Bird flu 

What is the meaning of bird flu?  

Divided influenza viruses responsible for the common cold to the different types A, B, and C is the most Type A, which is divided into 15 Class H and nine varieties of N, which causes two types H and H cases in a satisfactory lead to death by 90 to 100 percent. And this affects all types of bird flu almost, and the virus is transmitted between animals through direct contact with the infection through breathing or feces, or indirectly through exposure to materials carry the virus, such as water and food, tools and clothing used by educators and workers. And wild birds often carry strains of the virus without showing any symptoms, but the connection of these migratory birds, poultry is the cause of the disease and the spread of the epidemic, and can also be transmitted the infection to other animal species such as pork.
The back of the bird flu virus for the first time in Hong Kong in 1997 and behind the death of six people and then returned later in the year 2003, causing several victims in Asia in particular, is still the media to tell us the news today. Most of the affected countries are Asian countries, where he received the transmission of the virus to humans in Aetna, Thailand and Cambodia and Indonesia. And though the World Health Organization does not claim down sample travel to the affected areas, but some precautions dictate.
 

Is this virus is transmitted from animals to humans?  

The virus can type A and Class (N / H) that is transmitted from animals to humans, such as in Asia, as well as in the Netherlands by category (N / H), and carried the infection when the connection to these animals large and extended and repeated as respect for the worlds in the field or from their relationship by Kalmar and technicians and veterinarians and clearance teams.
 

Does the virus spread from one person to another?  

No evidence of transmission category N / H from person to person, but there is a suspicion in some few cases, but for an epidemic year requires a mutation in the bird flu virus makes it a virus nurses and at the same time moving between humans, too, and you can get this in human being has the injury prior influenza virus human after inflicted by the bird flu virus in the same person, then it is the exchange of genetic material between the two types, here is a possibility improbable to generate virus hybrid capable of causing disease in humans, too, and can these genetic alterations that occur automatically in person below have been wounded in advance of the human influenza virus. Therefore, the World Health Organization announced in 2003 that we are in the case of pre-pandemic and we can move on to the stage of the year when the epidemic of the virus among humans.
 

What are the symptoms and how to get the influenza pandemic?  

Among the symptoms of influenza mention the following (see also):
The sudden appearance in a few hours or less than an hour
Fever, chills,
Cough and pain in the head
Fatigue and malaise (wrench and break in the flesh)
As for the pandemic year, it happens after a period of incubation, which lasts up to a week, and then transmit the disease to stage regular or disease Bugger (body temperature more than 38 degrees and pain in the throat and muscle and breathing problems Kale), but quickly the disease progresses and develop symptoms of the emergence of problems breathing difficult. Then comes the stage of changes in the severity and nature of the new virus, where lies the danger in mixing infected millions of people with colds quarterly, which is often what happens to human beings in the winter, here are difficult to monitor these elements infected with the new virus, and in this case it does not detect the virus unless There was a quick and analyzes developed or sophisticated and specialized hospitals reveal these new cases.
 

Is there a vaccine for humans?  

The vaccine is your flu winter does not entitle the protection of the bird flu or viruses resulting from mutations, and works specialists to prepare a vaccine against Class N H, but in the case of a pandemic year, the vaccine will be effective only if the new virus soon from this category . And so the vaccine is effective after knowing who is attending the new virus, then appears after four to six months, according to specialists.
 

Is there a preventive treatment or healing in humans?  

There are two types of medicines:
Anti-viral protein M'S, which are resistant influenza viruses A, but is characterized by symptoms of side effects as problems in the kidneys, liver, and nerves, as the virus develops resistance to antibiotics quickly.
Inhibitors of the enzyme Foramina uncertainties inhibitors: such as Tamil Tamil which is effective in reducing the severity and duration of symptoms if used in a couple of days the first onset of symptoms (within 48 hours, and the sooner the better the results), and also enables the prevention of the virus in the event of use before injury , and thus this drug is good in the case of the spread of the epidemic and the public especially easy to use.


The anti-bacterial not have an impact on the epidemic viruses, because they are especially resistant bacteria not viruses, but they can take benefit in the case of viral disease or to prevent bacterial infection.

Is there a possibility of infection when birds and eggs consumption?
The transmission of the virus through the air, while the infection by consuming the meat of animals infected with the tolerable weak and careless, because the effect of the virus disappear with the temperature more than 60 degrees for 5 minutes and one minute only under the heat of 100 degrees, and on the other hand, the virus even in If you do not cook it crashed by the acidity of the digestive fluid.
 

How can limit the spread of influenza?  

Influenza virus is transmitted generally - are not talking here about the bird virus - by spray-associated words and coughing and sneezing, and must take a series of measures to curb the spread of the virus:
Work on the survival of patients in their homes and tracked by specialists into place or take them to the hospital for critical situations.
Quarantine for six days on people who have had contacts with wounded without taking preventive measures.
Use of masks that prevent transmission of viruses.
And since the virus can be in the hands and the other the action maintenance is essential, such as washing hands with soap several times repeated after sneezing it or contact one of the injured must also cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, avoiding spitting on the ground while taking napkins to use only one, and wash your hands after these uses.
Must prevent gatherings in the case of an epidemic year.
The use of anti-retrovirus in places near the first casualties of the virus taking care to stay away from them.

As for the bird flu, it must take the following measures to reduce the spread:
Quarantine the infected animals or near to kill her and then after that
Cleansing machines used to prevent infection in case of use in other places
Separation of animal species during the breeding, each type separately in isolation from the other type
Encourage educators to announce the infected cases immediately preview
