AN1H1 in Serbia

Swine flu is a highly infectious disease caused by different strains of influenza virus. The incidence of this disease is high among pigs, but only 1-4 percent of cases end fatal outcome. Epidemics among pigs are relatively common and usually occur in autumn and winter, and a number of states conducted routine vaccination. Sometimes the infection can spread from animals to humans, and occasionally recorded epidemics and sporadic cases of illness of people. Of the three influenza virus genus (Latin Orthomyxoviridae) endemic to humans, the two are also endemic to pigs: influenza virus A and influenza virus B. [2], but the strains found in humans and pigs differ, however.
The first confirmed case of swine flu infection occurred in the town of La Gloria in the Mexican state of Veracruz, when the 2nd April 2009. stricken four Edgar Enrique Hernandez he is now regarded as "patient zero".
At the Belgrade is still less cases with infections, but the most difficult situation in this moment is in Uzice, Pozega and Kraljevo, as well as schools in Nis and Cacak. In Belgrade, on the other hand, kindergartens have increased measures to prevent spread of flu. There is no registered cases of illness from the new flu in preschools, but also consider the possibility of closing the nursery.
Serbia has declared A/N1H1 flu pandemic, The vice Minister of Health keeps inviting all persons from 6mo to 65 with health problems to get the shot. They are still inviting medical workers to get the vaccine, but most of the general family doctors are preferring not getting vaccinated. New flu vaccine free to all citizens, confirmed by the RTS. During the process of issuing licenses for marketing the vaccine, announced the Agency for Medicines and Medical Devices Serbia. New vaccines amounts between 8 and 10 December.
Many hospitals do not have the vaccine yet and most do not have any way to do analysis to prove or disprove any patient having the H1N1 flu. TIPS:

- Avoid touching the hands of individuals.

- Gurgle salt water twice a day (has the same effect on a healthy person as Tami flu to infected).

- Clean nostrils with watt sticks dipped in warm salt water at least once a day, after cleaning nose.

- Take hot drinks (tea, coffee ...) because it prevents the spread of the virus in the throat, took him in the stomach, where the virus can not survive and spread.

Everyday there are programs on the TV about this flu and all are saying the same as I have written above. The statistics are always quite contradictory as to the region with the most cases of people ill, but the most deaths and critical cases are being registered in the Naples area, supposedly because of high density of population.
Untill 28. november 18 people died in Serbia.
