Committee for veterinary and wildlife Murmansk area has developed «Memo to the population for the prevention of highly bird flu».

In recent years, the phrase «Bird flu» in the ear of the people both in Russia and in the world. No cases of bird flu in the Murmansk region still has not been, but that is no reason to reduce the emphasis on prevention. On the contrary, there is a need to strengthen arrangements for monitoring the disease in businesses and private households in order to prevent contamination of people. Bird flu could cause a huge irreparable damage not only the economy of the region, but primarily to public health.

A scientist is a fear that in the affected areas while circulating viruses «human» and «avian» flu. In their view, a mixture of these viruses may lead to the emergence of a new type of virus mutate, could easily spread from person to person, and for this you need to prevent infection at the highest level.

Given the real danger of skidding, the virus of the disease migratory birds in the territory of Murmansk region and the spread of bird flu among poultry, the committee on animal health and wildlife Murmansk area has developed «Memo to the population for the prevention of highly bird flu», which contains detailed information about the disease.

Memo to the population on prevention of bird flu highly

Bird flu - it is acutely infectious viral disease affects the home, sinantropnuyu (wild bird, which lives next to a man) and a wild bird. This disease also is subject to, and people. Highly influenza virus circulating in nature in wild bird populations and distributed over large distances, with migrating birds, as well as through water, predatory birds and mammals.

The greatest danger of bird flu virus poses to the land of poultry (chickens, turkeys, quail, etc.), while the waterfowl from the flu kills young and adult birds is virusonositelem.

A diseased wild and domestic birds observed unusual behavior, discoordination movements (rotational movement of head, neck twisting), the lack of response to external stimuli and depression, the chickens nigrescence serezhek and scallops. In contrast to the more sensitive the virus to domestic poultry, wild waterfowl can look outwardly healthy, but a source of infection for other birds and humans.

Influenza virus can be transmitted through close contact with infected and dead domestic and wild birds, bathing in waters where there is a massive accumulation of wild birds, through the selection (especially through the feces) containing the virus feed, water equipment, where the influenza virus a long time, saves its ability to infected birds and humans.

The above translation describes a suspect H5N1 cluster in Garut, Indonesia (see updated map). Two brothers are in isolation with bird flu symptoms. Milder cases have been reported in the neighborhood, but the neighbors are not hospitalized. Dead poultry is being tested.

The cases are likely H5N1 infected, and may test positive because the cases are advanced. If neighbors improve it is not likely that they will be hospitalized or tested. Thus cluster has some similarities with an earlier cluster in Garut, but is considerably smaller, at this time.

More information on disease onset dates of the siblings and neighbors will be useful.

Spring does not mean the end of influenza

2009.03.25

This year's flu boy. Type A begins in February, March, B-spreading type. A B seemed to be out for many students stopped attending the graduation ceremony in person and on the onset time difference for both types. It was a record warm winter this year was a memorable year in influenza infection.

By the way, the spring does not mean the end of flu season, said last year. Especially this year, WHO's bird flu information and for many years in support of a mystery. Information from China, after a series of infection to people, not all out. To Hong Kong, H5N1 in China in the流RE着I the type of bird flu has disappeared from the bird flu information. Record China Sunday, March 11, the pumping up of the following article, a glimpse of the serious situation in China.

2009 March 10, from China's Ministry of Agriculture is worried that an epidemic of avian flu through early spring, said on Thursday it would close its markets to handle the birds living in urban areas nationwide. Guangzhou Daily reported. The king of隴徳Beijing University School of Public Health in attendance at the National People's Congress being held in Beijing (RONDO one) is the director, the idea of a compulsory course in medical science and public health students from next year revealed. In China in January, caused the first deaths from bird flu this year in Beijing. (On January National People's Congress and the country), the attention to public health problems such as bird flu. Beijing is a city that has closed all the live bird market already dealing with.

There was an article this article to deny the aftermath of this article. According to Searchina said,

10 China's Ministry of Agriculture, "2009 live poultry in cities across the country (poultry) to handle the closure of the market" and said the fact that it is not announced. News that the Ministry of Agriculture on the 10th, and tell the People's Daily, reprinted in many media. In order to prevent bird flu, the Ministry of Agriculture, "a live poultry market, it is difficult to handle even the director, are vulnerable to bird flu to infect people," said said. Ministry of Agriculture, announced in the name of the office's news department. "The Ministry of Agriculture, said the article was not true", "09 years since, the veterinary department and works closely with the Ministry of Agriculture, vaccine administration, monitoring, disinfection, quarantine, The bird flu prevention measures, a massive infection has not occurred, "he said

. The bird was found dead of bird flu. The two disappeared from the bird flu information in China after all. Was to have one, news of serious measures, ATTO言U間NI denied. This manipulation was widespread, it is enough to arouse suspicion that a lot of people are having to hide something. In cases of bird flu infection in quail in Aichi, which highlighted the importance of public disclosure and aggressive measures. China will also have a March 11 response to convey a Reuters dispatch.

China's Commerce Ministry, the United States over the terms of regulating the import of poultry from the country, the World Trade Organization (WTO) plans to sue for this clause to "the injustice, of malice Things "and" going to sue China at the WTO, which has a right to take further action. " China in the past few years, and incorporation of the toxic substance melamine to dairy products and counterfeit medicines are a series of scandals over the safety of food products. Poultry feed industry executives said last week that the bird flu and domestic economic slowdown, the number of poultry in the last third said it may drop. A spokesman said the poultry industry in China is safe, and that meet international standards in quality control, to ban the import of cooked chicken from China to the United States, because of technical or food safety is said, the U.S. government, seeking an early withdrawal of this regulatory action.

Without a statement of fact, powerless. The reputation damage, and in many cases the only issue before the declaration was appropriate. In both Aichi Towadako the last year, before treatment and adequate support "declaration" is issued. In terms of China's profit, and initial validation fails in Aichi this year is clear. Miyazaki and support, and it was wonderful.

But because, to lift the alert in the spring that is dangerous. In each country, there are still infected. 24 According to Reuters,

World Health Organization (WHO) on May 23 Egypt 38-year-old woman of strong toxicity "H5N1 type," said the bird flu virus. Bird flu infection in 59 women in this country of 14 cases of central heating in the country on the day Elfath, taking the drug Tamiflu. The condition is stable. WHO said the woman was dead by the poultry disease (poultry) that were in contact with.

23 According to NNA,

County from the Ministry CHAUTAIN tap 3-year-old boy in southern Dong 19, 2007, died at a hospital in Ho Chi Minh City by the bird flu infection. Vietnam state-run news agency date 20 (VNA) reported. Bird flu death toll in the third year. H5N1 is a highly toxic boy had tested positive for the virus out. The boy who lived in the area, the virus-infected adults in the same type are put on a report that people

According to Searchina three days,

2 confirmed that the bird flu virus in the infant age. Bird flu patient in the first 56 people in the country. According to local media, the infection was found, south of Cairo about 85 kilometers from the regional two-year-old El Faiyum. Infected poultry (poultry) after contact, and February 28 was the high fever and other symptoms. Child is being treated in hospital, the recovery is not expected to stand

Says. Indonesia, Vietnam and Egypt have come up a number from a country that is relatively advanced public information, given the large number of the information is not up to China's still not off guard. "If warm" to consider and, if aware of the fact that it occurred in Egypt, Indonesia and Vietnam and warm, it will understand the importance of taking measures to prevent morbidity . Preoccupation with the flu in winter is dangerous. Just because it's spring, and the end of the flu season is far from it.

Mx’ gene in indigenous chickens keeps the flu away: Study

Theresia Sufa , The Jakarta Post , BOGOR | Wed, 03/25/2009 11:18 AM | City

At least 62 percent of chickens indigenous to Indonesia are resistant to bird flu, thanks to a gene in their body called Mx, the Indonesian Institute of Science (LIPI) revealed Monday.


“Genetically, the indigenous chickens [to Indonesia] have a gene that is immune to avian influenza,” said head of the institute Umar

Anggara Jenie, in an exposé of a biological study she gave at the Cibinong Sciences Center in Bogor, West Java.

Sri Sulandari, a gene researcher at the institute’s biological research center who studied the genes of indigenous chickens, said her institute carried out the first ever gene study focusing on how humans coped when contracting the virus and on the vaccination process.


“Few have looked into the genetic side to see how chickens themselves have a natural resistance to bird flu. The indigenous chickens’ ability to resist avian influenza varies according to the strength of the antivirus genes in their body,” Sri said.


Recent evidence indicated the Mx gene was associated with chicken resistance or susceptibility to highly pathogenic bird flu.


Indonesia’s varied population of indigenous chickens is a mine of information on the Mx gene and how resistant each breed of chicken is to bird flu, Sri added.


“Therefore, if there is a bird flu epidemic in a certain region, it is unwise to simply cull indigenous breeds, as we may lose crucial information on the Mx gene,” she said.


Based on research findings, the institute rated the dark-colored Cemani chicken the most resistant to the virus and the green forest chicken the most susceptible.


The population of chickens in Banten, West Java, Lampung and North Sumatra was also found to be highly resistant to the virus.


The institute’s research findings were based on samples taken from 1,872 indigenous chickens of various breeds.


Avian influenza was first detected in Indonesia in August 2003 and has now been found in birds from 31 of the archipelago’s provinces.


According to the Indonesia National Committee for Avian Influenza Control and Pandemic Influenza Preparedness, there have been 145 human cases of bird flu in Indonesia spread over 12 provinces, with 119 fatalities.


To curb the spread of bird flu, the Jakarta administration issued a bylaw to ban backyard farming and also plans to remove all fowl slaughterhouses from inner city areas, concentrating slaughtering in the peripheral areas of Jakarta, such as Pulogadung, Rawa Kepiting and Cakung in East Jakarta and Kalideres in West Jakarta.


The administration is also aiming to relocate all slaughterhouses in the city to the four fowl slaughter centers by April 2010. In 2007, the city administration culled 78,741 fowl.
