H10N8 avian influenza virus, which was first discovered in Jiangxi, is an influenza A that can be divided into HxNx (H for hemagglutinin protein, N for neuraminidase protein) with a total of more than 140 subtypes. The case discovered this time is one of the influenza A. Experts believe that it is a case, and the risk of human infection and transmission is low.

Analysis of H10N8 avian influenza virus influenza

Experts believe it is an isolated case with low risk of transmission

According to the doctor of the Provincial Health Department, influenza viruses can be divided into three types: A (influenza A), B (influenza B), and C (influenza C). Among them, influenza A can be divided into more than 140 subtypes according to the characteristics of the virus, HxNx (H for hemagglutinin protein, N for neuraminidase protein). The case discovered this time is one of the influenza A. Experts believe that it is a case, and the risk of human infection and transmission is low.

The Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention announced today on its official microblog four preventive measures to prevent H10N8 avian influenza and other respiratory infectious diseases, including:

6. Pay attention to nutrition, ensure adequate sleep and rest, and improve physical exercise.

5. When symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, and general malaise occur, masks should be worn as soon as possible to seek medical attention. When symptoms such as sneezing and coughing occur, cover the mouth and nose with tissues or handkerchiefs to prevent infection of others.

4. Minimize unnecessary contact with domestic poultry as much as possible, and pay attention to minimize contact with deceased poultry. When eating poultry products, eggs should be boiled sufficiently.

When traveling on vacation, try to minimize contact with wild birds or entering places where wild birds live.

Avian infectious viral infection! It is an acute infectious disease caused by the avian influenza virus, which can also infect humans. The symptoms after infection are manifested as high fever, cough, runny nose, muscle pain, and most of them are accompanied by severe pneumonia. In severe cases, various internal organs such as the heart, kidneys, and others may fail, causing death with a high mortality rate. This disease can be spread in various ways such as the digestive system, respiratory system, skin damage, and eye damage, and the movement of staff and vehicles is a key factor in the spread of the disease.

The symptoms of avian influenza vary depending on the species, age, gender, high concurrency infection level, viral infection virulence, and environmental factors of the infected poultry, and are manifested as abnormal conditions in the respiratory, digestive, urinary, or central nervous systems.
