VIRUSES OF EPIDEMIC

or the emergency created by the epidemic of influence of the pigs in Mexico it was correct not to create alarmism’s being victims

of a bad information. The possibility that the virus arrives in other parts of the world is real as for all the types of influence

virus. In order that a strain has a wide distribution, its antigenic characteristics must ensure that it escapes the neutralization of

antibodies of the host and of the surrounding population. So, the outbreaks will happen with those strains that have dominant

antigens that fit the deficiency, or better, the absences of antibody in the population. It seems, in conclusion that the flu virus shows

an ability and an aptitude for survival built on the possibility of emergence of newmodels that allow the virus being confused easily

through populations still partly immune to previous antigenic forms. According to this view, the changes in the influenza A can be

designed in single meaning, in the context of a principle and of an evolutionary progress, from Burnet said immunological drift or

steering immunology. The antiviral drugs (inhibitors of the neuraminidases, receptor of the virus surface) should be assumed within

48 hours by the appearance of the influence symptoms and for the subjects that have had a close contact with people infected

by the flu virus. The vaccination against the influence is the most effective method to prevent the illness. From the moment that

we find the isolation of a new flu virus, we must wait for the preparation of a new specific vaccine that will be ready for the next

Influence season in autumn.
