A Near-Fatal Infection with Oseltamivir-Resistant Seasonal Influenza A in a Previously Healthy Child: Case Report by Jesse Papenburg, Christos Karatzios, Yan Li, Nathalie Bastien, Makeda Semret, Dorothy Moore

“…This case highlights three important points for physicians: oseltamivir-resistant influenza A (H1N1) has recently emerged in North America; contrary to previously held beliefs, such strains are capable of causing severe disease in healthy children; and given this change in epidemiology, clinicians caring for children with severe seasonal influenza A infection should consider empiric dual therapy with oseltamivir and amantadine.…”

A Review of Methods Applied to Study Airborne Biocontaminants inside Aircraft Cabins by Sandro Tavares Conceição, Marcelo Luiz Pereira, Arlindo Tribess

“…Indoor-cross infection of expiratory contaminants is still a concern, worsened by the SARS outbreak in 2003 and recent cases of influenza strains (H1N1, avian flu, etc.). A variety of methods to study the airborne spread of expiratory contaminants have been worked out, including the use of tracer gas, particle generators, and CFD simulations. …”

Modeling the impact of twitter on influenza epidemics by Kasia A. Pawelek, Anne Oeldorf-Hirsch, Libin Rong

“…We also perform numericalsimulations, conduct sensitivity test on a few parameters related totweets, and compare modeling predictions with surveillance data ofinfluenza-like illness reported cases and the percentage of tweetsself-reporting flu during the 2009 H1N1 flu outbreak in England andWales. These results show that social media programs like Twittermay serve as a good indicator of seasonal influenza epidemics andinfluence the emergence and spread of the disease.…”

A note on the use of influenza vaccination strategies when supply is limited by Sunmi Lee, Romarie Morales, Carlos Castillo-Chavez

“…The 2009 A (H1N1) influenza pandemic was rather atypical. It began in North America at the start of the spring and in the following months, as it moved south, efforts to develop a vaccine that would mitigate the potential impact of a second wave were accelerated. …”

Pandemic mitigation: Bringing it home by Tom Reichert

“…We summarize here the envelope of mortality attributable to epidemic and pandemic influenza in the last 90 years of the last century as a lead in to a presentation of the multinational case age distribution of the novel H1N1 pandemic of 2009. We discuss the sparing of elderly subpopulations in pandemics and the subsequent abrupt resurgence of mortality in the spared age groups as drift variants emerge. …”

Convalescent plasma therapy in severe coronavirus disease-2019: A narrative review by Rasmi Ranjan Sahoo, Kasturi Hazarika, Prashant Bafna, Manesh Manoj, Anupam Wakhlu

“…It was also effective in reducing the mortality and viral load in severe acute respiratory syndrome, H5N1, H1N1, and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome. Convalescent plasma administration carries the risk of anaphylactic reactions, transfusion-related acute lung injury, and transfusion-associated circulatory overload, but these are extremely rare. …”

Restoration of Type 17 immune signaling is not sufficient for protection during influenza-associated pulmonary aspergillosis by Aijaz Ahmad, Ravineel B. Singh, Kara L. Nickolich, Matthew J. Pilewski, Caden Ngeow, Kwame Frempong-Manso, Keven M. Robinson

“…In this study, we investigate the role of IL-17 and Type 17 immune signaling components during IAPA.MethodsWild-type mice were challenged with influenza A H1N1 (flu) and then exposed to Aspergillus fumigatus ATCC42202 resting conidia on day 6 post-influenza infection, followed by the quantification of cytokines and chemokines at 48 h post-fungal infection.Results and discussionThe gene and protein expression levels revealed that IL-17 and Type 17 immune cytokines and antimicrobial peptides are downregulated during IAPA compared to mice singularly infected solely with A. fumigatus. …”
