DA stops bird, poultry imports from bird flu-stricken Italian city
06/03/2010 06:52 PM
The Philippines’ Agriculture department ordered a temporary ban on importing bird and poultry products from a northern Italian city after authorities confirmed outbreaks of bird flu or avian influenza (H5N1) there.
Department of Agriculture Secretary Bernie Fondevilla issued the ban after the Office International des Epizooties (World Organization on Animal Health) confirmed outbreaks of avian influenza in Bergamo in Lombardy, Italy, the DA said in a statement on Thursday.
The department said the European Commission’s Health and Consumers Directorate General confirmed the presence of low pathogenic avian influenza in two poultry holdings in Bergamo.
The department also ordered the immediate suspension of the processing and issuance of Veterinary Quarantine Clearances (VQCs) to all imports covering products from the banned area.
Fondevilla stressed the poultry industry in the Philippines has remained free of bird flu ever since the highly pathogenic H5N1 strain struck Asia seven years ago. Brunei, Singapore, and the Philippines are the only avian influenza-free countries in Southeast Asia.
To protect the local industry, the DA has set up Community-Based Early Warning Systems (CBEWS) in selected communities identified as high-risk in contacting the virus. The CBEWS would orient the communities on avian influenza mortalities, possible AI cases, and smuggling of poultry and exotic birds from avian influenza-infected countries.
The department also tapped the Bureau of Animal Industry (BAI) to implement the Applied Veterinary Epidemiology Training (AVET) Program to strengthen the capacity of local field veterinary services in designing and managing disease surveillance and conducting outbreak investigations.
The national government has four Regional Avian Influenza Diagnostic Laboratories (RAIDLs) in Zamboanga City, Cagayan de Oro City, Cebu City, and San Fernando City in Pampanga. These complement the Avian Influenza Laboratory at the Philippine Animal Health Center of the BAI, the country’s first diagnostic facility meant to promptly detect the H5N1 virus.

India: Pre-monsoon diseases on the rise in Alappuzha
Kerala
Jun 03, 2010
ALAPPUZHA: Even as the south-west monsoon is playing hide and seek with the State, seasonal contagious diseases have started making their presence felt across the district.
While health authorities insist that there is nothing yet to worry about, they agree that precautionary measures have been set into motion. K.M. Sirabudin, District Medical Officer, said a campaign against vector-borne and viral diseases, with focus on dengue, Leptospirosis (rat fever) and jaundice was already on.
The public had been asked to observe at least one dry day a week, making sure that there were no avenues for mosquitoes to breed with steps being taken to avoid stagnation of water in any form around the house.
Fogging operations too were being undertaken in most areas, with special focus in four wards in the Kayamkulam municipality, from where six suspected of cases of dengue were reported recently.
Dengue cases
Of these, one had been confirmed and the patient was out of danger, Mr. Sirabudin, who visited the area on Wednesday, told The Hindu.
However, he denied reports in the vernacular media that the district was in the grip of viral fever and that there were a couple of deaths due to fever.
“We have not received any confirmed official reports on any such case,” he said.
Enquiries at primary health centres however, confirmed that there was a rise in the number of viral fever cases being reported at these centres, most of them on the coastal belt of the district. PHCs and a couple of private nursing homes at Chettikad, Kalavoor, Arthunkal and Muhamma have seen at least 100 persons each, most of them complaining of throat pain, shivering and body pains, in the last one week alone.
High incidence of viral fever has been reported from the Kuttanad region, Mararikulam and Ambalapuzha areas.
Leptospirosis cases too have been reported from various regions of the district. According to Health department sources, 27 cases of the fever were reported from January so far, with three deaths as well.
Most of the Leptospirosis cases were reported among labourers participating in canal de-silting/paddy field preparation works under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Schemes.

Australia: Seasonal Flu Vaccine Remains Suspended for young children without risk factors - Advice from the Chief Medical Officer
Australian Government
Department of Health and Ageing
Professor Jim Bishop AO
MD MMed MBBS FRACP FRCPA
Commonwealth Chief Medical Officer
1 June 2010
After consideration of the results to date of a comprehensive investigation into the safety of the seasonal flu vaccine for young children, I have advised, that as a precaution, the suspension of seasonal flu vaccination should continue for healthy children under five years of age.
Since the first reports of a higher than usual occurrence of fever with convulsions in young children following seasonal flu vaccination in WA in April, investigations nationally have confirmed that a small number of children aged under five across the country have experienced fever with convulsions in the 24 hours after vaccination with the 2010 seasonal influenza vaccine. These reactions have been associated mainly with Fluvax, manufactured by CSL.
The investigation conducted by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), in association with the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) and the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance has identified no apparent clinical, biological or epidemiological factors that would explain the higher than expected observed rates of fever with convulsions. Laboratory testing of the vaccine by the TGA and an audit of the CSL manufacturing plant have also revealed no abnormalities to explain this event. However this investigation is continuing.
Nevertheless, to date, epidemiological analyses point to a rate of febrile convulsions in children aged under five years following 2010 seasonal influenza vaccination of about 9 per 1000 children vaccinated, while the expected rate would be less than 1 per 1000.
While I am recommending that healthy children aged under five years not be vaccinated with seasonal flu vaccine this year, where a child aged under five has medical risk factors that would cause serious health effects for the child if they got the flu, parents should discuss with their doctor whether, on clinical evaluation of the risks and benefits, a seasonal flu vaccination would be the best option.
Doctors should note that, while a higher rate of febrile convulsions has been identified using Fluvax, insufficient doses of this season’s Influvac and Vaxigrip vaccines have been used in children in this age group to accurately determine the rates for these vaccines. In addition, as the cause of the increase in febrile convulsions is not yet known, caution should be exercised.
In addition, the alternative for both healthy children and those with risk factors is the swine flu vaccine, Panvax, which has been shown to be safe and effective in young children and is freely available.
Influenza itself often causes fever in young children which can lead to convulsions and flu vaccine can also produce these side effects but there is a clear signal that the rate of fever with convulsions is higher with this year's vaccine across all jurisdictions.
The investigation found that, while there are some cases of fever with convulsions associated with the swine flu vaccine, these were in line with the expected rate of side effects for a flu vaccine based on the swine flu vaccine clinical trials and experience with seasonal flu vaccines in previous years, both in Australia and internationally.
The TGA will continue to work with overseas Regulators and the US CDC in Atlanta to ascertain the scientific reason for this phenomenon.

While I am recommending that healthy children aged under five years not be vaccinated with seasonal flu vaccine this year, where a child aged under five has medical risk factors that would cause serious health effects for the child if they got the flu, parents should discuss with their doctor whether, on clinical evaluation of the risks and benefits, a seasonal flu vaccination would be the best option.
Doctors should note that, while a higher rate of febrile convulsions has been identified using Fluvax, insufficient doses of this season’s Influvac and Vaxigrip vaccines have been used in children in this age group to accurately determine the rates for these vaccines. In addition, as the cause of the increase in febrile convulsions is not yet known, caution should be exercised.
In addition, the alternative for both healthy children and those with risk factors is the swine flu vaccine, Panvax, which has been shown to be safe and effective in young children and is freely available.
Influenza itself often causes fever in young children which can lead to convulsions and flu vaccine can also produce these side effects but there is a clear signal that the rate of fever with convulsions is higher with this year's vaccine across all jurisdictions.
The investigation found that, while there are some cases of fever with convulsions associated with the swine flu vaccine, these were in line with the expected rate of side effects for a flu vaccine based on the swine flu vaccine clinical trials and experience with seasonal flu vaccines in previous years, both in Australia and internationally.
The TGA will continue to work with overseas Regulators and the US CDC in Atlanta to ascertain the scientific reason for this phenomenon.
WHO: new basis for H5N1 vaccine developed
/02 Jun 2010
Scientists have used bird flu virus samples from Egypt to develop a new basis for a vaccine against the toxic H5N1 strain that continues to circulate, the World Health Organization said.
The WHO said the candidate virus was developed at the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta "thanks to the ministry of health and population of Egypt, for providing virus specimens".
"This recombinant vaccine virus is available for distribution," it said in a statement. "Institutions, companies and others interested in pandemic vaccine development who wish to receive these candidate vaccine viruses should contact either the WHO Global Influenza Program ... or the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention."
Pharmaceutical companies including Novartis are already working on vaccines against H5N1 bird flu, which has killed or forced the culling of more than 300 million birds since 2003 as it spread to 61 countries in Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
The U.N.'s Food and Agriculture Organization reported 250 outbreaks of H5N1 in birds in February alone -- in Bangladesh, China, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Laos, Nepal and Vietnam.
Avian influenza has killed 261 people out of 424 infected since 2003.
Its statement on said flu experts were continuing to monitor the evolution of avian influenza and other flu viruses and stressed the need for countries to keep providing samples of identified strains.
"Countries are encouraged to share with WHO their specimens and/or isolates, both from humans and animals, for their inclusion in the WHO H5N1 vaccine virus development and selection process, in addition to other activities of public health significance," it said.

Puzzling inefficiency of H5N1 influenza vaccines in Egyptian poultry
Proceedings of the National Academy of Science of the United States
Contributed by Robert G. Webster, May 10, 2010 (sent for review March 1, 2010)
Abstract
In Egypt, efforts to control highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus in poultry and in humans have failed despite increased biosecurity, quarantine, and vaccination at poultry farms. The ongoing circulation of HP H5N1 avian influenza in Egypt has caused >100 human infections and remains an unresolved threat to veterinary and public health. Here, we describe that the failure of commercially available H5 poultry vaccines in Egypt may be caused in part by the passive transfer of maternal H5N1 antibodies to chicks, inhibiting their immune response to vaccination. We propose that the induction of a protective immune response to H5N1 is suppressed for an extended period in young chickens. This issue, among others, must be resolved and additional steps must be taken before the outbreaks in Egypt can be controlled.
