What’s worse than getting swine flu? Getting it twice, within two months.
Here’s an update from Recombinomics—the flu blog.
Debra Parsons, a pediatrician at Kid Care West in Cross Lanes, first came down with the virus, complete with all the telltale symptoms, in August.
Her son became ill at the same time with the same symptoms. Figuring they had the same bug, Parsons tested herself to see what it was.
The test came back positive for Influenza A, so the lab at Charleston Area Medical Center sent it to be sub-typed. Parsons was positive for H1N1.
Parsons and her son recovered, but in October they started having the same symptoms, but they became much worse.
They were both tested this time, and the results were the same — they were positive for Influenza A and then H1N1.
“It was swine flu both times,” Parsons said.
In many areas, including Ukraine, this wave is subsiding, but the holiday season will lead to new infections by viruses with regional markers, leading to a third wave in early 2010.
A Texas man died a day after his roommate, sparking fears of a pandemic.
A hospital spokesman has confirmed the second recorded H1N1 related death in Nacogdoches County. The 53-year-old oil rig worker from Enid, Oklahoma died Friday at 3:50 p.m.
The victim checked into Nacogdoches Memorial Hospital last week when he began experiencing severe symptoms. This update follows the death of his roommate, a 55-year-old oil rig worker from Mississippi, who passed away Thursday morning as a result of H1N1.
Since the vast majority of H1N1 infections are mild, the death of two roommates within 24 hours of each others raises concerns that they were infected with a lethal contagious form of the virus. Recent reports out of Ukraine has raised concerns that H1N1 with the receptor binding domain change D225G, is such a virus.
The increasing number of deaths, including the cluster described in Texas raises concerns that D225G is gaining traction.
In Ukraine, the numbers are stacking up, and it’s not in a positive way. The death toll is now more than 400 and almost 100,000 are hospitalized. The mutated D225G version of the virus is gaining traction, they say.
Here are the numbers:
1,679,237 Influenza/ARI
99,661 Hospitalized
397 Dead
