What is the latest H1N1 infection being called officially by WHO?
Swine influenza A (H1N1)
Is swine flue a biological attack?
Yes its a viral infection caused by H1N1 virus
How H1N1 becomes fatal?
it makes the lungs get overwhelmed with infection and inflammation causing death
Tami flu is enough to treat H1N1 with no antibiotic?
H1N1 or Swine flu is a virus. Antibiotics will have NO effect whatsoever on a viral infection. Tamiflu should reduce the time you have symptoms by two days.
What antibiotics are used for dogs with bite wounds?
An infection should be checked by a veterinarian
What would H1N1 be called if it came back even more advanced?
The influenza viruses are identified by and given names that correspond with the proteins on the capsid of the virus (outside coating of the virus). For example, the two proteins on the H1N1/09 virus are Hemagglutinin and Neuraminidase, therefore the virus is called H1N1.The name of any mutations of the H1N1/09 influenza virus, would follow this same naming convention and it would be called by the name that is descriptive of the particular proteins it has on the capsid after the mutation.See the related question below for more information on the naming of influenza viruses.
Is H1A1 the scientific name for Swine Flu?
No, A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)v-like virus is the scientific name. It is more commonly called A-H1N1/09. See the related question below for more detail on the many names world wide for this influenza.
Is the Swine Flu an illness?
Yes. "Swine flu" is a shortened name for the H1N1/09 influenza, which is a viral infection that causes disease in humans (and other animals). It is considered an infectious disease that causes illness in the hosts of the virus.
What are double mumps?
Double Mumps is the name given when the viral infection causes swelling on both sides of the throat.
What Carries H1N1?
There are different influenza viruses that fall into the category of H1N1. The original H1N1 was literally the swine flu, a disease of the pig. Mutations of this have resulted in slightly different viruses that are carried by (i.e., able to infect) other animals as well, e.g., H1N1/09, the pandemic novel swine flu of 2009. There are no real "carriers" of influenza (people/animals who have the virus and spread it but don't have the manifestation of infection themselves). If you become infected with influenza, you will be infected and not a "carrier". Besides pigs, the most common reservoir of Type A H1N1 viruses are birds, especially water birds. But, as we learned in the 2009 pandemic, people, cats, dogs, ferrets, poultry, pigs, birds, and several other types of animals are capable of having an infection by some of the H1N1 flu viruses.
Is aspergillosis caused by fungus?
Aspergillosis is the name given to a wide variety of diseases caused by infection by fungi of the genus Aspergillus.
What is the difference between N1H1 and H1N1?
MRSA is a bacteria (Staph A) that is resistant to the usual antibiotics and therefore hard to treat when it causes an infection. H1N1 is a virus that can cause influenza, like swine flu. Both can be severe infections that require hospitalization and intensive treatment measures.
