Recent statistics show that people with influenza are most at risk of severe disease with swine flu are:
* People with diabetes at any time.
* Pregnant women.
* Children under 5.
* People with chronic kidney disease.
* People with chronic heart disease.
* The with asthma.
* People with liver disease.
* The oppressed with an immune system.
Dr. Anne Schuchat, CDC Deputy Director-Interim ReportScience and Public Health, said the United States, most of them, the influence of having been admitted to hospital because) they were 5 to 24 years old age group (62%, and those over 55 accounted for only 1% of swine.
A new study tracking the epidemic in Mexico, noted that the H1N1 flu faced by those groups aged between 20 and 50 the hardest, with a higher mortality rate than other age groups.
The consensus seems to be of the opinion that the virus is much more likelyyoung and old. Sir Liam Donaldson, Chief Medical Officer of the United Kingdom since 1998, said the flu virus from a human being is a part of animal (pig), part bird and part, and the human element that had passed into circulation, with the result that the immune system of elderly people are able to offer some protection, which means that young people will take precedence, if a vaccine could be available.
World Health Organization (WHO) data show that on July 6that 94 512 cases and 429 deaths. It 's more than likely that many more people were infected, but are not listed, why not consult a doctor.
Swine flu shares
Should think that the capture by the H1N1 virus in its mild form can provide some protection to offer a virulent strain caused in the winter. History shows this is done in 1918, when a mild spring followed by an outbreak of two deadly waves stretchingthe following year.
Mumsnet founder Justine Roberts said the BBC Radio 4 Today program that he "had heard rumors of" parts instead of swine flu.
"There are a lot of talk from people who take a fairly reasonable conclusion that it would be better, since the virus so far that we all think it could mutate into a virulent strain come next winter," he told them.
specialists in infectious diseases to understand the reasonscaptures the mild strain as a protective measure, but Dr. Anne Moscona, a flu expert at Weill Medical College of Cornell University, said that the parties had swine flu was told by a journalist for women a journal to keep asking "When should mothers, such as chickenpox parties.
"I think it's completely crazy," said Dr. Moscona. "I can not believe people are actually doing. I understand the thought, but I'm afraid we do not know enough about how this virus will respond,in each individual. It 's like the Middle Ages, when people are deliberately infected with smallpox. His vaccination Vigilante - you know, under the immunity in their own hands. "
Maybe going to try to catch the virus at an early stage of development aid is just that it spread?
