides North America to declare a full-blown pandemic, although officials had made it clear they were already looking at how severe the epidemic was before going to the top level.

Earlier, WHO spokesman Gregory Hartl told Reuters: "The director-general will use the occasion to ask the emergency committee members -- the 'flu gurus' around the world -- how and if we should have some sort of severity index within phase 6."

The experts discussed the latest findings about the virus and reviewed measures under WHO's International Health Regulations, which require countries to report promptly on outbreaks and intensify their surveillance for unusual signs.

The new strain has infected 21,940 people in 69 countries, killing 125 of them, according to the WHO. Mexico, the United States and Canada have borne the brunt of the illness and a case was confirmed in Saudi Arabia for the first time.

Fukuda, the WHO's acting assistant director-general, said on Tuesday that the virus' spread in Australia, Britain, Chile, Japan, and Spain had nudged the world closer to a pandemic.

WHO convenes emergency meeting on H1N1 flu

Posted: 05 June 2009 2047 hrs

GENEVA : The World Health Organisation on Friday began consulting its emergency committee of flu experts on the severity of the swine flu virus and possible travel recommendations.

However, the UN health agency was not expecting to make a decision on whether to declare a fully-fledged swine flu pandemic Friday, a WHO spokeswoman said, even though the body of scientists could recommend that it did so.

The agenda of the meeting was to discuss the "severity of H1N1 and also to review international health-related measures," WHO spokeswoman Fadela Chaib said.

She later told AFP: "There is no decision to expect to move to phase six today," referring to the six-level pandemic alert scale.

The alert is now at phase five, which signals that a pandemic is "imminent."

Gregory Hartl, a WHO spokesman added that travel recommendations would be discussed by the emergency committee.

The experts would also be asked to give their opinion on "adding a characterization of severity" to the alert scale.

A senior WHO official had said Tuesday that the world was "getting closer" to a swine flu pandemic as the virus shows early signs of spreading locally in countries outside the Americas.

"Globally we believe that we are at phase five but are getting closer to phase six," Keiji Fukuda, WHO assistant director-general, said then.

He cited Australia, Britain, Japan, Spain and Chile in particular as countries where the flu was showing early signs of local spread.

Australia's swine flu tally jumped by more than a third to nearly 900 on Thursday.

Some 69 countries around the world have reported 21,940 cases to the WHO, according to latest figures on the WHO website.

Under the WHO's guidelines, one key criteria for a move to the highest phase six alert would be established community spread in a country outside the first region in which the disease was initially reported, in this case, outside the Americas.

Other than geographical spread, WHO officals said last month that they were also looking at the severity of the virus, possible changes in the pattern of illness, its impact on poor countries or circulation in the southern hemisphere where it could mix with seasonal flu.

Fukuda said Tuesday that the swine flu situation could be described as "moderate" rather than "mild".

This is because "we do not have a full handle on the number of people with serious illnesses," he added.

Egypt: WHO declares مصر والسعودية فى دائرة اشتباه أنفلونزا الخنازير Egypt and Saudi Arabia, the suspicion of avian influenza in pigs
