NEPAL: Avian influenza outbreak contained but risks remain
KATHMANDU, 17 February 2009 (IRIN) - The H5NI virus has been brought under control after a month-long outbreak in poultry in Jhapa district, nearly 500km south-east of the capital, according to government officials.
-snip-
Risks
However, the potential for new outbreaks is great, according to avian influenza specialists.
A team of experts from the UN Crisis Management Centre-Animal Health (CMC-AH) visited the country recently. CMC-AH was established in October2006 by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) with the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) to enhance FAO's ability to help countries prevent and cope with disease outbreaks.
The CMC-AH team stated after their assessment that while the government's response was efficient and thorough, there were still major risks of outbreaks.
"The response has been robust and with impressive speed but there is still a need for … heightened awareness," said David Hadrill, mission leader of CMC-AH.
Government officials have also said the country remained at risk given that its neighbours, particularly China and India, have a history of bird flu outbreaks. Nepal's huge poultry industry also relies largely on imports from West Bengal and Bihar in India.
Ongoing concerns
Government officials expressed concern over the critical shortage of trained veterinarians, the lack of adequate laboratories for testing and supplies of disinfectants for spraying contaminated areas. There is also a lack of communication equipment to increase public awareness about prevention measures, they said.
The CMC-AH team agreed there was an urgent need for more lab equipment, facility upgrades and consumables to safely and effectively perform diagnostic assessments. It has recommended the Nepalese government consider scenario planning and a financial fund to deal with multiple outbreaks should they occur.
It added that the surveillance was very crucial in the coming months and more resources should be allocated to training. The government is already planning a three-month-long surveillance campaign in the affected areas of east Nepal.
"Fortunately, the bird flu occurred in only one place [Jhapa]. We would be unable to control the outbreak if it had taken place in more than three places [simultaneously]," a government official, who requested anonymity, told IRIN.

He explains, the last time DKK giving tamiflu in January in which as many as 70 tablets tamiflu given to the citizens Curidan, Bulakrejo, Sukoharjo. In the last month, as many as 10 residents in the area suffering from the symptoms ili.
"Tamiflu is consumed if there are people ili. If ya is not no use. Related AI, we mengimbau that citizens behave mewaspadainya with healthy living. Always wash hands and clean themselves after contact with poultry, "Rustiningsih demolished.

Indo: Bird flu not a danger: Expert
Luh De Suryani , The Jakarta Post , Denpasar | Tue, 02/17/2009 1:43 PM | Bali
The island's tourism industry will not be endangered by avian flu as long as the government incorporates all stakeholders in the containment effort, a leading expert says.
I Gusti Ngurah Mahardhika, head of the Biomedical and Molecular Biology Laboratory at Udayana University's Veterinary Medicine School, said the government should share the virus samples with other institutions to predict the infection route and to study the possibility of whether the virus can infect humans.
"In fact, the Udayana Medical School has the technology to analyze the virus. If we can gain access to the samples gathered by the Animal Husbandry Agency and the Veterinary Main Office, we can help analyze the viruses that spread recently," he said.
He said the results would be useful in finding out where it came from and whether it was already in Bali or from outside the island.
"The most important thing is figuring out whether the viruses that were gathered in 2009 have the potential to infect humans," said Mahardhika, who was the first scientist to identify the existence of bird flu on the island.
Recently, Bali had another brush with bird flu. Early this month, Jagapati village in the Abiansemal district of Badung saw a resurgence of the virus after officials discovered bird flu in five of the 15 birds that suddenly died there.
Mahardhika said laboratory staff had gone to the infected site to gain more insight into the much-dreaded H5N1 virus.
"But we are not an officially designated avian influenza laboratory. We just check the samples we retrieve ourselves from field visits in response to requests from members of the community or companies," he said.
His laboratory does examina-tions of suspected bird flu viruses, which cost Rp 300,000 (US$25) per sample.
"We can usually give the results within a day. In fact, if the sample arrives first thing in the morning, we can give a one-day service," he said.
Periodically, the samples that test positive in Udayana's laboratory get sent to the Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology in Jakarta.
"Most of the virus sequencing has been sent to the international public database at the Genebank. The information there is very useful to help predict the genetic tendencies of viruses, such as whether it prefers mammals in general or humans in particular," he said.
One example of that was when he predicted that the first human case of bird flu infection would occur in Jembrana in 2006.
"That time, we predicted that the first case would occur either in Jembrana, Buleleng or Klungkung. And we were right. The first case happened in Jembrana," he said.
"And from our studies of the virus in 2007, we believed that the virus that attacked people in Jembrana would be different from the ones that attacked people in Tabanan. Fortunately, the bird flu only struck two people. Or it is possible it attacked more than two but somebody missed it or it went unreported."
Mahardhika said the Udayana Veterinary School was ready to support the Bali government in responding to bird flu in a quid pro quo agreement.
"All we want in return is simple and cheap, and that is the right to publish and communicate the genetic information of the virus to other scientists and the public, locally, nationally and internationally," he said.

By Hunan Xiangya hospital after 19 days the full treatment, the province溆浦县confirmed highly pathogenic avian influenza patients, 21-year-old舒某某elimination of clinical symptoms. Yesterday, Xiangya Hospital clinic patients with human avian influenza expert group examination and discussion that舒某某in full compliance with the country people about bird flu and discharged standards舒某某is expected to be discharged today.
Patients is expected to be discharged today
21-year-old patients with舒某某Department of溆浦县Farmer, January 23 in the pathogenesis溆浦县whose condition worsened on the 26th into the people溆浦县hospital in-patient treatment in hospital on the 29th into the Xiangya hospital.

Xiangya Hospital, the hospital diagnosis and treatment of experts convened by the relevant expert groups, medical groups, nursing and disinfection and isolation group and so on, day and night concerned about the patients. To February 2, a marked improvement舒某某illness, loss of appetite, have a better mental state, body temperature, blood pressure normal, chest X-ray examination did not extend the shadow of the lungs, but a slight absorption. After further treatment, to further stabilize舒某某condition, no cough, blood leukocytes returned to normal, the gradual elimination of clinical symptoms, and is expected to be discharged today.
Diary records the whole process of treatment

2.6m doses of vaccine
SINGAPORE is stepping up its defences against a possible bird flu pandemic with the purchase of enough vaccines for 1.3 million people.
Vaccines give the best protection against the flu, but the one for H5N1 or bird flu became available only in 2007.
The original defence against a bird flu pandemic was to give the more than 50,000 'essential' people, such as doctors and policemen, six weeks' supply of Tamiflu, an antiviral that reduces the effects of the illness by preventing the bug from multiplying.
