Influenza Pandemic 3 pre-requisites for the
start of an Influenza Pandemic
A novel influenza virus subtype emerges and humans in general have no immunity against it
The new virus must be able to replicate in humans and cause serious illness
The new virus must be efficiently transmitted from one human to another

‘ Influenza pandemic’ Vs ‘Seasonal Influenza’When compared to localised
“seasonal” influenza epidemic, the influenza pandemic:
Spreads quicker and broader Usually associates with
higher severity of illness and a higher death toll
Has more serious consequences, greater social and economic impact

The relationship with Avian Influenza The Hong Kong 1997
experience and the recent situation in Vietnam have demonstrated the pandemic potential of H5N1
The threat of H5N1 to human health is closely related to the outbreaks of HPAI (Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza) in poultry
The surveillance of potential virus responsible for pandemic influenza is an important part of contingency preparedness

How to Prevent Avoid touching live birds and poultry and their
droppings After contact with live birds and poultry, wash
hands thoroughly with liquid soap and water immediately
Poultry and eggs should be thoroughly cooked before eating
Travellers returning from areas with reported avian flu outbreaks should consult doctors promptly if they have symptoms of influenza after the trip. Let the doctors know the travel history and wear a mask to prevent spread of the disease

How to Prevent Ensure good ventilation
Avoid visiting crowded places with poor ventilation
Prevent the trap of drainage pipe from drying and disinfect drain outlets. Pour half a litre of water into each drain outlet and add 1 teaspoon of 1:99 diluted household bleach solution into the outlet once a week
Keep your home clean, wipe furniture and toilet with 1:99 diluted household bleach solution once a week

Step 1 : Be Prepared Follow a healthy lifestyle
Consult a doctor for influenza vaccination
![Page 22: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Step 1 : Be PreparedBuild up good personal hygiene
• wash hands frequently• wear mask when symptoms of respiratory tract infection develop• cover mouth and nose with tissue when coughing or sneezing and dispose of soiled tissue properly in a lidded rubbish bin• avoid touching eyes, mouth or nose
![Page 23: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Step 1 : Be Prepared
Keep at home • Masks• Antipyretics for use when necessary• Thermometer• Liquid soap• Tissue
Be always ready with information of family doctor & other useful information
![Page 24: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Seasonal peaks : Jan - Mar / Jul – Aug
Influenza vaccination one of the effective
means of preventing influenza complications
Influenza vaccination is recommended to special groups
Step 2 : Get Vaccinated
![Page 25: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
People who should receive influenza vaccination:
• Elderly persons living in residential care homes• Long-stay residents of institutions for the disabled • Elderly persons aged 65 years or above• Persons with chronic illnesses• Health care workers• Poultry workers• Children aged 6 to 23 months• Pregnant women in their second or third trimester
Influenza vaccine can be given on the same day as other types of vaccines
Step 2 : Get Vaccinated
![Page 26: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Step 2 : Get Vaccinated People not suitable to receive influenza vaccination:
• Allergic to eggs, neomycin, etc• Allergic to previous dose of influenza vaccine• With bleeding disorders or on warfarin deep subcutaneous injection • Suffer from acute febrile illness receive when recover
![Page 27: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Step 2 : Get Vaccinated
Two weeks after vaccination
antibodies develop and provide protection
Immunity declines over time
![Page 28: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Step 2 : Get Vaccinated Yearly influenza vaccine is targeted on seasonal influenza only
Development of a new vaccine which matches the pandemic viral strain will probably take several months to complete
![Page 29: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Step 3 : Keep Hands Clean
When Should We Wash Our Hands?
Before touching eyes, mouth & nose When hands are contaminated by respiratory secretion e.g. after coughing / sneezing After touching public installations or equipment e.g. escalator handrails, elevator control panels, door knobs Before handling food or eating After going to toilet
![Page 30: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Step 3 : Keep Hands CleanSteps to Good Hand
Washing : Wet hands under
running water Apply liquid soap and
rub hands together to make a soapy lather
Massage all the fingers properly for at least 20 seconds
• Rinse hands thoroughly under running water

Step 6 : Manage Fever WellFEVER - Symptom of underlying illness (we should be concerned about the specific illness that causes fever)
Normal body temperature 37℃ / 98.6℉ can vary 1℃- 1.5℃ normally
Readings taken as reference under different methods of measurement: Rectal temperature (38℃) Oral or tympanic temperature (37.5 ℃) Axillary temperature (37.0 ℃, less reliable)
![Page 38: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Step 6 : Manage Fever WellSelf-care tips of fever: Dressing in lightweight clothing and using light blanket facilitates escape of body heat Maintaining good ventilation of indoor areas facilitates escape of body heat Drink an adequate amount of water Consume nutritious and easily digestible food Have adequate rest
![Page 39: 如何防備流感 HOW TO PREVENT INFLUENZA](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050712/568155f6550346895dc3bb9b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Self-care tips of fever: Check body temperature regularly Take antipyretics Symptoms persistent, severe or getting worse consult a doctor
Note:General households should maintain about one week’s supply of antipyretics for use when necessary
Step 6 : Manage Fever Well
