”Of particular importance is that the school wants to build up between parents and health information linkage mechanism, timely collection area Influenza H1N1 avian flu information, timely and accurate early warning.” Yang Zhicong said.
Checks across the province
A flow of children who show symptoms of
Parents choose to hide
”Kindergarten and primary school want to do a good job of prevention and control work must be co-parents.” Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control Epidemic SUN Li-mei, deputy director of the Institute chief physician said that the provincial disease control in Guangzhou recently the students of primary and nurseries in parents the knowledge and the prevention of Influenza A H1N1 influenza to conduct an investigation. The results showed that awareness of parents, prevention and control has yet to be raised and a small number of parents suspected symptoms occur even after the child still choose to hide illness, so that kids in school.
Provincial disease control staff in the Haizhu District selected kindergartens, primary schools of all three investigated 577 parents. The results showed that:
More than Jiucheng parents that “children suspected symptoms occur, they will leave the school and inform the illness.” Choose to “continue to go to school sick,” “leave, but do not tell the specific circumstances of the school,” parents accounted for 3.12% and 2.25%.
20% and 11% of the parents mistake that a stream mode of transmission is “to eat unclean food” and “blood.”
Teach their children to wash their hands of disease prevention, according to the readme parents, more than Liucheng children’s use of hand-washing liquid or soap to wash, but the process was not standardized, there are nearly 5% of the child is just wash your hands with water.
Reminder:
Once a flu-like symptoms
Focus on three types of history of this
SUN Li-mei pointed out that the more young children, in the anti-A flow in more parental guidance. For the prevention and control of post-school requirements, she reminded, for fever, cough and other flu-like symptoms in children, parents, apart from hospital in time, we must also take the initiative to remind the child what past medical history of chronic diseases, especially those with heart disease, asthma and other respiratory tract disease and encephalopathy history, and they should focus on this.
In view of autumn and winter peak incidence of influenza season, school, schools should be strengthened examine morning newly, moderate increase in physical activity, the classroom should be well ventilated. “Teachers should encourage students to go outside during recess activities, do not hold back in the classroom, especially the students.” Expert advise, fever, flu patients should wear masks when going out as far as possible reduced to the activities of crowded places, with others to maintain a certain social distance.
Vaccination:
The elderly, the primary focus should be vaccinated
”The WHO predicted that 20 million people worldwide infected with a flow, based on the new human hair is no immunity to the virus easily lead to rapid spread of disease intervention and national efforts to measure the difference.” CDC epidemic in Guangdong Province He Jianfeng, director of the Institute physicians believe that high population density in our country, this emerging community respiratory tract infections occur epidemic is inevitable.
He pointed out that the crowd immune barrier, primarily through access to vaccination and natural infection. A stream of people infected is not wholly obtained or immunity, the virus mutation is still possible to re-infection, the symptoms will not be so serious.
A stream of public concern for the vaccine issue, Jianfeng said it a dozen pharmaceutical companies across the country in the development of vaccines, but have not yet heard the vaccine market news, and because production is limited, the vaccine will follow after the listing of the order of priority to the focus groups, ” For example, health workers and public service practitioners. ”
He said that people with underlying diseases, chronic diseases of the elderly is apt to cause a flow of cases of severe or even death, the focus should be vaccinated population. In addition, since schools are clustered epidemics of sexually transmitted an important place, students can lead to family communication, especially primary school students should also become the focus groups vaccinated. “From the slow propagation velocity of departure, students should give priority to vaccination. But now the vaccine is limited, to avoid the appearance of deaths is even more important to the elderly at greater risk in this regard.”
Tips:
1-2 weeks after vaccination antibody was sufficient
A current vaccination should not be a hit on the soul. “After vaccination, antibody titers showed ladder-type growth of about one to two weeks in order to produce high concentrations of antibodies play a protective effect.” Jianfeng said.
Has entered the current seasonal influenza epidemic period, the public can first seasonal influenza vaccine inoculation. “People can simultaneously infected with two different influenza virus vaccine for seasonal influenza vaccine at least a case of health care resources are strained, thereby reducing the pressure prevention and control of a stream.” However, he admitted, previously rare in the same time, two kinds of influenza vaccine inoculation situation, playing a seasonal influenza vaccine resort to a flow of vaccine, two kinds of vaccines in the body and how to coordinate? will enhance the immune effect? “is unclear.”
Experts said that at the same time hope for vaccine, but also to promote healthy lifestyles, strengthen training and improve the body immunity.
