Swine Flu (H1N1/09)

A loss of balance can be the result of Eustachian tube or ear inflammation, trapped fluids, or infections which can occur with upper respiratory infectious disease like the flu. It is not a common symptom, and should be evaluated by your physician to determine the exact cause and treat an infection or other reason for your problems with balance. This can be caused by many different conditions and problems and should be reported to and possibly examined by your health care professional without delay, since unbalance can cause accidents and injury and you may have a condition that needs specific immediate treatment.

They can be in certain circumstances, as long as they are given at different sites.

IVIg only gives a very temporary immunity while vaccines give lasting immunity. The reason they are not usually given together is that the IVIg would attach itself to the vaccine, thus making the vaccine worthless.

It is always best to vaccinate immediately. The costs of treating a virus or a medical condition on a horse is too costly to wait.

The swine flu is PURPLE. :]

As with most types of human influenza, the symptoms begin 1 or 2 days after your exposure and infection. The symptoms typically last 7 to 10 days in healthy adults.

The cough can last a bit longer. If the cough isn't gone in two weeks, or if it changes, consult your health care professional to be sure that you don't have a secondary infection or complications.

According to the CDC, if you have a fully functioning immune system, you are considered no longer contagious once you go a full 24 hours without a measured fever (when taking no fever reducers). If your immune system is compromised, or if you have other underlying medical conditions, then the severity and/or duration can vary.

Probably, but it may depend on why you are taking the Ciprofloxacin, in what stage of the infection you currently are (if you still have a high fever, etc.), and what, if any, underlying health or medical conditions you have.

This antibiotic is used to treat bacterial infections. There are no known drug interaction issues between antibiotics and flu vaccinations. The question might be whether your body and immune system, that is actively fighting the bacterial infection can tolerate adding another organism to the mix that will also need your immune system to respond to create antibodies for the flu immunity as well as fight the bacteria. Ask the doctor who prescribed the antibiotic if it will be okay before going for the vaccination, or talk to the clinician who will administer the vaccine beforehand so they can evaluate if you should delay the vaccination until the bacterial infection is totally gone.

Since the daily and weekly counts of cases and deaths from the swine flu, which were initially required by the CDC, WHO, and national health departments of most nations have stopped since the pandemic was declared over, there is no way to know how many now. One reason is there are still ongoing cases scattered around the world even as of fall 2012. Another reason is that it was a burden on the reporting entities to try to track and report the numbers. And a large portion of people who had swine flu had mild forms and did not go to the doctor. Their cases could not be counted. And, if no lab test were done to confirm the specific type of flu, there is no way to know for sure if each case should be included in the count or if it is another type of flu.

The treatment is the same as for other types of flu, so there is no real medical need for testing to determine what form of flu someone has in most cases. For this reason, there is no definite count possible on cases of this type of flu any more.

The latest findings published online have the count at 242 in the UK as of November 2009, with 163 of those in England alone. At that time, the number of cases were decreasing.

It's preety bad there was a report of a young hockey player who I'm not really sure but i think he's dead. if you ask me i'de be sending the vaccine to London and sent to the doctor offices.

A flu virus is an organism that causes a respiratory infectious disease in animals and man. This type of virus attacks the respiratory system and gives you the symptoms of the flu. Influenza viruses such as these are not living organisms, like bacteria and fungi, but they are inanimate particles that can attach to our cells and make the cells start reproducing the virus instead of the cell's ordinary job for the host animal. They can not reproduce without a host's living cell. A virus is a "package" of proteins and DNA or RNA that can act as an organism to "hijack" your cells/the host's cells to replicate more packages like itself.

Th symptoms of swine flu are the same as any other variant. Bodily aches and pains, especially in the back and including the joints, are common.

If you're caught in a snowstorm, try to find shelter from the wind.

it takes 3 or 4 days to not be contagious

If you are on birth control you can have spotting for that long. That happens. But either way talk to your doctor.. im only 20 but I had a heavy period every single day for over 11 months and the doctors couldn't figure it out so i had to finally get a d & c. so make sure you talk to a doctor cause that's not fun to go through.

No not normal. You have to see your doctor because it will probably not stop on it's own now. I had the same problem years ago and I had it for 3 months and I had to get shots to stop and start it for several months. Bleeding that much can lead to other more severe problems. Please believe me, it won't stop on it's own, you need to get treatment.

that happend to me i had my period for almost 3 months. i went to the doctor and the gave me a low dosage of birth control

They can be: when dead, they are passed from the body as faecal matter.

There may still be some isolated cases or outbreaks in limited locations around the world. However, the specifics and counts of cases are no longer being tracked by CDC, WHO, and most US states now that the pandemic has been declared over. Influenza cases are monitored, but specific H1N1/09 counts aren't available separately from other influenza reporting any longer.

Neuraminidase inhibitors such as oseltamivir and zanamivir are found in the vaccine, and are used to block the neuraminidase protein in the viruses from working and prevent it from reproducing.

Seasonal flu vaccine is out and being given in many states in typical locations such as pharmacies and grocery stores, etc.

For the A-H1N1/09 "Swine Flu" vaccine, it is being distributed through US government public health channels to each state. It is expected to be available to certain risk groups beginning in mid October. To know when and where you can be vaccinated, keep alert to your local news reports on the availability and to which risk group it is being provided. Those at higher risk of complications such as small children and pregnant women will be among some of the first to be offered the vaccine as it becomes available. Check with your health care provider to determine if you are at high risk (see also the related question below listing the high risk groups). You can check with your state department of health (see link to the Florida state department of health below) and perhaps get information about locations of public immunization programs, if they have been selected, and other vaccination program details. In many places the programs will be set up in schools, hospitals, clinics, and individual healthcare provider settings.

It was but I don't know of anyone that has it now.

The CDC created guidelines for health care professionals and use of masks during the swine flu pandemic. They suggested that nurses wear masks to protect patients from potential exposure to viruses when they were working with infants and the immuno-compromised patients. See the related questions and related links below.

Latent Viruses: some viruses can be latent. That means that after the virus enters a cell, its hereditary material can become part of the cell's hereditary material.

The flu. One of the side affects of flu can be death.

The most effective tools are going to be the social tools like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and YouTube that allow you to build a fan base. However, for these tools to work you will have to make sure you actively engaging your fans. There are many other tools out there, but in this new marketing age FREE and personal is the name of the game. Here is a tool that achieves this wonderfully.

I came across MiCardz.com, these are music trading cards but more importantly it's something that you give to your fans.

Fans can then set it as a ring tones or follow the instructions on the trading card to the artist web page where they can download their free gift. When the fan gets to the website they are able to link to all the artist social site.
