Influenza: Seasonal, HPAI, Pandemic
Human Public Health Implications
• High mortality of H5N1 to humans • Emergence of a new influenza virus with
pandemic potential-Efficient human to human transmission-Vast majority of people have no immunity-No protective vaccine/ Inadequate quantity of developed vaccines for the world -High number of cases and deaths worldwide (pandemic)
Transmission to humans
• Close contact with infected birds and through aerosols, discharges and surfaces
• Virus is excreted in feces, which dries, pulverized and inhaled
• Flapping of wings hasten transmission
0-1 days high fever (above 38 °C), cough and shortness ofBreath
1-7 daysearly dyspnea crackles rapid progress to respiratorydistress - respiratory failure
Incubation Period
Prodromal Stage
Lower Respiratory Stage
Recovery in 30% of cases
Mostcases have died in spite of ventilatory support after about 10 days
Exposure
Clinical Stages of AI in humans
3 days, range 2-4 days
The signs are alarmingA. Avian influenza is endemic and probably ineradicable
among poultry in Southeast Asia
B. H5N1 spread at pandemic velocity amongst migratory birds, with the potential to reach most of the earth in the next year
C. Humans and animals are mixing vessel for the virus. • 1968-69 (most recent pandemic) : China population was 790 million; today
it is 1.3 billion the number of pigs in China was 5.2 million; today it is 508 million, number of poultry 1968 was 12.3 million, today it is 13 billion.
D. Exponential multiplication of hot spots and silent reservoirs (as among infected but asymptomatic ducks)
E. Increasing human H5N1 infections, small clusters of cases
F. Rapid growth in foreign travel
Stages of Avian and Pandemic Preparedness
Stage 1: Avian influenza-free Philippines
Stage 2: Avian influenza in domestic fowl in
the Philippines
Stage 3: Avian influenza from poultry to humans in the Philippines
Stage 4 - Human-to-human transmission (pandemic influenza) in the country
• Import ban
• Border control
• Wildlife Act
• Early recognition/ reporting
• Mass culling,
• Quarantine of affected area
• Management of public panic
• Early recognition/ reporting • Proper handling of birds• Protective gear• Management of public panic
• Use of antiviral agents• Infection control• Quarantine of contacts
• Passenger entry-exit management • Border control• Quarantine of contacts• Isolation• Management of cases• Social distancing• Personal hygiene• Management of public panic
Strategic Approaches
Stage 1: Keeping the Philippines Bird Flu Free
Prevention of entry of the virus: • Ban of all poultry and poultry products
from AI-infected countries
• Border control
• Ban on sale, keeping in captivity of wild birds
• Biosecurity measures
• Standardized footbath
• Confiscation and destruction of unlicensed cargo
• Surveillance of Poultry in Critical Areas• Influenza vaccination for all poultry
workers, handlers
STAGE 2: Avian Influenza in Domestic Fowl in the Philippines
Individuals at risk
Poultry handlers/workers Sellers/ people in live chicken
sale Aviary workers/ Ornithologists Cullers People living near poultry farms Any individual in close contact
with infected birds
STAGE 2: Avian Influenza in Domestic Fowl in the Philippines
• Prevention of spread from birds-to birds: early recognition and reporting, mass culling, quarantine of affected area
• Prevention of spread from birds to humans: human protection through proper handling of infected birds, use of protective gear by residents, poultry handlers, and response teams
STAGE 2: Avian Influenza in Domestic Fowl in the Philippines
Community Response to sick or dead birds
• Protection of exposed residents – gloves/ plastic material in handling sick or dead birds, hand washing
• Personal protective equipment for cullers – caps, masks, goggles, gowns
• Identification of exposed individuals and quarantine for 7 days
• Reporting to the Barangay Health Emergency Response Team/ local health officer
STAGE 3- Avian Influenza in Humans
Community response • Patient: face mask, in a separate area or at least 1
meter distance from other people
• Protection of caregiver : face mask and goggles or eye glasses, hand washing, self-monitoring for signs and symptoms
• Immediate transfer to the Referral Hospital
• Protection of the transporting team and disinfection of vehicle
• Monitoring of contacts of the case
Referral of Avian Influenza Cases
A. Satellite Referral Hospitals – Regional Hospitals/ Medical Centers of
16 Regions
B. Sub-national Referral Centers San Lazaro HospitalLung Center of the Philippines Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical CenterDavao Medical Center
C. National Referral HospitalResearch Institute for Tropical
Medicine

STAGE 4: Human-to-human Transmission of Influenza (pandemic influenza)
WHO announcement of pandemic influenza from other countries, clusters or increased number of sick passengers:
• SARS-Influenza Alert System for Airports and Seaport• Detection of symptomatic cases in airports and seaports- thermal screening, health declaration • Quarantine of arrivals for 7 days from affected countries in communities• Isolation of cases
•Of limited use because of the contagiousness of the patient during the symptom-free stage
Coping with increased demand for health services and goods
• manpower augmentation • antipyretics, analgesics, liniments and
antibiotics
• Shortage of beds, equipment and supplies• Only serious and urgent cases will be admitted• Back-up / buddy system • Supplies of relevant drugs (e.g. antibiotics) and equipment (e.g. Ventilator)
Secondary care
Primary care
Maintaining essential services
Persons providing • Emergency and disaster response• Maintenance of peace and order• Transportation, including air traffic controllers• Utilities – water, electricity
In an explosive spread, efforts and resources will be shifted to maintenance of essential services
• Arrange ahead places of duties and schedule to cover the required duties during the pandemic • Back up
Oseltamivir For avian influenza •Procured through WHO : Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) – P1.7 M 700 bottles suspension - PhP 0.7M &10,000 capsules for 1000 cases PhP 1 M
For pandemic influenzaFor Procurement ( Funds to be sourced out)• 100,000 capsules for 10,000 treatment courses = PhP 10 million• for treatment of patients in areas with initial outbreaks of pandemic influenza, to contain the infection/prevent spread
Estimated cost requirement of Oseltamivir:2% of population (2% attack rate) – 1.7 Million cases x 10 capsules/case 17 Million capsules will be needed x P100/ capsule - PhP 1.7 Billion
• efficacy is uncertain, in short supply, • decision on who should be given priority
Possible sources of antiviral agents:1. International stockpile – yet to be established 2. Business sector to buy antiviral agents for their own employees, may organize themselves for bulk procurement
Slowing the spread of infection
Personal hygiene – cough etiquette,
handwashing Social Distancing• Quarantine of persons/ areas • Reduction of unnecessary travel• Staying at home when sick • Isolation at home (separate room)• Closure of schools• Suspension of public events• Closure or limitation of people in public places or
establishments
Challenges in an Influenza Pandemic:
Management of public panic • Pre-pandemic prepared IEC materials
• Communication links at both national and local level - telephone lines, internet

The SARS experience and the influenza pandemic
•SARS: "The relatively high case-fatality rate, the identification of super-spreaders, the newness of the disease, the speed of its global spread, and public uncertainty about the ability to control its spread may have contributed to the public's alarm. This alarm, in turn, may have led to the behavior that exacerbated the economic blows to the travel and tourism industries of the countries with the highest number of cases.“
•Economic impact of the six-month SARS epidemic:
Asia-Pacific region at about $40 billion. Canadian tourism- $419 million. Ontario health-care system -$763 million, Flights in the Asia-Pacific area decreased by 45
% from the year before, the number of flights between Hong Kong and the United States fell 69 %
How should the business sector prepare?
• Schedule of duties with back-up• Buddy system • Raw materials – alternate sources, stockpile • Infection control in the workplace- cough
manners, hand washing, provide facilities• Guidelines on reporting to work – staying at
home when sick
How can the business sector be of help to the government?
Pre-pandemic:• Support for information dissemination• Identify/ share resources – tents, diagnostics
supplies and equipment• Support for surveillance – diagnostics, reporting
network, communicationPandemic period:• Augment resources – manpower, drugs and other
supplies • Communications
