WHO stands for World Health Organization. The WHO is responsible for tracking the progression of the Swine Flu, and other diseases that have the potential for being transmitted across the entire world.
Swine Flu is recognized by the symbols h1n1. H stands for hemagglutinin and N stands for neuraminidase. I believe the numbers have to due with the structures of these proteins that compromise this particular strain.
There isn't an H- Official in the NFL. College Officials have letters. H stands for Head-Linesman.
C stands for where fuild level should be when COLD, H stands for where fuild level should be when HOT.
It is a flu (influenza) virus. All flus are caused by viruses. A virus is categorized by type such as Influenza Virus Type A, Type B or Type C. Viruses are always changing and mutating, and flu viruses are especially quick in their ability to mutate. When a mutation occurs, they are categorized further as subtypes and then to a finder degree as strains. H1N1 is a subtype of Influenzavirus A. The pandemic swine flu is further identified as A-H1N1/09 indicating the specific mutation of A-H1N1 into the type that caused the pandemic of 2009. Beyond that, the individual strains are broken down and named usually according to the year they were isolated and the location where they were first found. See the related question below for more information on how viruses are named.
On the periodic table of elements, the symbol "H" stands for Hydrogen.
The H and N stand for the two proteins on the capsid (coat) of the virion that causes this influenza. The H stands for Hemagglutinin, and the N stands for Nueraminidase. The numbers in the names of flu viruses refer to the configuration of these proteins. See the related questions below for more details.
H stands for Hydrogen.N stands for Nitrogen.
The scientific names for the virus strains that cause the flu are derived from the proteins on the virus capsid (coat), and usually some indication of the location from which the virus strain was first obtained or a type of known virus to which the new strain is similar, e.g., "Perth-like".In the naming convention of viruses, the protein classifications become part of the name as in H1N1; H for the haemagglutinin and N for the neuraminidase. There are different subtypes of viruses using the H and N nomenclature, for example the H5N1 subtype is the Avian (Bird) Flu and H1N1 subtype is the Swine flu.The common names usually are based upon where the virus was first discovered, e.g., The Hong Kong Flu, Fujian Flu, etc. or in what animal the virus is endemic, e.g., Swine Flu, Bird Flu, Horse Flu, etc.See the related question for more information on the naming of flu viruses.
The H stands for hydrogen and the O stands for oxygen
H stands for Hurtzsprung and the R stands for Russell
In the chemistry formula, H2O, the "H" stands for hydrogen. The "O" stands for oxygen.
