Swine influenza

Swine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza viruses that causes regular outbreaks in pigs. People do not normally get swine flu, but human infections can and do happen. Swine flu is also known as pig influenza, swine flu, hog flu and pig flu. This is a viral disease caused by several type swine flu viruses known as Swine influenza virus (SIV) or swine-origin influenza virus (S-OIV) which is a strain belongs to the influenza family and endemic to pigs. There

In 1976, due to an outbreak of influenza at Fort Dix, New Jersey, the United States set a precedent in immunology by attempting to vaccinate the entire population of the country against the possibility of a swine-type Influenza A epidemic. While a great many people were successfully immunized in a very short period of time, the National Influenza Immunization Program (NIIP) quickly became recognized as a failure, one reason being that the feared epidemic never surfaced at all. But this massive undertaking

These animals are not only a threat to the economy but they are also a threat to people, other wildlife and the native land.http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/huntwild/wild/nuisance/feral_hogs/ http://agrilife.org/texnatwildlife/feral-hogs/the-ecological-impacts-of-feral-swine/ Wild hog carry several diseases such as pseudorabies, swine brucellosis, bovine tuberculosis, FADs, African swine

into. Swine flu is presumptively diagnosed clinically by the patient's history of association with people known to have the disease and their symptoms listed above. Usually, a quick test (for example, nasopharyngeal swab sample) is done to see if the patient is infected with influenza A or B virus. Most of the tests can distinguish between A and B types. The test can be negative (no flu infection) or positive for type A and B. If the test is positive for type B, the flu is not likely to be swine flu

Wale Ayeni once said, “Be thankful for what you have. Your life, no matter how bad you think it is, it is someone else’s fairytale.” Thankfulness should be a significant part of our everyday lives. It is important to be thankful because it is a way to express our gratitude towards others.

Being thankful is a crucial part of our lives for strength during

challenge, a new lesson, and prayerfully, a new blessing. Good things come but unfortunately, so do the bad. I remember just a few years ago hearing of people near and far being infected with the swine flu, which is the transmitting of pig influenza into humans. It is also known as swine influenza, pig influenza, or hog flu. This was devastating to hear. Being of a younger generation, this was my first time hearing of something as drastic and severe as this. I began wondering what caused this and why

create stress, not only for the herd, but also to the workers and grower. For example, when porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDv) hit the United States in 2013, 10% of the U.S. swine population was eliminated according to NCBI. Millions of piglets lost their life due to this coronavirus. To better understand the hardships the swine industry endured, the first two week that the virus was present, there was a 0% chance of piglets surviving. Week 3, the survival rate increased to 25%, week 4 survival rate

many diseases and plagues, some of these were the Bubonic Plague (the Black Death) in mid 1300’s, the Avian Flu which started in 1878 and the Swine Flu which started in the 1918. People have been discovering the causes for these plagues and diseases. They found out that animals such as Rodents for the Bubonic Plague, birds for the Avian Flu and pigs for Swine flu were vectors for diseases. The Bubonic Plague was a epidemic in the mid 1300s and killed the vast majority of the population in Europe. The

E. Coli PERSONAL EXPERIENCE Myah Winter | Sanitation and Safety | November 16 2016  I had recently experienced the terror that is referred to as E. Coli. I can tell you all about how it is much worse than the flu, although I will also be talking about this one girl I stumbled upon on the internet also. She had a life threatening experience that you can definitely experience if you go untreated when finding out that you have E. Coli. She had it for 19 days straight when I had been extremely lucky
