KTNT - After some time im Ang, influenza A/H5N1 services began to appear in the service influenza A/H1N1 and dengue fever are still complicated development. How to deal with all kinds of diseases are the concern of many people. Around this problem, we had a talk with Mr. Nguyen Huy Nga, Director of Department of Preventive Health and Environment (Ministry of Health).

Notified by the World Health Organization (WHO), some countries in the Americas appeared song the dengue and influenza A/H1N1 in an individual. In Vietnam, the Institute of Infectious Diseases and Tropical countries also announced a second case of simultaneous development of both influenza A/H1N1 virus and dengue fever.
However, there are no studies showing that there is a combination of these two viruses. The two co-infected with this disease more difficult for the treatment of disease diagnosis and clinical landscape is worse than when infected with a disease alone. Next time, the Health Ministry will conduct training for health workers in line to update knowledge of the influenza A/H1N1 infection and hemorrhage, as well as patients likely infected with the other, to minimize complications and mortality for patients.
In the north, entering the winter, do people fear the emergence of influenza A/H5N1, sir?
We in the North, translated dengue tend to decrease. It influenza A/H1N1 and influenza A/H5N1 often appear in cold weather, wet. Thus, when entering the northern winter is the flu outbreak of this kind can occur completely.
The only measure to prevent influenza is vaccination effective vaccines. Could you tell us, never the first batch of vaccine to be about our country and the audience will be given priority?
We do not have a formal announcement on the timing of vaccine to Vietnam. According to the WHO final report, expected in November will have the vaccine but the first or between December we have.
Quality of vaccines produced in the world can not meet at once to all global citizens. WHO recommends, will for the immediate object is high risk of death as pregnant women, people infected chronic ... Therefore, we propose the plan to prioritize vaccination of pregnant women from January 3 or more, patients with diabetes, cardiovascular ... Medical staff directly treating patients infected influenza will also be a priority.
We will concentrate in those regions in which the limited amount of vaccine?
Ministry of Health are asking for detailed guidance. Advisory Council vaccines, the Steering Committee to organize vaccination campaigns have also proposed a number of options. First, the vaccine for all pregnant women over 3 months in all provinces and cities. Second, if there are more vaccines, we will organize a vaccination for the country. Where high population density, with deaths due to influenza A/H1N1, which dispersed power service, many people with chronic diseases focus ... will be the priority areas.
The goal of the first vaccination is not reducing the number of questions reduced incidence in people at high risk, serious complications or death.
However, some research results showed that side effects of flu vaccines A/H1N1co may occur in some rare cases such as mild fever, a sore, nausea, sore throat. The symptoms from the mild and quickly through.
