Difference between a: The main symptoms of
Keywords: guard against a sudden high fever
Ordinary influenza: rapid onset, chills, fever, headache, body temperature within a few hours to 24 hours and reached the peak l ,39-40 ℃ or more. Can be accompanied by sore throat, runny nose, tears, coughing and other respiratory symptoms. A few cases, there is loss of appetite, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, vomiting and diarrhea and other gastrointestinal symptoms.
Human avian influenza: In addition to high fever, cough, runny nose, muscle pain, etc., most with severe pneumonia, severe heart, kidney and other organ failure leading to death. The incubation period is generally one days -3 days, usually within 7 days.
Influenza A H1N1 influenza: human latent 7 days before showing symptoms. Initially, symptoms are similar to ordinary flu, but the temperature will suddenly over 39 degrees Celsius, muscle soreness feeling significantly enhanced, accompanied by dizziness, headache, diarrhea, vomiting and other symptoms, or part of the symptoms. The sudden it more difficult to prevent, and thus be even more horrible than the previous two kinds of influenza.
Difference between two: the mode of transmission
Key words: human-human transmission, human Chuan-animal
Ordinary flu: people-to-human transmission, air droplets mainly influenza patients and latent infection as the main source of infection. 1 day -7 days after onset of infectious, disease first two days -3 days is most contagious.
Human avian influenza: Avian influenza virus has so far only by birds to humans, who can not be transmitted to humans. Onset of winter and spring, mainly in rural areas than urban.
Influenza A H1N1 Influenza: The virus is very active, can be transmitted to human pig, or pigs to humans can also be spread among the crowd. Interpersonal communication was in an infected person’s coughing and sneezing as the main mode of transmission. Some experts have warned that the need to prevent the highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 type of patients infected with swine influenza virus, because both the virus if there is a human body, you may exchange genes with each other, forming a possible free from human to human transmission pathogenic high mortality of super-high-influenza viruses.
Distinguish three: infected people
Key words: susceptible age
Ordinary flu: The most susceptible to the four categories of people — the elderly, suffering from liver, kidney, heart and other chronic disease populations, frequent contact with medical staff influenza populations, as well as children.
Human avian influenza: In cases of infection have been found in children under 13 years of age a high proportion of serious condition, are susceptible populations.
Influenza A H1N1 Influenza: mostly young adults. It has been found in fatal cases of swine flu, the vast majority of patients under 25 years of age to 45 years old.
Difference between 4: Mortality
Key words: Avian influenza mortality rates
Ordinary flu: can be lethal, but the mortality rate lower than 1%.
Human avian influenza: a high mortality rate of people suffering from bird flu, but the crowd only a small number of people susceptible to the avian influenza virus.
Influenza A H1N1 Influenza: mortality rate was 6.77%, higher than the average flu, its high mortality rate are two main reasons: First, the virus ferocious; two is that the people initially thought it was easy to mistake the common cold, casually eating drugs, missed the early onset of the optimal treatment period of 72 hours.
Difference V: prevention and treatment approaches
Keywords: Vaccine
General Influenza: vaccination against influenza vaccine can be inoculated with more time to spend a year in October -11 in mid-year vaccination 1. Like other influenza prevention, but do not deliberately to avoid contact with chickens, ducks, pigs and so on.
Human avian influenza: a vaccine. China is the second after the United States has human bird flu vaccine, technology and production capacity countries.
Influenza A H1N1 influenza: existing vaccines were ineffective. Preventive measures, wash their hands, wearing masks, and less in public places to stay indoors to be ventilated to avoid contact with influenza patients, as little as possible contact with animals, especially pigs.
