Officials Worry About Swine Flu Preparedness Amid Budget Cuts
In light of two reports released this week, public health officials examine preparation plans for a second strain of swine flu amid troubling budget cuts. According to Reuters, "a report by the non-profit group Trust for America"s Health released on Thursday found that while the investment in pandemic planning and stockpiling of antiviral medications have paid off, recent cuts in public health departments have meant many did not have adequate res to carry out flu plans." "The group specifically urged a halt to planned layoffs at state and local health departments, and recommended hospitals improve strategies for handling a large influx of patients."

Health Officials Report 22 New H1N1 Swine Flu Cases In Mississippi

The Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH) reports 22 new cases of H1N1 swine flu for last week, bringing the state"s total number of cases to 105. The new cases last week were in Lamar (6), Rankin (4), Covington (2), Madison (2), Chickasaw (1), Forrest (1), Harrison (1), Jackson (1), Lafayette (1), Monroe (1), Warren (1) and Winston (1) counties. Since MSDH began testing for H1N1 swine flu, cases have been reported in Harrison (23), Jackson (16), Forrest (11), Lamar (10), Rankin (9), Madison (7), Hinds (6), Holmes (3), Covington (2), Greene (2), Jones (2), Lowndes (2), Yazoo (2), Lauderdale (2), Chickasaw (1), DeSoto (1), Lafayette (1), Monroe (1), Perry (1), Union (1), Warren (1) and Winston (1) counties. These numbers include last week"s newly reported cases. County numbers may have slightly changed from previous weeks after case investigation and follow-up. According to State Epidemiologist Dr. Mary Currier, H1N1 swine flu responds well to traditional anti-viral medications. The very young, the elderly, pregnant women and the chronically ill may be at higher risk for complications. Prevention is the best method of protection, and Mississippians are encouraged to take the following precautions to reduce the risk of contracting H1N1 swine flu and other flu-like illnesses: wash your hands frequently or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, cough or sneeze into your sleeve, or cough into a tissue followed by hand-washing, and avoid close contact with those who are sick. If you are ill, stay home until you are well, unless you need to see a doctor, in which case call first to prevent possible transmission in the doctor"s waiting area.
