30 April 2009 -- The situation continues to evolve rapidly. As of 17:00 GMT, 30 April 2009, 11 countries have officially reported 257 cases of influenza A (H1N1) infection. The United States Government has reported 109 laboratory confirmed human cases, including one death. Mexico has reported 97 confirmed human cases of infection, including seven deaths. The following countries have reported laboratory confirmed cases with no deaths - Austria (1), Canada (19), Germany (3), Israel (2), Netherlands (1), New Zealand (3), Spain (13), Switzerland (1) and the United Kingdom (8). Further information on the situation will be available on the WHO website on a regular basis. WHO advises no restriction of regular travel or closure of borders. It is considered prudent for people who are ill to delay international travel and for people developing symptoms following international travel to seek medical attention, in line with guidance from national authorities. There is also no risk of infection from this virus from consumption of well-cooked pork and pork products. Individuals are advised to wash hands thoroughly with soap and water on a regular basis and should seek medical attention if they develop any symptoms of influenza-like illness.

Thursday April 30 2009 The Department of Health has confirmed the first case of swine flu in Ireland. Officials confirmed that one person has tested positive for the virus in a briefing at Government Buildings in Dublin this afternoon. The person affected is a man from the east of the country who recently arrived home from Mexico. In the UK, the number of confirmed cases of swine flu has risen to eight, with the latest cases confirmed in Newcastle and London. All eight people infected with the virus have some association with travel to Mexico.
Setelah lama kita tidak mendengar kasus flu burung, kita dikejutkan dengan munculnya flu babi di Meksiko. Sejak Maret lalu dilaporkan sudah 176 orang meninggal dunia dari 2498 orang suspek dan 99 orang Laboratory confirmed. Direktur Jenderal Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) Margaret Chan telah memperingatkan potensi pandemi itu. Mobilitas orang dan produk pertanian secara internasional sangat mungkin menyebabkan perpindahan virus yang menjadi penyebab flu itu. Berikut Negara-negara yang telah Positif terjangkit Swine Influenza (Laboratory confirmed) Mexico

Thursday, 30 April 2009 13:47 WIB WASPADA ONLINE JAKARTA - Pemerintah memperingatkan seluruh warga Indonesia untuk tidak mengunjungi Meksiko, menyusul ditingkatkannya status waspada pandemi influenza dari fase empat ke fase lima oleh Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) terkait penyebaran penyakit flu babi di sejumlah negara. "Tadi pagi WHO meningkatkan kewaspadaan menjadi fase lima, artinya sudah terjadi penularan dari manusia ke manusia secara luas. Karena itu pemerintah menerapkan travel warning kepada warga yang akan ke Meksiko, tapi tidak dilarang," kata Ketua Pelaksana Harian Komite Nasional Pengendalian Flu Burung dan Kesiapsiagaan menghadapi Pandemi Influenza (Komnas FBPI) Bayu Krisnamurthi di Jakarta, siang tadi. Menurut Bayu, Komnas FBPI sudah berkoordinasi dengan Departemen Luar Negeri yang menurut rencana mengumumkan pemberlakuan peringatan perjalanan tersebut hari ini juga. Bayu menambahkan, dalam hal ini pemerintah tidak menerapkan larangan perjalanan karena berbagai pertimbangan termasuk karena belum ada rekomendasi spesifik dari WHO untuk menerapkan kebijakan tersebut. "Hingga sekarang baru Peru, Kuba, Equador, dan Argentina yang sudah menerapkan travel ban. Negara yang lain belum. Tapi bukan berarti kita tidak akan menerapkan, kita akan lihat perkembangan dulu, kalau memang diperlukan akan diterapkan," jelasnya. Selain menyampaikan peringatan perjalanan ke Meksiko, Bayu menjelaskan, pemerintah juga akan memberikan saran perjalanan (travel advisory) bagi warga yang hendak ke delapan negara yang dikonfirmasi memiliki kasus flu babi yakni Amerika Serikat, Kanada, Selandia Baru, Inggris, Israel, Spanyol, Austria dan Jerman. "Warga yang akan ke sana diberi penjelasan mengenai daerah-daerah yang sudah dikonfirmasi terdapat kasus flu babi, bagaimana risikonya serta apa yang bisa dilakukan untuk mencegah dan menghindarinya," jelas Bayu. Pemerintah, kata dia, juga melakukan komunikasi intensif dengan WHO dan 16 negara yang masih diduga menjadi daerah penyebaran influenza babi supaya bisa mengambil langkah yang diperlukan jika ada perkembangan baru. Ia menjelaskan pula bahwa pemerintah memperketat pengawasan lalu lintas orang dan barang di kawasan perbatasan serta pelabuhan darat maupun laut untuk mengantisipasi kemungkinan penyebaran penyakit tersebut. "Pelacakan kasus dan deteksi dini di kawasan perbatasan serta pelabuhan darat dan laut diintensifkan. Ini dilakukan untuk mencegah masuknya virus," katanya. Pemerintah juga sudah memiliki rencana aksi untuk mengantisipasi kemungkinan terjadinya pandemi influensa serta menyiapkan infrastruktur yang diperlukan untuk mendukung kegiatan tersebut. "Kami juga menyiapkan brosur berisi informasi tentang virus flu babi H1N1 baru ini dan langkah tepat yang bisa dilakukan," katanya. Pemerintah juga menyediakan layanan informasi dan penerimaan laporan kasus dugaan infeksi virus influenza tipe A subtipe H1N1 baru melalui pusat layanan pesan pendek di nomor 0812-80 000 358/0819-790 4919 dan layanan telepon ke posko KLB Departemen Kesehatan di nomor 021-425 7125.

Current phase of alert in the WHO global influenza preparedness plan
In the 2009 revision of the phase descriptions, WHO has retained the use of a six-phased approach for easy incorporation of new recommendations and approaches into existing national preparedness and response plans. The grouping and description of pandemic phases have been revised to make them easier to understand, more precise, and based upon observable phenomena. Phases 1–3 correlate with preparedness, including capacity development and response planning activities, while Phases 4–6 clearly signal the need for response and mitigation efforts. Furthermore, periods after the first pandemic wave are elaborated to facilitate post pandemic recovery activities.
The current WHO phase of pandemic alert is 5.
In nature, influenza viruses circulate continuously among animals, especially birds. Even though such viruses might theoretically develop into pandemic viruses, in Phase 1 no viruses circulating among animals have been reported to cause infections in humans.
In Phase 2 an animal influenza virus circulating among domesticated or wild animals is known to have caused infection in humans, and is therefore considered a potential pandemic threat.
In Phase 3, an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus has caused sporadic cases or small clusters of disease in people, but has not resulted in human-to-human transmission sufficient to sustain community-level outbreaks. Limited human-to-human transmission may occur under some circumstances, for example, when there is close contact between an infected person and an unprotected caregiver. However, limited transmission under such restricted circumstances does not indicate that the virus has gained the level of transmissibility among humans necessary to cause a pandemic.
Phase 4 is characterized by verified human-to-human transmission of an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus able to cause “community-level outbreaks.” The ability to cause sustained disease outbreaks in a community marks a significant upwards shift in the risk for a pandemic. Any country that suspects or has verified such an event should urgently consult with WHO so that the situation can be jointly assessed and a decision made by the affected country if implementation of a rapid pandemic containment operation is warranted. Phase 4 indicates a significant increase in risk of a pandemic but does not necessarily mean that a pandemic is a forgone conclusion.
Phase 5 is characterized by human-to-human spread of the virus into at least two countries in one WHO region. While most countries will not be affected at this stage, the declaration of Phase 5 is a strong signal that a pandemic is imminent and that the time to finalize the organization, communication, and implementation of the planned mitigation measures is short.
Phase 6, the pandemic phase, is characterized by community level outbreaks in at least one other country in a different WHO region in addition to the criteria defined in Phase 5. Designation of this phase will indicate that a global pandemic is under way.
During the post-peak period, pandemic disease levels in most countries with adequate surveillance will have dropped below peak observed levels. The post-peak period signifies that pandemic activity appears to be decreasing; however, it is uncertain if additional waves will occur and countries will need to be prepared for a second wave.
Previous pandemics have been characterized by waves of activity spread over months. Once the level of disease activity drops, a critical communications task will be to balance this information with the possibility of another wave. Pandemic waves can be separated by months and an immediate “at-ease” signal may be premature.
In the post-pandemic period, influenza disease activity will have returned to levels normally seen for seasonal influenza. It is expected that the pandemic virus will behave as a seasonal influenza A virus. At this stage, it is important to maintain surveillance and update pandemic preparedness and response plans accordingly. An intensive phase of recovery and evaluation may be required.

Setelah lama kita tidak mendengar kasus flu burung, kita dikejutkan dengan munculnya flu babi di Meksiko. Sejak Maret lalu dilaporkan sudah 103 orang meninggal dunia.
Direktur Jenderal Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) Margaret Chan telah memperingatkan potensi pandemi itu. Mobilitas orang dan produk pertanian secara internasional sangat mungkin menyebabkan perpindahan virus yang menjadi penyebab flu itu.
Para peneliti berjuang keras untuk mengetahui karakter virus yang menyerang itu. Secara umum, babi merupakan tempat bertemunya berbagai jenis virus, baik yang menyerang babi itu sendiri, unggas, maupun manusia.
”Meminjam istilah politik, di dalam tubuh babi memungkinkan terjadinya koalisi sempurna di antara virus flu. Di dalam tubuh babi, koalisi di antara berbagai jenis virus terjadi. Hasilnya akan memunculkan virus baru yang mengandung material para pendukungnya dengan sifat yang baru pula,” kata peneliti dari Pusat Penyakit Tropis dan juga dosen Universitas Airlangga, CA Nidom.
Tubuh babi merupakan wahana pencampur (mixing vessel) alias tempat koalisi berbagai jenis virus itu. Di dalam tubuh babi virus flu dengan berbagai tipe dan subtipe itu bisa bercampur dan menghasilkan ”anak” virus dengan karakter yang baru.
Nidom menjelaskan, hingga saat ini memang hanya di tubuh babi proses pencampuran material genetik virus flu burung mudah terjadi. Hewan ini memiliki perangkat biologis yang memungkinkan pencampuran material genetik virus itu. Ia sendiri meneliti kemungkinan proses itu terjadi pada hewan mamalia lain, seperti kucing dan anjing. Namun, sampai sekarang ia belum menemukan proses itu terjadi di kedua hewan itu.

Selain memantau suhu badan, petugas kesehatan pelabuhan juga mengaktifkan alat body clean desinfectan health quarantine, untuk mensuci-hamakan atau mensterilkan penumpang yang terdeksi alat thermal scanner.
Kepala Bidang Pengendalian Karantina dan Surveilans Epidemiologi Kantor Kesehatan Pelabuhan Kelas I Medan Masrip Sarumpaet menyatakan agar tidak mengganggu arus lalu lintas orang dan barang di Bandara Polonia, hanya penumpang yang terdeteksi memiliki tanda-tanda atau gejala penyakit flu akan diminta melewati alat body clean desinfectan health quarantine, untuk disucihamakan atau disterilkan, termasuk barang bawaannya.
Selanjutnya penumpang yang dicurigai tersebut, diwawancarai seputar kontak terakhir dengan hewan yang terkontaminasi flu babi atau penderitanya. Jika penumpang positif menderita flu babi, akan dievakuasi langsung ke Rumah Sakit Umum Pusat (RSUP) Adam Malik Medan untuk mendapat pengobatan.
"Dengan alat ini diharapkan kuman yang ada di tubuh dan barang bawaan akan tereleminasi," kata Masrip Sarumpaet kepada wartawan di Polonia,
Sejauh ini belum ada penumpang yang melalui Bandara Polonia Medan yang terdeteksi mengidap virus tersebut. (rul/nwk)

26 Apr 2009
Dengan adanya kasus flu babi (swine flu) pada manusia di Meksiko dan Amerika Serikat, Departemen Kesehatan menetapkan enam langkah untuk kesiapsiagaan yaitu:
(1) mengumpulkan data dan kajian ilmiah tentang penyakit ini dari berbagai sumber,
(2) berkoordinasi dengan WHO untuk memantau perkembangan,
(3) membuat surat edaran kewaspadaan dini,
(4) melakukan rapat koordinasi dengan para kepala Kantor Kesehatan Pelabuhan (KKP) di seluruh Indonesia untuk meningkatkan kewaspadaan,
(5) berkoordinasi dengan Badan Litbangkes untuk kemungkinan pemeriksaan spesimen, dan
(6) berkoordinasi dengan Departemen Pertanian dan Departemen Luar Negeri untuk merumuskan langkah-langkah tindakan penanggulangan.
Hal itu disampaikan Dirjen Pengendalian Penyakit dan Penyehatan Lingkungan (P2PL) Depkes, Prof. Dr. Tjandra Yoga Aditama, Sp.P., MARS., kepada para wartawan di Makassar tanggal 25 April 2009 saat berlangsungnya kegiatan simulasi penanggulangan episenter pandemi influenza.
Menurut Prof. Tjandra, penyakit flu babi adalah penyakit influenza yang disebabkan oleh virus influenza A subtipe H1N1 yang dapat ditularkan melalui binatang, terutama babi, dan ada kemungkinan penularan antar manusia. Secara umum penyakit ini mirip dengan influenza (Influenza Like Illness-ILI) dengan gejala klinis: demam, batuk pilek, lesu, letih, nyeri tenggorokan, napas cepat atau sesak napas, mungkin disertai mual, muntah dan diare.
Virus H1N1 sebenarnya biasa ditemukan pada manusia dan hewan terutama babi tetapi keduanya memiliki karakteristik yang berbeda. Begitu juga dengan virus flu burung H5N1 meskipun sama-sama virus influenza tipe A.
Cara penularan flu babi melalui udara dan dapat juga melalui kontak langsung dengan penderita. Masa inkubasinya 3 sampai 5 hari. Masyarakat dihimbau untuk mewaspadai seperti halnya terhadap flu burung dengan menjaga perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat, menutup hidung dan mulut apabila bersin, mencuci tangan pakai sabun setelah beraktivitas, dan segera memeriksakan kesehatan apabila mengalami gejala flu, ujar Prof. Tjandra.
Prof. Tjandra menyebutkan bahwa sampai saat ini sebaran kasus 8 kasus positif (konfirm) di Amerika Serikat. Sedangkan di Meksiko sebanyak 878 suspek kasus dan 60 diantaranya meninggal dunia. Dari yang meninggal sebanyak 20 kasus dinyatakan positif flu babi.
WHO masih terus mengadakan pertemuan yang membahas masalah flu babi terkait dugaan penularan antar manusia dan sampai saat ini masih ditunggu perkembangannya. Sejauh ini WHO memperkirakan hal ini sebagai public health emergency of international concern atau masalah kesehatan yang memerlukan kewaspadaan internasional dan belum ada travel warning.
Prof. Tjandra, di sela-sela kegiatan Simulasi Penanggulangan Simulasi Pandemi Influenza, telah mengadakan rapat dengan Kepala Kantor Kesehatan Pelabuhan seluruh Indonesia untuk meningkatkan kewaspadaan dengan mengaktifkan dan memastikan thermal scanner bekerja dengan baik dan mengaktifkan sistem yang ada untuk memantau orang yang masuk melalui bandar udara maupun pelabuhan laut, serta melakukan koordinasi intensif dengan Rumah Sakit rujukan di tempat masing-masing.
Disamping itu, Departemen Kesehatan juga telah berkoordinasi dengan Dirjen Peternakan Departemen
