Tamiflu-resistance gene in H7N9 bird flu spurs drug tests

A gene mutation known to help influenza resist Tamiflu was found in the first of three H7N9 bird-flu patient specimens in China, sequence data show.

The flu virus from the patient in Shanghai has a mutation known as R292K that causes high-level resistance to the Roche Holding AG (ROG) pill and reduced sensitivity to a related drug from GlaxoSmithKline Plc (GSK) called Relenza, genetic sequence information posted on the website of the Global Initiative on Sharing Avian Influenza Data show. Subsequent H7N9 specimens from a patient in Shanghai and one in Anhui province don’t show the mutation.

The finding of the mutation warrants further analysis, said Masato Tashiro, a director at Japan’s National Institute of Infectious Diseases in Tokyo. Preliminary tests so far show no evidence that the new flu strain, which has sickened at least 33 people, killing nine, in eastern China, has developed resistance to the neuraminidase inhibitor drugs Tamiflu and Relenza, the World Health Organization said in a statement yesterday.

“When you look at the raw data and compare the three strains of the virus, there’s a signal from one strain that it’s less sensitive to both of the neuraminidase inhibitors,” Tashiro said in a telephone interview. “It’s not a strong signal, but there’s a possibility” of resistance, he said.

The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Beijing has studied H7N9 specimens and confirmed that the virus is sensitive to neuraminidase inhibitors, Tashiro said.

“At this point, we should accept what the Chinese CDC says,” he said.

More experiments are needed to understand the biological significance of gene sequence data, said Gavin Smith, an associate professor in the emerging infectious diseases program at Singapore’s Duke-NUS medical school.

Absence of the R292K mutations “would be of less concern than having them there, but it still needs to be tested,” said Smith. “They provide an indication of the type of things we should be looking at.”

H7N9 found in more poultry samples in China

China's agriculture authority said on Wednesday that its tests have found 14 more H7N9-positive poultry samples in east China.

The avian flu virus, so far responsible for the deaths of nine people nationwide, was detected in 11 chicken samples from Jiangsu, two duck samples from Zhejiang and one duck sample from Anhui Province, the Ministry of Agriculture said in a statement.

All of the samples were collected from poultry markets in those regions.

After gene sequence analysis, the national avian flu reference laboratory concluded that the strain of the H7N9 virus found on those 14 samples was highly congeneric with that found on a pigeon on April 4.

The ministry has ordered the three provinces to shut down the marketplaces from which the samples were taken and cull all live poultry there. Thorough disinfection is obligatory.http://www.china.org.cn/china/2013-04/10/content_28507469.htm?

CHINA TO SUSPEND LIVE POULTRY SALES

Published April 10, 2013 @ 10:52 am / Lyssa Hansen

As China’s bird flu death toll rises to nine, the country has to decided to suspend the sales of live poultry in large commercial cities. This includes Shanghai and surrounding markets.

Infected birds and even caged pigeons are being slaughtered to prevent the H7N9 virus from spreading.

Indonesia is also suspending poultry imports from China. It is a temporary ban that will be lifted as soon as Chinese health officials deem the country free of the bird flu.

The World Health Organization and Chinese officials say the outbreak is still considered to be at a manageable level.

So far, China health officials have confirmed 31 cases of the H7N9 bird flu in eastern China.

There is still no word on whether the W.H.O. will send a team of experts to track the virus.

Pigs to be tested for virus

Updated: 2013-04-11 
China's agriculture authority has expanded the monitoring for the H7N9 strain of bird flu to pigs in order to have a better understanding of the virus that had infected at least 33 people by Wednesday.

Monitoring pigs, in addition to poultry and wild birds, may provide a deeper understanding of H7N9, including its origin, host range, route of transmission and the degree of harm, according to the Ministry of Agriculture. The ministry issuedan emergency monitoring plan this week in response to the outbreak of H7N9.

Experts said that pigs have been included in the plan in an effort to better explore the transmission route, since it is still unknown why and how the bird flu virus infects human beings.

The World Health Organization said on its website that its analyses of the genes of influenza A H7 viruses have shown signs of adaptation to grow in mammalian species.

"These adaptations include an ability to bind to mammalian cells and to grow at temperatures close to the normal body temperature of mammals (which is lower than that of birds)," it said.

The monitoring plan is trying to find evidence of adaptation if there is any, said Sun Quanhui, a science adviser at the World Society for the Protection of Animals.

"By expanding the exclusion range of virus infection, the authorities will provide more scientific evidence that will help control and prevent human infection of H7N9," said Sun.

Yao Jiezhang, a veterinarian and spokesman for the Beijing Bureau of Agriculture's animal husbandry and veterinary station, said that if pigs were found carrying the virus, people would get infected more easily.

"Since we share more similarities in cells and body temperature with pigs than poultry, the likeliness of receiving the virus from pigs is larger than from birds," he added.

According to the plan, the animal disease control and prevention center of the Agriculture Ministry will take samples nationwide from live bird markets, slaughterhouses, poultry farms and wild bird habitats, and test them for viruses.01:37

Human infection with influenza A(H7N9) virus in China–update (WHO, April 10 2013, edited)

Human infection with influenza A(H7N9) virus in China – update

10 April 2013

As of 10 April 2013 (18:00 CET), the National Health and Family Planning Commission notified WHO of an additional four laboratory-confirmed cases of human infection with influenza A(H7N9) virus. Of the laboratory-confirmed cases, two are from Shanghai and two from Zhejiang.

The first patient is a 62-year-old man from Shanghai who became ill on 1 April 2013, the second patient is a 77 year-old man from Shanghai who became ill on 3 April 2013, the third patient is a 51 year-old woman from Zhejiang who became ill on 13 March, and the fourth patient is a 79 year-old man from Zhejiang who became ill on 29 March 2013.

In addition, two patients earlier reported from Jiangsu (83-year-old man) and Anhui (35-year-old woman) have died.

To date, a total of 28 cases have been laboratory confirmed with influenza A(H7N9) virus in China, including nine deaths, 14 severe cases and five mild cases.

More than 600 close contacts of the confirmed cases are being closely monitored. In Jiangsu, investigation is ongoing into a contact of an earlier confirmed case who developed symptoms of illness.

The Chinese government is actively investigating this event and has heightened disease surveillance.

Retrospective testing of recently reported cases with severe respiratory infection may uncover additional cases that were previously unrecognized.

An inter-government task force has been formally established, with the National Health and Family Planning Commission leading the coordination along with the Ministry of Agriculture and other key ministries.

The animal health sector has intensified investigations into the possible sources and reservoirs of the virus.

WHO is in contact with national authorities and is following the event closely.

The WHO-coordinated international response is also focusing on work with WHO Collaborating Centres for Reference and Research on Influenza and other partners to ensure that information is available and that materials are developed for diagnosis and treatment and vaccine development.

No vaccine is currently available for this subtype of the influenza virus.

Preliminary test results provided by the WHO Collaborating Centre in China suggest that the virus is susceptible to the neuraminidase inhibitors (oseltamivir and zanamivir).

At this time there is no evidence of ongoing human-to-human transmission.

WHO does not advise special screening at points of entry with regard to this event, nor does it recommend that any travel or trade restrictions be applied.

About this Disease Outbreak News

1. WHO is currently publishing information on laboratory confirmed cases received through the official notification from the Chinese National International Health Regulations (IHR) Focal Point once a day. This formal notification and publication follows verification of the information, and may therefore come after, or not include, some cases reported through public media and other sources.
2. To date, there is limited information to determine whether the reported number of cases represents some or all of the cases actually occurring. As some relatively mild cases of illness have now been reported, it is possible that there are other such cases that have not been identified and reported.
3. If the current pattern of sporadic infections continues, WHO will cease frequent reporting of case numbers, and focus its Disease Outbreak News on new developments or changes in the pattern or presentation of infections.

The death of retired professor at Wuhan University survey: Shanghai to H7N9 patients?

Core Tip: In the consultation, a doctor suspected patients infected with H7N9, but other experts do not support this assertion. I also repeatedly asked whether Dr. Xiang Zhuzhi exclude H7N9 infection, why not report detection, the doctor first vague, then said it was not his personal decision, but the hospital from a political point of view to consider the decision. "Huang Chunwei said.Peter Wong Shiu Qi, 33, 85-year-old retired professor of Wuhan University, People's Hospital of Wuhan University (Hubei Provincial People's Hospital), passed away in the evening of 11 April 8.

"My father is sick in Shanghai by the end of March the hospital, previously every three days will go live poultry market to buy chicken. After reversal of Wuhan medical treatment, the prevalence of symptoms of suspected H7N9 virus infection, hospital consultation only experience conclude that has nothing to do with this, and refused to do a special test. "Peter Wong Shiu-chi's son Huangchun Wei, said the reporter, reminded by the kindly doctor friend, he was asked to do the pathological examination to rule out H7N9 hospital, but was refused.Then successively CDC to Wuhan City, Hubei Province, the CDC and the National Center for Disease called to report the height suspected H7N9 cases, but are subject to each other to push Wei, said that should the hospital report.

"Special period, should do such suspected H7N9 cases confirmed (exclude) detection. Huangchun Wei told this newspaper that the remains of his father to stay in the morgue, and pathology detection does not understand the hospital refused.

"My father's death, in the end associated with H7N9 or without, this is not only related to the safety of my family, because they are in close contact, in addition also related to public safety." Huangchun Wei said.

According to official sources, so far, Hubei no confirmed or suspected cases of H7N9, April 10, the reporter contacted the Information Office of the Health Department of Hubei Province, a Chus deputy director, responded that the expert group has been established, the ongoing The survey, the results will be published on the official website.

3 o'clock in the afternoon of the 10th, the Office network responds by displaying: Hubei Province Health Department has sent 4 Hubei Province of human infection of H7N9 avian influenza members of the Group, in conjunction with the relevant the urban expert group members to the hospital, on the death of the patients medical records After treatment the survey. The investigation concluded that the cases of severe pneumonia, bacterial sepsis, multiple organ failure; coronary heart disease, acute myocardial infarction, left ventricular failure, cardiogenic shock; under human infection with the H7N9 avian flu prevention and control program (the first Edition), claimed that the patients with non-human infection of H7N9 avian influenza surveillance case.

The Shanghai patients: incidence to go through the live bird markets

The evening of April 8, severe Branch of the People's Hospital of Wuhan University, 85-year-old Peter Wong Shiu Qi is pronounced dead, but so far, Huangchun Wei did not receive the death notice issued by the hospital, also said the hospital's electronic medical records has not been to get. Although the hospital that Peter Wong Shiu-chi's disease has nothing to do with H7N9, Huang Chunwei think, do not rule out this possibility.

"My father is hospitalized for a total of eight days, the father long live Wuhan early March, his parents received Shanghai sojourn after March 25, the father of the sudden high fever, Shanghai hospital diagnosed as pneumonia." Huang Chunwei introduced his father Body temperature was maintained at about 39 ℃, each time after eating antipyretics effective short-term, but eight hours after the rebound. Fever fifth day, Wong Shiu Qi began mild cough, sputum with bloodshot eyes, a bit of asthma, the condition is deteriorating.

Nothing to say for the People's Hospital of Wuhan University, Peter Wong Shiu the chi's condition with H7N9, Huang Chunwei misgivings: "My father is sick suddenly, usually in good health, but also not too the cardiopulmonary aspects and any other disease."

"While living in Shanghai, the parents every day will go to the bazaars to buy food, live poultry market trading. Every 35 days, the parents will buy back in the market is to kill the chicken if the H7N9 virus in the market, he fully likely to come into contact with. "Huang Chunwei suspect that the father may be infected with the avian flu is not totally unfounded.

Huang Chunwei said there is a speculation that is provided by the hospital as his father is in negative pressure rooms as the prevention and control of highly infectious cases. Chaperoned during the family in the hospital, medical staff also dissuaded stranded, said "your patients come from the affected areas (Shanghai)."

Asked to do the H7N9 detection is refused

"On the day hospital consultation participate doctors highly suspected H7N9 avian influenza infection into the negative pressure rooms as the height of the prevention and control of infectious cases, provisional diagnosis of unknown severe pneumonia, and requested that the family would like to buy Tamiflu treatment, during which the hospital more than entry of bacteria and virus detection had no found, but has not been reported to the CDC and the H7N9 virus test but the the consultation conclusion that has nothing to do with H7N9. asking that, in the consultation, a doctor suspected in patients infected with H7N9 from within, but other experts do not support this assertion. Dr. Xiang Zhuzhi repeatedly asked whether to exclude H7N9 infection, why not report detected, the doctor first vague, then said it was not his personal decision, but the hospital is considered from the political point of view decision.

  Fact: The competent health authority in Rendsburg-Eckernförde has been on since Friday. When police Neumünster hygiene instructions are issued to the officials, offered voluntary blood tests that some officials have claimed.

  But what causes the deadly disease knows far nobody. Wednesday evening announced the District Rendsburg-Eckernförde: "Despite all the efforts of the participating specialists have failed to date to identify a pathogen."

  The danger is, however, to be small. District spokesman Martin Schmedtje: "A recommendation for precautionary closure of public facilities by the health services is not required. General hygiene measures as useful in times of rampant flu are sufficient.
