How serious are the consequences of pork flu?
According to Jacob Bogatin each case of disease caused by a pork flu in current flash is unique. In Mexico death and heavy outcomes are registered. In the USA cases of disease of moderate degree are fixed. However the tendency can cardinally change. The virus can mutate, thus degree of its influence can either become severe or vice versa – lessen. Scientists carry out careful researches to define the current tendency of development of a virus of pork flu, however experts from World Health Organization remind of well-known data, that occurrences of a virus of flu cannot be expected just as character and time of a mutation of a virus.
Why is deadly threat from an infection of pork flu higher in Mexico in comparison with the USA?
There are not known reasons of heavier disease in Mexico in comparison with the USA. Jacob Bogatin says that only in one of the first 20 registered cases of disease in the USA hospitalisation then at the patient there has come full recover was required. Experts of the Center in the control and preventive maintenance of diseases actively carry out the comparative analysis of differences between disease cases in Mexico and the USA.
Is it the first flash of epidemics of pork flu?
Yes. In 1976 epidemics of pork flu among recruits in a city the Fort-diks, piece of New Jersey has been fixed. Epidemics lasted for a month then disappeared as is inexplicable, as well as has arisen. 240 people have caught a virus and one person has died.
The pork flu fixed in a city the Fort-diks was a virus strain H1N1. The same strain has caused a disastrous pandemic of flu in 1918-1919 having taken away a life of tens millions of people.
Concern probability a new pandemic of a virus strain H1N1 in the winter of 1976 has outgrown in the large-scale program on creation of a vaccine and realisation of vaccination of all Americans against pork flu. The program on population vaccination has been interfaced to the various difficulties, one of which was the mass belief, that this vaccine has caused unknown quantity of heavy collateral reactions. Jacob Bogatin reveals the information that after 40 million people have passed vaccination the program has been stopped.
However subsequently new epidemic of pork flu has not arisen.
I was vaccinated from pork flu in 1976. Will this help me to resist the current virus?
The new virus of pork flu differs from a virus of 1976. Thus there is no guarantee, whether the vaccine of more then 30 years ago will still be effective.
