Overall - 89 patients
78 - conjunctivitis
5 - conjunctivitis and influenza-like illness
2 - influenza-like illness
4 - did not fit the case definitions
Illnesses were generally mild, except for a
fatal case of pneumonia in combination
with ARDS

Radiological Findings
Prerequisites for the Start of a
Pandemic
• First, a novel virus must emerge to which the
general population will have no or little immunity
• Second, the new virus must be able to replicate
in humans and cause disease
• Third, the new virus must be efficiently
transmitted from one human to another. Efficient
transmission is expressed as sustained chains
of transmission causing community-wide
outbreaks

Culling
Quarantine
Disinfection
Vaccination against
circulating flu
• H5N1 vaccine
development
• Stockpiling of
antivirals
Take-home messages
• The threat to public health will remain so long as
the virus continues to cause disease in domestic
poultry
• The outbreaks in poultry are likely to take a very
long time to control
• Should the final prerequisite for a pandemic be
met, the consequences for human health around
the world could be devastating
• Regardless of how the present situation evolves,
the world needs to be better prepared to
respond to the next influenza pandemic
We have to prepare
for the next pandemic!!!
