What is Swine FluSwine influenza virus refers to influenza cases that are

caused by Orthomyxovirus endemic to pig populations. SIV strains isolated to date have been classified either as Influenza(virus C or one of the various subtypes of the genus Influenza virus A)

Page 3: Swine Flu & Aids

Swine Influenza (Flu)

Swine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza that regularly cause outbreaks of influenza among pigs. Swine flu viruses do not normally infect humans, however, human infections with swine flu do occur, and cases of human-to-human spread of swine flu viruses has been documented.

EPIDEMIOLOGY

The disease is considered endemic in the United States.

Outbreaks are also known to have occurred in North and South America, Europe, Africa (Kenya), Mexico and in parts of Asia.

Notable outbreaks:-

1918 - pandemic in humans

1976 - U.S. outbreak

1988 zoonosis – there was no community outbreak

1998 - US outbreak in swine

2007 - Philippine outbreak in swine

2009 - outbreak in humans

In India till today, 10233 cases have been reported of which 359 have died. Maximum cases have been reported from Pune(Maharashtra), Delhi, Karnataka & Tamilnadu.

The first fatality was a 14 year old girl from Pune. She had come in contact with 40 students who travelled from NASA in the US to Pune and though she had not travelled hereself, she got the infection from them.

Swine Flu and VirusSwine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of

pigs caused by type A influenza virus that regularly causes outbreaks of influenza in pigs. Swine flu viruses cause high levels of illness and low death rates in pigs. Swine influenza viruses may circulate among swine throughout the year, but most outbreaks occur during the late fall and winter months similar to outbreaks in humans. The classical swine flu virus (an influenza type A H1N1 virus) was first isolated from a pig in 1930.

Page 11: Swine Flu & Aids

THE VIRUS

The 2009 swine flu outbreak in humans is due to an apparently virulent new strain of influenza A virus subtype H1N1, produced by reassortment from one strain of human influenza virus, one strain of avian influenza virus and two separate strains of swine influenza.

This virus was originally referred to as swine flu but the WHO decided to rename it as Influenza A H1N1 virus on 30th April 2009 in order to avoid confusion over the danger posed by pigs, especially pork consumption, by which the disease is not known to occur. This was also to avoid unnecessary slaughter of pigs.

Page 12: Swine Flu & Aids

Cause by Reassortment of different strains

Like all influenza viruses, swine flu viruses change constantly. Pigs can be infected by avian influenza and human influenza viruses as well as swine influenza viruses. When influenza viruses from different species infect pigs, the viruses can reassort (i.e. swap genes) and new viruses that are a mix of swine, human and/or avian influenza viruses can emerge

Page 13: Swine Flu & Aids

Swine Flu differs from Human FluThe H1N1 swine flu

viruses are antigenically very different from human H1N1 viruses and, therefore, vaccines for human seasonal flu would not provide protection from H1N1 swine flu viruses

Page 14: Swine Flu & Aids

Page 16: Swine Flu & Aids

Present Swine Flu strainsAt this time, there are

four main influenza type A virus subtypes that have been isolated in pigs: H1N1, H1N2, H3N2, and H3N1. However, most of the recently isolated influenza viruses from pigs have been H1N1 viruses.

Page 17: Swine Flu & Aids

Out breaks among PigsOutbreaks among pigs

normally occur in colder weather months (late fall and winter) and sometimes with the introduction of new pigs into susceptible herds. Studies have shown that the swine flu H1N1 is common throughout pig populations worldwide, with 25 percent of animals showing antibody evidence of infection.

Pigs can harbour influenza viruses can be adapted to Humans

Page 19: Swine Flu & Aids

How man is exposedMost commonly, these

cases occur in persons with direct exposure to pigs (e.g. children near pigs at a fair or workers in the swine industry). In addition, there have been documented cases of one person spreading swine flu to others.

Page 20: Swine Flu & Aids

20

Human to Human Tranmission –

Limited to close contacts and closed groups of people.

If a swine virus established efficient human to human transmission, it can cause an influenza pandemic. The impact of a pandemic caused by such a virus is difficult to predict:

It depends on-

virulence of the virus,

existing immunity among people,

cross protection by antibodies acquired from seasonal influenza infection

host factor

Swine influenza viruses can give rise to a hybrid virus by mixing with a human influenza virus and can cause pandemic.

Page 21: Swine Flu & Aids

How Swine Flu presents in HumansThe symptoms of swine flu

in people are expected to be similar to the symptoms of regular human seasonal influenza and include fever, lethargy, lack of appetite and coughing. Some people with swine flu also have reported runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea

Page 24: Swine Flu & Aids

Any influenza carries potential risks for persons with HIV infection. It is known that adults and adolescents with HIV infection, especially persons with low CD4 cell counts, are at higher risk for viral and bacterial lower respiratory tract infections and for recurrent pneumonias. Because adults and adolescents infected with HIV experience more severe complications of seasonal influenza, it is reasonable to assume that they are also at higher risk for swine influenza complications.

24

Page 25: Swine Flu & Aids

Several studies have reported higher hospitalization rates, prolonged illness and increased mortality, especially among persons with AIDS. Thus, immune compromised persons, including HIV-infected adults and adolescents and especially persons with low CD4 cell counts or AIDS can experience more severe complications of seasonal influenza and it is possible that HIV-infected adults and adolescents are also at higher risk for swine-origin influenza complications.

Page 26: Swine Flu & Aids

Clinical PresentationHIV-infected adults and adolescents with swine-origin influenza would be expected to present with typical acute respiratory illness (e.g., cough, sore throat, rhinorrhea) and fever or feverishness, headache, and muscle aches. For some HIV-infected persons, especially persons with low CD4 cell counts, illness might progress rapidly, and might be complicated by secondary bacterial infections including pneumonia. HIV-infected persons who have suspected swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus infection should be tested.

Page 27: Swine Flu & Aids

Adults and adolescents with HIV infection, especially persons with low CD4 cell counts, are known to be at higher risk for viral and bacterial lower respiratory tract infections and for recurrent pneumonias.Evidence that influenza can be more severe for HIV-infected adults and adolescents comes from studies among HIV-infected persons who had seasonal influenza; these data are limited.

27

Page 28: Swine Flu & Aids

Persons with HIV infection should remain vigilant for the signs and symptoms of influenza . Persons with HIV infection who are concerned that they might be experiencing signs or symptoms of influenza infection, or who are concerned they might have been exposed to a confirmed, probable or suspected case of influenza infection, either seasonal influenza or swine-origin influenza A (H1N1), should consult their healthcare provider to assess the need for evaluation and for possible anti-influenza treatment prophylaxis.

28

Page 29: Swine Flu & Aids

How long can an infected person spread swine flu to others? People with swine influenza virus infection should be

considered potentially contagious as long as they are symptomatic and possible for up to 7 days following illness onset. Children, especially younger children, might potentially be contagious for longer periods.

Page 30: Swine Flu & Aids

Is the eating Pork infects ?No. Swine influenza viruses

are not transmitted by food. You can not get swine influenza from eating pork or pork products. Eating properly handled and cooked pork and pork products is safe. Cooking pork to an internal temperature of 160°F kills the swine flu virus as it does other bacteria and viruses

Page 31: Swine Flu & Aids

31

DIAGNOSIS

During the 2009 swine flu outbreak in the United States, CDC advised physicians to consider swine influenza infection in the differential diagnosis of patients with acute febrile respiratory illness who have either been in contact with persons with confirmed swine flu, or who were in one of the five U.S. states that have reported swine flue cases or in Mexico during the 7 days preceding their illness onset.

A diagnosis of confirmed swine flu requires laboratory testing of a respiratory sample (a simple nose and throat swab)

Page 32: Swine Flu & Aids

32

LABORATORY STUDIES

CBC

Leukopenia and relative lymphopenia

Thrombocytopenia may be present

Real time PCR (RTPCR)

Viral culture

Four-fold rise in swine influenza A(H1N1) virus-specific neutralizing antibodies

Page 33: Swine Flu & Aids

PREVENTION

Prevention in swine-

Facility Management

Using disinfectants

Ambient temperature to control virus in the environment. The virus is unlikely to survive outside living cells for >

2 wks except in cold (above freezing) conditions.

Page 35: Swine Flu & Aids

Clean your hands

Washing your hands often will help protect you from germs.

Hand washing proved to be best procedure in prevention of Majority of Communicable diseases.

Page 36: Swine Flu & Aids

Avoid close contact

Avoid close contact with people who are sick. When you are sick, keep your distance from others to protect them from getting sick too.

Aerosols spread the virus in any environment

Page 37: Swine Flu & Aids

Cover your mouth and nose.Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when

coughing or sneezing. It may prevent those around you from getting sick

Page 38: Swine Flu & Aids

Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouthGerms are often spread

when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches his or her eyes, nose, or mouth.

Page 39: Swine Flu & Aids

Stay home when you are sick.

If possible, stay home from work, school, and errands when you are sick. You will help prevent others from catching your illness.

Page 40: Swine Flu & Aids

Practice other good health habits

Get plenty of sleep, be physically active, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids, and eat nutritious.

Unnecessary Migration of people from epidemic and endemic areas to be reduced.

Page 41: Swine Flu & Aids

Simple measures carry get good BenefitsCover your mouth and

nose. Use a tissue when you cough or sneeze and drop it in the trash. If you don’t have a tissue, cover your mouth and nose as best you can.

Page 42: Swine Flu & Aids

Clean Hands saves youClean your hands

often. Clean your hands every time you cough or sneeze. Hand washing stops germs. Alcohol-based gels and wipes also work well.

* Household close contacts (of confirmed, probable, or suspected case) at high-risk for complications of influenza + chronic medical conditions + aged ≥ 65 years + aged ≤ 5 years + pregnant women

* School children or children in daycare at high-risk for complications of influenza (certain chronic medical conditions) who had close contact (face-to-face) with confirmed, probable, or suspected case

Page 45: Swine Flu & Aids

* Any healthcare worker at high-risk for complications of influenza (persons with certain chronic medical conditions, elderly) working in area with confirmed swine influenza A (H1N1) cases, or who is caring for patients with any acute febrile respiratory illness

Page 46: Swine Flu & Aids

•Pre-exposure – treat during exposure period and for 10 days after last known exposure to ill confirmed case of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection

•Post-exposure – treat for 10 days after last known exposure to ill confirmed case of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection

TREATMENTGUIDANCE NOTE

The majority of influenza cases may be cared for at home with the simple supportive care.

However, if they develop dangers signs then patients may need to access a health-care facility.

These danger signs may include:

weakness/not able to stand inability to drink

lethargy dehydration and

unconsciousness high fever

convulsions

very difficult/obstructed breathing or shortness of breath

Page 49: Swine Flu & Aids

49

In the case of mild illness, patients should be provided with supportive care at home by a designated caregiver.

Supportive care entails-

Bed rest

Fluids

Medication for fever

Antibiotics if prescribed

Good nutrition

Page 50: Swine Flu & Aids

50

Inpatient treatment should include:

Treatment of dehydration with IV or oral rehydration fluids;

Supplemental oxygen therapy by face mask rather than nasal prongs;

Antibiotics (oral or parenteral) for secondary bacterial infections;

Non-aspirin antipyretics for pain and fever

Nutritional supplementation as needed.

In HIV infected individuals, a distinction between opportunistic pneumonia and secondary pneumonia from pandemic influenza may be difficult.

Page 51: Swine Flu & Aids

Drugs which are effective in Swine FluThere are four different antiviral drugs that

are licensed for use in the US for the treatment of influenza: Amantidine, rimantadine, oseltamivir and zanamivir. While most swine influenza viruses have been susceptible to all four drugs.

Oseltamivir is generally available by prescription only.

The usual adult dosage for treatment of influenza is 75 mg twice daily for 5 days, beginning within 2 days of the appearance of symptoms and with decreased doses for children and patients with renal impairment.

Page 52: Swine Flu & Aids

Drugs proved resistant at Present

Most recent swine influenza viruses isolated from humans are resistant to Amantidine and Rimantadine

Page 53: Swine Flu & Aids

Treatment in HIV PatientsRecommendations for use of influenza antivirals for HIV-

infected adults and adolescents might change as additional data on the benefits and risks of antiviral therapy in such persons become available. No adverse effects have been reported among HIV-infected adults and adolescents who received oseltamivir or zanamivir. There are no known absolute contraindications for co-administration of oseltamivir or zanamivir with currently available antiretroviral medications.

53

Page 54: Swine Flu & Aids

54

In health-care settings, a system of triage

Patient separation

Prioritization of use of antiviral medicines and

Personal protective equipment (PPE) which include high efficiency masks ideally (N95 mask or else triple layer surgical mask) gowns, goggle, gloves, caps and shoe covers. According to risk of exposure, and patient management should be in place to focus efforts on the most effective interventions to reduce mortality and any further morbidity. DISCHARGE POLICY

Adult patients should be discharged 7 days after symptoms have subsided, where as children should be discharged 14 days after symptoms have subsided.

Page 55: Swine Flu & Aids

55

Protection of staff:

Standard Precautions – Basic measures to minimize direct unprotected exposure to blood and body fluids.

Droplet Precautions – Medical masks when close to patients with respiratory symptoms. Patients and caregivers should be trained to wear and dispose off masks during the infectious period of the patient. The mask need not be worn all day and only when close contact (within approximately 1m) with the caregiver or others is anticipated.

Mask should be disposed off safely if wet with secretions.

Page 56: Swine Flu & Aids

56

Self-monitoring – Health staff should monitor their temperatures twice daily. Fevers should be reported.

If a staff member becomes unwell, treatment with antiviral as well as supportive care as for other patients should be provided at home by a caregiver.

Page 57: Swine Flu & Aids

VACCINATIONVACCINATIONA single-dose H1N1 swine flu vaccine may soon happen.

Contrary to what was earlier expected, the vaccine against H1N1 may not be multi-dose, as results from a pilot study of Novartis H1N1 candidate vaccine revealed a strong immune response after just one shot. The vaccine might be used in trials in India as well.

Scientists from the University of Leicester, who tested the vaccine on 100 healthy volunteers aged between 18 and 50, found that more than 80% of the volunteers showed a strong, potentially protective immune response after one dose, with more than 90% showing the same response after two doses.

GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBILTIES

59

Page 60: Swine Flu & Aids

60

The general public must be educated about the signs symptoms and spread of Swine flu. This can be done by television, radio, newspaper etc.

PUBLIC AWARENESS

Page 61: Swine Flu & Aids

61

Government of India is taking steps to control this pandemic.

There are plans to stockpile 15 billion oseltamivir pills.

Steps are also being taken to prevent the spread of the disease.

Page 62: Swine Flu & Aids

62

Government should ensure proper screening of passengers at all international airports, isolating the positive cases and wearing personal protective equipments are the mainstay of prevention.
