BACKGROUND OF THE DISEASE
  • Mid March a new strain of flu virus similar to
    one seen in pigs was infecting human in Mexico.
  • Mid April the confirmed cases started popping
    out in US and around the world.
  • June, 11th WHO officially declared the flu
    pandemic. As the flu was spreading, WHO named
    Influenza Type A (H1N1) and now refers to it as
    Pandemic (H1N1) 2009.
  • Based on Ministry of Health, the total cases are
    1460 cases with 8 death.
  • From 1460 cases, 574 are imported cases (39.4)
    and 886 are local cases (60.6).
  • 1410 (96.5) cases have been recovered, 27 (1.8)
    cases are having the antiviral treatment at
    hospital, 10 of them in Intensive Care Unit, 23
    (1) are having antiviral treatment at home.
  • OUTSIDE MALAYSIA
  • IN MALAYSIA

WHAT IS H1N1?
  • Subtype of influenza virus A and the most common
    cause of influenza flu in human.
  • H1N1 strains caused roughly half of all human flu
    infections in 2006.
  • Other strains are endemic in pigs (swine flu) and
    in birds (avian flu).
  • It is categorized according to 2 types of
    proteins found on the surface of the virus
    Hemagglutinin(H) and neuraminidase(N)
  • All influenza A virus have these proteins but the
    structures differ from due to rapid genetic
    mutation in viral genome.

CAUSES OF H1N1
9
  • This new virus was first detected in people in
    the United States in April 2009. This virus is
    spreading from person-to- person worldwide, in
    much the same way that regular seasonal influenza
    viruses spread.
  • Influenza A, H1N1 caused particular strain of the
    influenza virus. This particular strain A-
    H1N1/09 originated in pigs (swine) but has
    changed itself to be infective to humans.
  • This originally infected only pigs and they
    spread it from one infected hog to other hogs the
    same way it spreads in people, by direct contact
    or by droplets holding the virus in the air after
    a pig coughed or sneezed. Because pigs are
    physiologically very similar to humans, when they
    have been living closely with humans, some
    microbes that can infect them are able to be
    changed or mutated into strains that people can
    catch.

MALAYSIAN Government measures
  • Since the Nipah virus outbreak in 1999, the
    Malaysian Health Ministry have put in place
    processes to be better prepared to protect the
    Malaysian population from the threat of
    infectious diseases. Malaysia was fully prepared
    during the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
    (SARS) situation (Malaysia was not a SARS
    affected country) and the episode of the H5N1
    (bird flu) outbreak in 2004.
