Egypt: risk of imminent .. ؟ Global panic or exaggerated?
[A very long article....Well worth the read. I haven't seen this "report" published in Cairo....]
Excerpt:
The word «, B» in itself does not indicate the ability of the virus to kill, but his ability to move from one person to another and spread the infection of large numbers of people in different places of the world.
وقد أظهرت دراسة «ساينس» نفسها ارتفاع قدرة فيروس «أتش 1 أن1» على الانتقال من إنسان إلى آخر بسرعة أكبر من تلك المسجلة في الأنفلونزا الموسمية.
The study showed «Science» increase the capacity of the same virus «HTML 1 to 1» to move from one person to another more quickly than those recorded in the seasonal influenza.
ولعل هذا التفسير أيضا هو الذي جعلنا حتى الآن لا نعتبر أن هناك وباء عالمياً لأنفلونزا الطيور، مع العلم أن قدرة هذا الفيروس على قتل المصاب به تصل إلى أكثر من 60 في المئة من الحالات.
Perhaps this is also the interpretation which has made so far do not consider that there is a pandemic of avian flu, knowing that the ability of this virus to kill the patient by up to more than 60 percent of the cases.
فمن بين 429 حالة مسجلة عالمياً لأنفلونزا الطيور منذ عام 2007 توفيت 262 حالة.
Out of 429 recorded cases of bird flu worldwide since 2007, died in 262 cases.
وهو ما يعني أن تحول فيروس أنفلونزا الطيور إلى فيروس قادر على الانتقال من إنسان إلى آخر بسهولة، سيكون خطره أكبر بكثير على البشرية مما هي حال أنفلونزا الخنازير اليوم.
This means that the transformation of the avian influenza virus into a virus capable of moving from one person to another easily, it will be a much greater threat to mankind than is the case of swine flu today.
ويشير تقرير نشر مؤخرا في القاهرة أن مصر هي الدولة المرشحة لأن يشهد فيها الفيروس تحولاً يجعله قادراً على الانتقال من إنسان إلى آخر حيث سجلت فيها حتى الآن 77 إصابة توفيت 27 حالة منها.
The report was recently published in Cairo that Egypt is the candidate to see a shift where the virus to be able to move from one person to another, recorded so far 77 cases of which 27 died.

وفي هذه الحالة فإن انتشاره سيحصل قبل أن يتنبه أي شخص إليه حتى بوجود أنظمة رصد جيدة.
In this case, the spread will be aware of before any person so there is good monitoring systems.
وأول إشارات أي وباء قاتل لن تأتي من منظمة الصحة العالمية أو الجسم الطبي وإنما من واقع أن الناس يصابون بالمرض ويموتون حول العالم في الوقت نفسه.

1- أن المعيار الذى تعتمد عليه منظمة الصحة العالمية كأساس لإعلانها الانتقال للمرحلة السادسة، لا يعكس بأى حال من الأحوال زيادة شدة أو حدة أو ضراوة أو خطورة الفيروس المسبب للمرض، وإنما يستند هذا المعيار إلى عنصر "الانتشار الجغرافى"، وظهور المرض فى 74 دولة بالعالم حتى الآن. 1 - that the criterion on which the World Health Organization declared the basis for the transition to phase VI, did not reflect any event or the increase in the intensity or ferocity or the seriousness of the virus, but is based on the criterion of a "geographical spread", and the emergence of the disease in 74 countries the world so far. كما أن منظمة الصحة العالمية أعلنت الانتقال للمرحلة السادسة أساسا بسبب ارتفاع "عدد" الحالات المصابة فى أستراليا، وليس نتيجة زيادة "شدة" أو "خطورة" الفيروس المسبب للمرض. The World Health Organization declared the sixth stage of the transition mainly due to a rise in the "number of" cases in Australia, and not the result of the increase in "severe" or "seriousness" of the virus.
2- تؤكد كافة بيانات وإحصائيات منظمة الصحة العالمية، ومركز مكافحة الأمراض فى أتلانتا بالولايات المتحدة، أن كثيرا من المصابين بهذا النوع من الأنفلونزا يتم شفاؤهم من العدوى تلقائيا خلال أيام معدودة، كما أن نسبة الوفيات فى هذا المرض تمثل أقل من 1% (بلغ إجمالى الحالات المصابة 27739، بينما بلغت جملة الوفيات 141 حالة) وهى تقريبا نفس نسبة الوفيات من مضاعفات الأنفلونزا الموسمية. 2 - All the data and statistics of the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, United States, many of those infected with this type of influenza infection is recovered automatically in a few days, and the proportion of deaths from the disease represent less than 1% (total cases of 27739, while the total deaths 141 cases) is almost the same rate of deaths from complications of seasonal influenza.
3- أن تجربة الحالات الـ12 الذين قدموا لمصر، وتأكد إصابتهم بهذا المرض، أثبتت استجابة الحالات الفورية للعلاج، وتماثلهم للشفاء من هذا الفيروس، ولم يحدث بمصر حتى الآن أية انتقال للمرض فيما بين المواطنين المصريين. 3 - the experience of 12 cases who had come to Egypt, and the confirmed infected with the disease have shown cases of immediate response to treatment, and the continued recovery of the virus, did not happen in Egypt so far, no transmission of the disease among the Egyptian citizens.
4- أنه ورغم إعلان منظمة الصحة العالمية الانتقال للمرحلة السادسة، فإن المنظمة توصى بعدم إغلاق الحدود الدولية، أو تقييد حركة السفر بين الدول، الأمر الذى يعنى أن الفيروس لا يشكل تهديدا خطيرا على صحة الإنسان بشكل يستوجب معه اتخاذ إجراءات استثنائية وطارئة. 4 - It is despite the Declaration of the World Health Organization, the sixth stage of the transition, the FAO recommends against the closure of international borders, or restrictions on travel between the countries, which means that the virus does not pose a serious threat to human health are required to take extraordinary measures and emergency.
5- تنصح وزارة الصحة المواطنين المصريين باستمرار حياتهم الطبيعية دون ذعر أو هلع، مع الالتزام التام بإجراءات وقواعد النظافة الشخصية والعامة، مع ضرورة مراعاة: 5 - Ministry of Health advises citizens of Egyptian natural continuation of their lives without fear or panic, in strict compliance with procedures and rules of personal hygiene and public, with the need to take into account:
a. a. غسل الأيدى بالماء والصابون باستمرار. Hand-washing with soap and water frequently.
b. b. تغطية الأنف والفم أثناء الكحة والعطس. Cover nose and mouth while sneezing and cough.
c. c. التهوية الجيدة فى المواصلات العامة وفى أماكن المعيشة. Good ventilation in the public transport and places of living.
d. d. تجنب الأماكن المزدحمة سيئة التهوية. Avoid crowded places and poorly ventilated.
e. e. استشارة الطبيب المختص وملازمة المنزل عند الشعور بأعراض الأنفلونزا. Consult a specialist doctor and staying home when feeling symptoms of influenza.
6- تؤكد وزارة الصحة على أن السلطات المصرية تملك مخزونا استراتيجيا كافيا من عقار التاميفلو، وهو لا يستخدم إلا عند وقوع الإصابة بالفيروس، لكنه لا يعطى بغرض الوقاية أو تجنب الإصابة بالفيروس، وتحذر وزارة الصحة من أن محاولة استخدام العقار للوقاية من الإصابة بالفيروس أو دون استشارة طبية قد يسبب مناعة الفيروس ضد العقار، ومن ثم يصبح تأثير العقار ضعيفا. 6 - The Ministry of Health that the Egyptian authorities have a strategic stockpile enough of the antiviral drug Tamiflu, which is used only at the time of infection, but not to give in order to prevent or avoid HIV infection, and the Ministry of Health warns that the attempt to use the drug for the prevention of HIV infection or medical consultation may cause drug resistance against the virus, and thus the impact of weak property. كما تنصح وزارة الصحة بعدم التكالب والاندفاع وراء شراء الماسكات، نظرا لعدم وجود مبرّر قوى أو حاجة ماسة لاستخدامها فى الوقت الراهن. It also advises the Ministry of Health and the struggle not to rush the purchase of Almascat, in the absence of a strong justification or need for use at the moment.
7- تعاود وزارة الصحة تذكير المواطنين بأن هناك خطة وطنية مفصلة موضوعة منذ عام 2007 لمواجهة جائحة الأنفلونزا فى حالة حدوثها، ويجرى تنفيذها بالتنسيق مع كافة الجهات والأطراف المعنية. 7 - Ministry of Health re-remind people that there is a detailed national plan in place since the 2007 pandemic influenza in the event they occur, and is being implemented in coordination with all parties concerned.
8- تهيب وزارة الصحة بجميع المواطنين عدم الاستماع أو الانسياق وراء الشائعات المضللة، حرصا على تحقيق المصلحة العامة، وتؤكد أنها تتعامل بشفافية كاملة مع الموقف، وسوف تقوم الوزارة بإصدار بيان إعلامى شامل بصورة يومية يوضح تطورات الموقف الوبائى للمرض فى مصر والعالم، ويقدم الإرشادات والمعلومات اللازمة للمواطنين أولا بأول. 8 - Ministry of Health calls on all citizens not to listen or be deceived by rumors and misinformation, in the interests of the public interest, and confirm they are dealing with complete transparency with the situation, and the ministry will issue a media statement on a daily basis shows the development of the situation, the epidemic of the disease in Egypt and the world, and provides guidance and information necessary to keep the citizens.
9- هذا، ويمكن للسادة المواطنين الذين لديهم المزيد من الاستفسارات الاتصال برقم تليفون 105، أو الاطلاع على الموقع الإلكترونى لوزارة الصحة على شبكة الإنترنت WWW.MOHP.GOV.EG، والذى يتضمن تحديثا دوريا لآخر التطورات والبيانات المتاحة. 9 -, and can be the masters of the citizens who have more queries contact telephone number 105, or found on the website of the Ministry of Health on the Internet WWW.MOHP.GOV.EG, which includes periodic updates of the latest developments and data available.

World now at the start of 2009 influenza pandemic
Dr Margaret Chan
Director-General of the World Health Organization
Ladies and gentlemen,
In late April, WHO announced the emergence of a novel influenza A virus.
This particular H1N1 strain has not circulated previously in humans. The virus is entirely new.
The virus is contagious, spreading easily from one person to another, and from one country to another. As of today, nearly 30,000 confirmed cases have been reported in 74 countries.
This is only part of the picture. With few exceptions, countries with large numbers of cases are those with good surveillance and testing procedures in place.
Spread in several countries can no longer be traced to clearly-defined chains of human-to-human transmission. Further spread is considered inevitable.
I have conferred with leading influenza experts, virologists, and public health officials. In line with procedures set out in the International Health Regulations, I have sought guidance and advice from an Emergency Committee established for this purpose.
On the basis of available evidence, and these expert assessments of the evidence, the scientific criteria for an influenza pandemic have been met.
I have therefore decided to raise the level of influenza pandemic alert from phase 5 to phase 6.
The world is now at the start of the 2009 influenza pandemic.
We are in the earliest days of the pandemic. The virus is spreading under a close and careful watch.
No previous pandemic has been detected so early or watched so closely, in real-time, right at the very beginning. The world can now reap the benefits of investments, over the last five years, in pandemic preparedness.
We have a head start. This places us in a strong position. But it also creates a demand for advice and reassurance in the midst of limited data and considerable scientific uncertainty.
Thanks to close monitoring, thorough investigations, and frank reporting from countries, we have some early snapshots depicting spread of the virus and the range of illness it can cause.
We know, too, that this early, patchy picture can change very quickly. The virus writes the rules and this one, like all influenza viruses, can change the rules, without rhyme or reason, at any time.
Globally, we have good reason to believe that this pandemic, at least in its early days, will be of moderate severity. As we know from experience, severity can vary, depending on many factors, from one country to another.
On present evidence, the overwhelming majority of patients experience mild symptoms and make a rapid and full recovery, often in the absence of any form of medical treatment.
Worldwide, the number of deaths is small. Each and every one of these deaths is tragic, and we have to brace ourselves to see more. However, we do not expect to see a sudden and dramatic jump in the number of severe or fatal infections.
We know that the novel H1N1 virus preferentially infects younger people. In nearly all areas with large and sustained outbreaks, the majority of cases have occurred in people under the age of 25 years.
In some of these countries, around 2% of cases have developed severe illness, often with very rapid progression to life-threatening pneumonia.
Most cases of severe and fatal infections have been in adults between the ages of 30 and 50 years.
This pattern is significantly different from that seen during epidemics of seasonal influenza, when most deaths occur in frail elderly people.
Many, though not all, severe cases have occurred in people with underlying chronic conditions. Based on limited, preliminary data, conditions most frequently seen include respiratory diseases, notably asthma, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, and obesity.
At the same time, it is important to note that around one third to half of the severe and fatal infections are occurring in previously healthy young and middle-aged people.
Without question, pregnant women are at increased risk of complications. This heightened risk takes on added importance for a virus, like this one, that preferentially infects younger age groups.
Finally, and perhaps of greatest concern, we do not know how this virus will behave under conditions typically found in the developing world. To date, the vast majority of cases have been detected and investigated in comparatively well-off countries.
Let me underscore two of many reasons for this concern. First, more than 99% of maternal deaths, which are a marker of poor quality care during pregnancy and childbirth, occurs in the developing world.
Second, around 85% of the burden of chronic diseases is concentrated in low- and middle-income countries.
Although the pandemic appears to have moderate severity in comparatively well-off countries, it is prudent to anticipate a bleaker picture as the virus spreads to areas with limited resources, poor health care, and a high prevalence of underlying medical problems.
Ladies and gentlemen,
A characteristic feature of pandemics is their rapid spread to all parts of the world. In the previous century, this spread has typically taken around 6 to 9 months, even during times when most international travel was by ship or rail.
Countries should prepare to see cases, or the further spread of cases, in the near future. Countries where outbreaks appear to have peaked should prepare for a second wave of infection.
Guidance on specific protective and precautionary measures has been sent to ministries of health in all countries. Countries with no or only a few cases should remain vigilant.
Countries with widespread transmission should focus on the appropriate management of patients. The testing and investigation of patients should be limited, as such measures are resource intensive and can very quickly strain capacities.
WHO has been in close dialogue with influenza vaccine manufacturers. I understand that production of vaccines for seasonal influenza will be completed soon, and that full capacity will be available to ensure the largest possible supply of pandemic vaccine in the months to come.
Pending the availability of vaccines, several non-pharmaceutical interventions can confer some protection.
WHO continues to recommend no restrictions on travel and no border closures.
Influenza pandemics, whether moderate or severe, are remarkable events because of the almost universal susceptibility of the world’s population to infection.
We are all in this together, and we will all get through this, together.
Thank you.

Recombinomics: Delayed Pandemic 6 Designation Raises Pandemic Concerns
Commentary
It means the swine flu virus is spreading in at least two regions of the world with rising cases being seen in the UK, Australia, Japan and Chile.
The above comments describe the decision of WHO to raise the pandemic level from 5 to 6, the highest level. Thus, the 2009 pandemic is the first since 1968, when H3N2 replaced H2N2, which had replaced H1N1 in 1957.
However, the 2009 pandemic involves swine H1N1, and the last time swine H1N1 moved into a human population was in 1918.
The parallels between the 2009 pandemic and the 1918 pandemic are striking; Both began as a mild infection in the spring and targeted previously healthy young adults. In the fall of 1918, the virus was much more deadly, leading to the death of 20-50 million people, most of which were previously healthy young adults.
In 2009, a similar pattern was seen in Mexico in mid-April. At the same time the swine H1N1 was detected in children in southern California. However, the patients in southern California were over 100 miles apart and had no relationship with each other, or contact with swine. Thus, it was clear that in later March / early April, there was sustained community transmission in the United States and Mexico. Shortly thereafter, sequence analysis demonstrated that the H1N1 in both countries was the same (a swine H1N1 that had a human PB1, avian PB2, and swine origins for the six remaining gene segments.
Under the earlier pandemic phasing system, the discovery of sustained transmission would have generated a phase 6 designation two months ago. The earlier system defined phase 3,4, and 5 by increased transmission, and phase 6 represented sustained transmission, which was unlikely to be halted.
The new system moved sustained transmission down to phase 4 and then defined phase 5 and 6 as geographical spread due to the sustained transmission, which was a minor variation of the sustained transmission theme.
The new system also led to surveillance at airports, long after the virus had spread worldwide (see updated map). However, countries largely missed the internal spread because efforts were focused on border entry. Since the virus produced mild symptoms, the internal spread was largely missed and as surveillance moves toward more widespread detection the extent of the earlier spread nwill be clear.
It was this focus on airports that minimized the data on community spread, so the two month delay had much more to do with the revised phasing and misguided testing, than the actual spread of the virus.
At this point, there is little that will stop the spread prior to widespread use of an effective vaccine, However, the large reservoir of swine H1N1 in a human population, involving the northern hemisphere where the virus has little completion by seasonal flu, and the southern hemisphere, where the swine virus is displacing seasonal flu, raises concerns that when the new vaccine is ready for the 2009/2010 season, the swine H1N1 will have evolved away from the vaccine, as it adapts to its new host and natural immunity in its new host.
Thus, the two month delay in the pandemic 6 declaration may prove to be quite hazardous to the world's health.

CDC strategy to reschedule international flights not expected
Scott Powers | Sentinel Staff Writer
11:24 AM EDT, June 11, 2009
No changes in international air traffic to Orlando International Airport or any other American airport are expected as a consequence of today's declaration, by the World Health Organization, of a Phase 6 international pandemic of swine flu.
While the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, Department of Homeland Security and Department of Transportation recently jointly developed an influenza pandemic strategy that includes the rescheduling of all incoming international flights to 19 American airports in the case of a worldwide health emergency, such a decision would be based on a variety of factors, chiefly assessments of the risks to the American public, according to a spokeswoman at the CDC, which has lead responsibility for U.S. responses. Orlando International Airport is not one of the 19 airports in the strategy.
The CDC is planning a press conference this afternoon to further discuss its role and ramifications of the WHO declaration. Earlier this week CDC spokeswoman Shelly Sikes Diaz said any decisions regarding international air traffic into the United States would be made at "a very high level" of U.S. government, and would not be based on WHO's pandemic index.
