Older persons are among those most at risk
According to xinhua news agency, beijing, 26 january, the national health and planting commission published the human infection h7n9 avian influenza treatment program (2014 edition), the majority of those currently diagnosed with h7n9 avian influenza are spreading cases and individual families are concentrated, but there is no evidence of continuous interpersonal transmission; this does not preclude limited, non-continuous human transmission。
The programme suggests that the source of infection may be poultry with h7n9 avian influenza virus. Avian influenza h7n9 can be transmitted through the respiratory tract, or by close exposure to avian-infected secretions or excreta; or via exposure to the contaminated environment. Those who have been exposed to poultry within one week of the onset of the disease or who have been to the market for live poultry, especially the elderly, are at high risk。
The programme emphasizes that early detection, early reporting, early diagnosis, early treatment, enhanced treatment of serious cases and attention to western and central health care are key to effective prevention and control, improved cure rates and reduced mortality rates。
