Swine Flu Virus information

Swine flu is also known that the virus H1N1, and a number of other names such as pigs and swine flu, swine flu, etc. and the swine flu virus is a descendant of the family of flu viruses that are often endemic in pigs. The swine flu virus is common in all parts of the world, but for the transfer of the virus from pigs to humans is not very common, and not necessarily the cause of human influenza. This usually leads to the production of antibodies in the course of human blood. When such transfer does not create a human influenza, as is well known animal swine flu. These people who are exposed to pigs than others, have more chance of getting infected with the swine flu. But the pork will not carry any virus with it once it has been well cooked. zootonic symptoms of swine flu in humans are flu symptoms such as regular faced by human beings. Chills, fever, sore throat, headache, cough and pain in the joints and muscles do not need to be experienced if you are not only suffering from influenza, but also the swine flu. And thus the latter becomes more stringent for diagnose.The the major causes of swine flu have been identified and work on research for the production of carryion immunity to the disease.

During 1918, swine flu for the first time that influenza is a disease-related human, and this was understandable when the pigs and humans have grown sick together. But the definition of the first of the influenza disease in pigs did not occur until at least ten years later. Over the 60 years that followed, the swine H1N1 strains were mostly flue. Later in the latest strains of three different sub-types and five different genes and found that the cause of swine flu in pigs in North America. Other strains that have emerged and strains from humans and pigs, birds, and these together form quickly spread the virus of swine flu that, if discovered too late, for reasons of life of the victim to grow fatal.

Version of swine flu H1N1 is one of the strains that caused the 1918 flu pandemic. Descendants of this virus could spread among humans in all parts of the Horn of 20th. This situation was compounded by the regular seasonal epidemics of influenza that typically affect humans. However, it is rare that the virus may get transferred from pigs to humans directly, and only 12 such cases were found in the United States. But if that does not mean that the swine flu is less likely to affect humans, do not live in denial as it does not take much to restore its own epidemic. Despite the outbreak of swine flu in pigs are common and are rarely found in humans, or at least the studies said, it is shocking how things seem to have changed and turned the tables in the most recent epidemic of swine flu. Many of falling victim to the swine, each of which could be very responsible, and even more cautious.
