“Swine Flu (H1N1)”

•H1N1 flu, commonly called as Swine Flu and it is known such as people in early days were

caught of this disease because of their direct contact with pigs.

•Strange fact is that, many years ago, everything had changed and a new strain has emerged,

which is infected even though there is no direct contact with pigs.

Influenza A (H1N1) virus is the subtype of influenza A virus that was the most common cause

of human influenza (flu).

•In India, death toll rises to 2100 and reported cases are more than 15,000 all over the

country (according to the Health Ministry Reports).

•In this situation, it is imperative to prevent it and follow necessary measures to stop it.

A pandemic disease, Swine Flu is spreading wide in India and a deadly virus responsible for that disease is H1N1.

Introduction:

Spread of H1N2 across India.

Statistics on Death toll & reported cases : “30% likely to get infected from Swine Flu (H1N1)” .

Symptoms:•Swine Flu is a contagious disease and most of its symptoms are just like normal flu:

•Fever, rise in body temperature

•Sever cough & Body aches most importantly

•Running nose

•Sore throat

•Headache & fatigue

•Vomiting

•Abdominal pain

•This disease can be spread to others from one day before the infected exhibit symptoms to as many

as 7 days after they get sick.

•Swine flu can turn more complicated resulting in respiratory failure, diabetes, asthma or pneumonia.

Treatment for Swine Flu:

•It is better treated through antiviral drugs, most of them which are used to treat seasonal flu.

•Drugs like Tamiflu & Zanamivir are the most chosen because they help us recover faster.

•One important point to be noted is, some strains of swine flu are resistant to Tamiflu drug.

•These drugs can relieve it to the maximum and when used within 2 days of the first symptoms

appearance, they help better.

•Since this is caused by virus but not bacteria, antibiotics can never help.

Swine Flu Vaccination:•The same flu vaccine that protects against seasonal flu also protects against the

H1N1 swine flu strain.

•You can get it as a shot or as a nasal spray.

•Either way, it "teaches" your immune system to attack the real virus.

Besides a flu shot, there are other things you can do to stay healthy:• Wash your hands throughout the day with soap and water. Sing the "Happy Birthday" song twice to make sure you've washed long enough. Or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.•Don't touch your eyes, nose or mouth.•Avoid people who are sick.
