Swine flu infection is a contagious disease is spread through breathing. Transmitted when the pigs due to the proliferation of Class "A" virus "influenza." The transmission of the virus to humans is not common, but is likely if the friction with the permanent pigs.
According to the World Health Organization, the transmission of infection among humans may be due to the emergence of a new species of this virus is transmitted among humans.
What are the symptoms of this disease?
Symptoms of the disease are similar to seasonal influenza symptoms: fever, cough, runny snotty, joints and muscles. These symptoms are difficult to delayed diagnosis and treatment of the epidemic can cause chest disease may be fatal.
How the virus spread?
Infection is usually transmitted from pigs to humans, but the recording of cases of infection occurred among the people themselves through breathing. This epidemic is not transmitted through eating pork.
Is there a new type of swine flu?
As is the case in humans, the influenza viruses are constantly changing with the pork. When the pigs in the respiratory apparatus, are sensitive to the MBC as the most watched on influenza viruses and human or pig influenza. Pork is a "focal point" is conducive to the emergence of new influenza viruses by genetic combinations in cases of concurrent infection.
Such hybrid viruses concern the emergence of a new flu virus, such as a severe flu, but is subject to, such as the transmission of human influenza. This type of virus, which is unknown to the human immune system, may include specifications necessary for the spread of pandemic influenza on a large scale.
Any cure for this epidemic?
There are preventive measures of this disease is to isolate the injured, wearing breathing masks, wash hands constantly. There is Antidote to the epidemic but it turned out ineffective. There are also vaccines to prevent the proliferation of anti virus within the body.
There is a vaccine against the disease of pigs. It is not for humans. The Mexican authorities announced, citing the World Health Organization that the vaccine is still in conformity with an earlier version of the virus to make it less effective. But "the production of a vaccine is possible if the virus has been identified," but requires "some time" said the World Health Organization.
Degrees of warning by the World Health Organization:
Class 1: The risk of a limited threat to rights.
Class 2: The risk of a slightly larger threat to human
Class 3: Non-existence or the existence of some cases of infection among humans.
Class 4: transmission between humans and the evolution of the degree of the epidemic.
Class 5: the virus is spreading among humans in two, at least in one region.
Class 6: transmission to the global level and the recording of cases in more than one region of the world
