2. Preparedness Efforts
  1. Avian Influenza Preparedness
  2. Pandemic Influenza Preparedness

16
A. Avian Influenza Preparedness
17
Detection
  • Testing in
  • Migratory birds
  • Poultry industry

18
Preparedness Planning
  • Poultry workers
  • Backyard flock owners
  • Others bird lovers, hunters

19
General Public
  • Food safety
  • Bird handling

20
B. Pandemic Influenza Preparedness
  • Pan Flu

21
Significant Issues forPan Flu Planning
  • Mass Casualty Management
  • Vaccines Antivirals
  • Detection and Tracking
  • Home Care
  • Hospital Care
  • Food and Other Support
  • Transportation of the Critically Ill
  • Self Support
  • Basic Services and Economic Impact
  • Communication
  • Quarantine and Isolation

22
Pandemic Assumptions
  • Attack rate of 25-35
  • Duration of up to year or more in 2 waves
  • Each wave lasting 6-8 weeks in community
  • Healthcare system will be severely taxed if not
    overwhelmed

23
Social Disruption fromPandemic Influenza
  • Absenteeism in essential sectors
  • Health, law enforcement, food
  • and fuel supplies, education
  • Economic impact
  • Psychological stress

24
2006 vs 1918
  • Advantages in 1918
  • Smaller population
  • Less travel
  • More self-reliance
  • Advantages in 2006
  • Healthier population
  • Better medical care
  • Preparedness

25
Federal Preparedness

27
Components of Federal Plan
  • Community Disease Control
  • Travel-Related Risks of Disease
  • Communications
  • Workforce Support
  • Surveillance
  • Laboratory Diagnostics
  • Healthcare Planning
  • Infection Control
  • Clinical Guidelines
  • Vaccine
  • Antiviral Drugs

28
Selected Components
  • Vaccine
  • Antivirals
  • Community Disease Control

29

Vaccines
30
Assumptions for Vaccination
  • Two doses will be required
  • Vaccine will not be available for 3-6 months
    after start of pandemic
  • Production will be 3-5 million doses (15 µg)per
    week

31
Vaccine Priority Groups
  • Vaccine and antiviral manufacturers
  • Health care providers
  • Persons gt65 with gt1 high risk conditions
  • Persons 6 mo to 64 yr with gt2 conditions
  • Persons gt6 months with history of hospitalization
    for pneumonia or influenza
  • Pregnant women
  • Household contacts of immunocompromised persons
    and children lt6 months
  • Public health emergency response workers
  • Key government leaders

32
Vaccine Priority Groups (cont)
  • Healthy people gt65
  • 6 months to 64 years with 1 high risk condition
  • Healthy 6-23 months old
  • Other public health emergency workers
  • Public safety workers
  • Utility workers
  • Transportation workers
  • Telecommunications workers
  • Government health decision-makers
  • Funeral directors
  • Healthy persons 2-64 years not included above
    (180 million)

33
Recommendations for Vaccine and Antivirals may be
modified based on
  • Virulence
  • Transmissibility
  • Drug resistance
  • Geographic spread
  • Age-specific attack rates
  • Morbidity and mortality rates

34
What You Can Do Now
  • Annual seasonal influenza vaccination
  • Pneumococcal vaccination

35
Antivirals

36
Antivirals
  • Adamantanes
  • Amantadine
  • Rimantadine
  • Neuraminidase inhibitors
  • Oseltamivir (Tamiflu)
  • Zanamivir (Relenza)

37
Assumptions for Antivirals
  • Resistance to adamantanes
  • Neuraminidase inhibitors will be effective in
    decreasing morbidity and mortality
  • Expected domestic capacity for oseltamivir is
    1.25 million courses per month
  • Goal is stockpile of 80 million courses
  • Current stockpile is 5 million courses

38
Antiviral Priority Groups
  1. Patients admitted to hospital (T)
  2. Health care workers and EMS providers (T)
  3. Immunocompromised persons and pregnant women (T)
  4. Pandemic health responders and government
    decision makers (T)
  5. Young children 12-23 months old, persons gt65
    years old, and persons with underlying medical
    conditions (T)
  6. Outbreak response in nursing homes (PEP)
  7. 7 Health care workers in ED, ICU, dialysis
    centers and EMS providers (P)

39
Antiviral Priority Groups (cont)
  • Pandemic societal responders and health care
    workers without direct patient contact (T)
  • Other outpatients (T)
  • Highest risk outpatients (P)
  • Other health care workers with direct patient
    contact (P)
  • Top 7 groups 40 million courses

40
Cost of Antiviral Treatment5-Day Course for an
Adult
  • Amantadine 9.50
  • Rimantadine 16.10
  • Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) 72.10
  • Zanamivir (Relenza) 61.80

41
Personal Stockpiles of Antivirals
  • Supply
  • Effectiveness
  • Resistance
  • Equity
  • Shelf life

42
Stockpiles of Antivirals
  • Institutional
  • State

43
Community Disease Control

44
Challenges to Containment
  • Short incubation period
  • Ability of persons with asymptomatic infection to
    transmit virus
  • Early symptoms of illness are likely to be
    non-specific, delaying recognition

45
Goal of Community Disease Control
  • To limit or slow spread of pandemic influenza
  • Social Distancing

46

47
Containment Measures for Ill Individuals
  • Patient isolation
  • Management of contacts
  • Contact tracing
  • Contact monitoring
  • Quarantine

48
Containment Measures For Communities
  • Promotion of community-wide infection control
    measures
  • Snow days and self-shielding
  • Closure of office buildings, shopping buildings,
    and public transportation
  • Widespread community containment (cordon
    sanitaire)

49
Containment Measures For Groups of Exposed or
At-Risk Persons
  • Quarantine
  • Containment measures for specific sites or
    buildings

50
Unresolved Issues
  • Role of airborne transmission
  • Effectiveness of antivirals
  • Coordination between states and countries
