Sydney virus linked to gastro cases

Date

January 21, 2013

A VOMITING bug sweeping through Britain, Europe and the United States could infect about half a million Australians this winter, warn scientists who identified the new strain.

The norovirus variant known as Sydney 2012 was identified last March by the University of NSW and the Prince of Wales Hospital.

The virus has become the dominant strain in Britain, infecting about 1.2 million people and resulting in dozens of hospital ward closures, the nation's Health Protection Agency said last week.

It is also suspected to be behind the recent gastroenteritis outbreaks aboard several cruise ships.

The virus was only responsible for about a quarter of the gastroenteritis infections in NSW last year, but was to blame for about 75 per cent of infections in Adelaide, said Professor Peter White from the UNSW science faculty.

Professor White, who led the team that identified Sydney 2012, estimated the virus could infect more than 400,000 Australians this winter to become the dominant strain.

Professor White said the virus would likely hit child and aged-care facilities and hospitals hardest and could result in ward closures.

The virus causes vomiting and diarrhoea for one to three days but can be fatal for vulnerable groups, including the elderly.

Professor White said infected people should wait 48 hours after symptoms subside before returning to work, school or childcare to prevent the spread of the disease.

Anticipated Economic Motives, H5N1 virus spread to Indonesia

Saturday, January 19, 2013 - 12:47 
Surabaya, Seruu.Com - Related to the spread of bird flu occurred about two weeks, from the results of the study Asian Influenza Research Center (AIRC) Airlangga University Surabaya, show bird flu is a new type of variant. Even AIRC Unair suspected bird flu variant is intentionally inserted into Indonesia by certain people for economic interests.
"The research team at the University of Airlangga Blitar, Lamongan and a number of other areas in Central Java showed virus circulating now is a new variant. But at least if the team's findings Unair vaccine developed by the government, at least temporarily able to overcome or even just worked perfectly, "Dr. CA Nidhom, AIRC chairman Airlangga University Surabaya, as quoted by Media Students Airlangga, Saturday (18/01/2013). More details of Dr CA Nidhom explain the existence of bird flu (H5N1), which in the world is made ​​up of 9 variants. And since the advent of bird flu in 2003, variants into Indonesia is a variant number 2. In Indonesia, two of the variants, there are more variants spread 2.1 which occurred in 2003. Then continue to be sub variant that attacks chickens 2.1.1. But in 2005, the second variant subnya grow again into sub-variant of 2.1.2 that attack poultry, pigs, cats and others. Further developing the sub variant 2.1.3 attacking everything, including human beings. "For a virus to spread at this time, not from Indonesia. Variants in the 2.3.2 and the origin of the East and West China. So we suspect if the variant virus that is currently spreading deliberately incorporated into Indonesia from abroad for economic reasons, "said Dr. CA Nidhom. According Nidhom, virus variants that put people from abroad are in fact for the chicken, but it leaked and were attacked by a duck . So, no economic impact is not too severe. addition, given the spread of bird flu that happened lately. One possibility for the occurrence of bird migration on a large scale. Both because of deliberate import meat from abroad, and even worse, if the virus were deliberately inserted. "Our concern today are viruses that attack the duck this time it jumped to attack chickens. And economically, the public needs to chicken, much bigger than the ducks, "explained Nidhom. Due fearing leap of virus that attacks the ducks and chickens are attacking move, Airlangga University Surabaya AIRC Team, urged the public, especially farmers ducks take necessary measures. The first step, duck not given water from streams or other drainage. Since the largest possible spread of bird flu virus is currently developing from drainage water.  http://www.seruu.com/utama/nasional/...medium=twitter

Nidom says a million ducks dead, and a few other interesting things

He also mentions possible intentional spread to Indo.
This reports also mentions that the bf spread is worse because ducks live in water, unlike chickens, and that helps spread the cheese. This was reported also within the last couple of weeks. He sounds like he is saying he has a human vaccine but the gov't won't fund its production.. 

This strain is already attacking chickens and if anyone has a doubt, I could start a "Dead chickens in Indo"page... all I would need is 30 hrs a day and 1 ton of coffee.

So, if you say the chickens are dying from one strain and ducks from another, that is not a good picture either and both animals are more than likely dying in close proximity and the 2 strains will likely mix together sooner or later.. but better ask a scientist for sure!! I haven't seen that little statement mentioned anywhere yet .

So for arguments sake, say the chickens are dying from the new strain only.. there is not and will not be enuff animal vaccine to take care of it anytime soon and they are already doubling the old vaccine dosage. If the old and new strain can mix together, then whatever vaccine they are working on, or had, will be no good...


AIRC Unair Find Bird Flu Vaccine
Hurry Less Government Respond

SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 2013




SURABAYA - MMA
Tim Bird Flu Research Center handling or Asian Influenza Research Center (AIRC) University of Airlangga (Airlangga University), Surabaya, managed to find a vaccine to address the spread of bird flu in humans. But the government seemed slow, so the findings are not yet developed for the treatment of bird flu citizens.
"It's over anyway, but yet to be developed by the government. I do not know why the government has not developed. Fact, if the vaccine is passed (ed: development), it helps to combat the spread of bird flu to humans," said Dr CA Nidhom, AIRC chairman Airlangga University Surabaya , the Student Media Airlangga (Thursday 01/17/2013)

Explained, strategically, found the vaccine to humans are associated with economic reasons. Because if you make a vaccine for poultry, the costs will be even greater because the number of birds in Indonesia many times more than the total population. Besides poultry are also evenly spread across the land in Indonesia.
"Citizens are vaccinated. So immune to the spread of bird flu and are not afraid anymore, and free to go anywhere," added Dr. CA Nidhom.

New Bird Flu Variant

Related to the spread of bird flu occurred about two weeks, from Airlangga University Surabaya AIRC results, showing the bird flu is a new type of variant. Even AIRC Unair suspected bird flu variant is intentionally inserted into Indonesia by certain people for economic interests.

"The research team at the University of Airlangga Blitar, Lamongan and a number of other areas in Central Java showed virus circulating now is a new variant. But at least if the team's findings Unair vaccine developed by the government, at least not for a while or even overcome it works perfectly, "Dr. CA Nidhom.

More details of Dr CA Nidhom explain the existence of bird flu (H5N1), which in the world is made up of 9 variants. And since the advent of bird flu in 2003, variants into Indonesia is a variant number 2.

In Indonesia, two of the variants, there are more variants of 2.1 which spread occurred in 2003. Then continue to be sub variant that attacks chickens 2.1.1.
But in 2005, the second variant subnya grow again into sub-variant of 2.1.2 that attack poultry, pigs, cats and others. Further developing the sub variant 2.1.3 attacking everything, including humans.

"For a virus to spread at this time, not from Indonesia. Variants in the 2.3.2 and the origin of the East and West China.'s Why we suspect if the variant virus that is currently spreading deliberately incorporated into Indonesia from abroad for economic reasons," said Dr. CA Nidhom.

Communities and farmers are encouraged to drink to duck to use well water are sprayed with disinfectant. Even drinking ari advised to duck disinfected it, mixed or combined with betel leaf boiled water.

"From our research in a number of areas, drinking water for the ducks that plus a few drops of betel leaf stew, duck make the immune system stronger. Due to the betel leaf to cleanse the digestive duck," explained Nidhom.

Bird Flu Suspected In Duck Target revile Water

SURABAYA - M MA
Bird flu that attacked ducks or ducks that occurred in Indonesia, allegedly just as the first target and precisely target is actually water. Mauknya bird flu virus into the air and spread to a variety of living things that makes the researcher in Asian Influnza Research Center (AIRC) Universitas Airlangga (Airlangga University), Surabaya, worried.

"Bird flu attacking ducks at this time far more terrible than the attacking chickens. Due to the infected chickens, the virus only pollute the air and covered the mask is gone. But if attacking a duck, all the same polluting the water," said Dr Chaerul A Nidhom, Chairman AIRC Airlangga University Surabaya, the Media Students Airlangga , Thursday (01/17/2013).

According to experts, this bird flu, if the alleged target of the attack is water pollution, due to the nature of his life happy duck swimming in the water. Moreover, the condition of duck farmers in Indonesia, still rely on conventional models paraded by diangon or owners to the fields and rivers.
Ducks are diangon or paraded, the farmers can meet and feed the ducks can swim freely up to no stress. So with diangon, productivity levels duck eggs produced, experienced large increases.

"The bird flu virus this time deliberately spread to contaminate the water, because free-range ducks are the only animals that are native styles of Indonesian society. Which spread the virus already know and that is what started the trend of so-called bio-terrorists. This is what worries us the researchers, because if the attacking water especially when it coincided with the rainy season and a lot of flooding, the risk is very terrible for the community,"explained Dr Nidhom who claimed the early college funded cattle belonging to his mother's duck.

Economically addition, the total population of ducks in Indonesia there were 15 million to 20 million birds, a total of Rp 150 billion rupiah. Nominal scale which reached Rp 150 billion, the economic calculation, not as if the virus attacked chickens.

Appropriate animal virus that attacks the character, after being out there will be the same distance from the animal. but of analysis and sampling in the field by a team AIRC Airlangga University Surabaya, known level of similarity menyereng duck virus in Blitar and Lamongan, the distance is not far adrift with a bird flu virus that attacked ducks in Vietnam and China. But strangely, attacking ducks bird flu in Hong Kong, it is different from the bird flu that attacked ducks in China.

With the spread of bird flu virus that attacked ducks in Indonesia, Airlangga University Surabaya AIRC team, estimate the number of ducks that died about 1 million head. AIRC estimated figure is greater than the numbers released by the government, namely that as many as 500,000 ducks died of bird flu.
"Our estimates two times larger than the government, because of the current bird flu officials have no incentive anymore. Addition, many farmers do not report the death of the duck to the government, because the farmers do not get a replacement.'s Why the government should immediately intervene to influenza in ducks is that farmers remain, "added Dr Nidhom. http://wargatumpat.blogspot.com/2013...a-temukan.html
