GUIDE INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTION

ON SURVIVAL IN AN H5N1 BIRD FLU

ENVIRONMENT Ł1.00 Only

Here we guide you through what to do with the threat of H5N1 on the horizon. H5-N1 is a deadly strain of avian flu virus which is currently contained in and transmitted between birds. Asia, Turkey, Rumania and Greece have confirmed positive recording of H5-N1 in dead birds and Asia have lost 60+ individuals who have died due to contracting H5-N1. These people contracted the disease by simply living in close proximity to infected birds.

As with all flu viruses H5N1 is mutating all the time and soon it will become a virus that is able to infect humans on a person to person transmission basis. Normally each year when people contract the flu it spreads quite quickly through human networks by people simply coming into contact with other people or where an infected person has been within recent time. This is usual and if you become infected you may feel unwell or very unwell for 3 to 7 days, normally it is only people who are very young, very old or who have an immunodeficiency problem that may die from the flu infection.

This is where H5-N1 is different and it's far more deadly than SARS. H5 N1 is a problem because it has the potential to become a pandemic and it is estimated that one in four (1 in 4 = 25%) will become infected and one in three (1 in 3 = 33%) of those infected will die. See WHO figures to see how deadly H5N1 really is. Currently there is no vaccination for H5-N1 and it is estimated that the best turnaround for producing a vaccine is four months from the point in time when the virus becomes able to be transmitted from person to person and a sample of it is obtained.

Anti-viral drugs do help, in some cases, to reduce the symptoms of flu but this has not been tested on a person to person strain of H5-N1 and once you are infected you need to be able to get hold of some and use it. The UK government has ordered enough to treat 1 in 4 people. However, these anti-viral drugs will not be delivered in full until halfway through 2006 and key personnel will be given priority. When H5-N1 hits the fan you can imagine what state the country will be in and god forbid that it snows as well! In 1918 the Spanish Bird Flu went worldwide in one week, think how fast H5 N1 will go worldwide with today's modern transport and postal systems, it is estimated at 1 to 2 days. Such a short time to react means that you need to plan for it, not to plan, is to plan to fail or in this case; to plan to die.

Our special forces training team have put together a 'H5-N1 Survival Guide' based on special forces training. This guide will help you plan, live during and ultimately survive a H5-N1 pandemic and tell you how to get hold of an affordable anti-viral drug before others that will help should you become infected. This guide is in the form of a standard Adobe pdf file that we will email you once we have received a payment of Ł1.00 which is just to cover the cost of putting the guide together and admin of sending it out.

In Feb 04 The so-called 'Bird Flu' outbreak in Vietnam and Thailand has all scientists scratching their heads. But this is not the first of its kind. The 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic which killed 20 million people worldwide may have also been a form of bird flu, but one that involved a genetically changed virus. Two studies may help explain what made the virus so lethal. The evidence shows that the virus may have originated as a bird-borne virus and changed its genetic makeup, and as a result it was passed on to humans. In making these changes the human immune system was caught off-guard.

Scientists have analyzed viral gene samples taken from flu victims from 1918 preserved in the Alaskan permafrost. This information has allowed them to reconstruct certain proteins of the 1918 influenza virus, such as the "hemagluttinin membrane glycoprotein," that were involved in this transformation process.

These proteins allow the flu virus to enter cells and are a specifically designed to infect one species type or another. Changes in these proteins may answer questions as to how the current bird flu, affecting birds in countries throughout Asia and now Europe and beyond, is infecting and killing humans. Avian influenza A viruses do not usually infect humans; however, several instances of human infections and outbreaks have killed people. Before a virus can infect one species and then others, the genetic makeup of the virus has to change as it replicates. Strains of viruses from different species can swap genetic material creating a new strain, one that has the potential to infect more than one species.

If a bird flu virus swaps genetic material with a human form of the virus, this process creates a virus that can now spread from human to human.

Humans can catch the bird flu virus from infected birds or surfaces contaminated with excretions from infected birds. Genetic analyses show that none of the bird flu viruses isolated from people have obtained any new genes that might make them more easily spread among humans.

According to the CDC, the virus does not appear to be efficiently transmitted from birds to humans, and it does not appear to be transmitted efficiently from one person to another. In fact, the CDC has not documented that it's been transmitted from one person to another, but they know from previous situations involving avian influenza strains that occasionally a person-to-person transmission may occur, and these viruses are prone to evolve over time, so it's very possible that transmission could become more efficient causing a pandemic.

Asia remains a big problem because hundreds of thousands of birds are infected and people are living among them, H5N1 is spreading from chicken to chicken and is not just being passed to chickens by wild birds. While this large pool of people and infected birds continues it is only a matter of time before a strain of H5N1 virus exchanges genes with a human flu virus, and all that is required for this to happen is a person being simultaneously infected with both a human and bird flu virus. Then a worldwide pandemic sparks into life, as has happened in other deadly pandemics.

Once this fuse is lit it cannot be stopped, a person will be infected two or three days before the main symptoms kick-in, during this time they are carrying H5N1 and infectious to others, and so it goes on. Within the first day an infected person on a plane could be re-breathing the same recycled air (approx. 120lts per hour) as other passengers within hours 90% of these people are likely to be infected. They will then get off the plane infect people going to other destinations and travel around a new country each one infecting hundreds of others until they are too ill to move, about 3 days after infection. This then goes on and on until there is nothing left to infect. How will anyone stop this unseen highly efficient killing machine until it has burnt itself out on its human feast. You can stop it infecting you, but, you need to plan now.

QUESTION: What is bird flu?

Like humans and other species, birds are susceptible to flu.

There are 15 types of bird, or avian, flu.

The most contagious strains, which are usually fatal in birds, are H5 and H7.

The type currently causing concern is the deadly strain H5N1.

Even within the H5N1 strain, variations are seen, and slightly different strains are being seen in the different countries affected in this outbreak.

Migratory wildfowl, notably wild ducks, are natural carriers of the viruses, but are unlikely to actually develop an infection.

Domestic birds are particularly susceptible in epidemics.

This is why the confirmation of the H5N1 strain in birds in Turkey and Romania is causing concern.

Pakistan has seen cases of the H7 and H9 strains of bird flu in poultry, but no cases of these strains have been passed to humans

QUESTION: Is it possible to stop bird flu coming into a country?

The fear, after the Turkish and Romanian findings, is that H5N1 will spread across Europe.

Because it is carried by birds, there is no way of preventing its spread.

But that does not mean it will be passed to domestic flocks. Experts say proper poultry controls - such as preventing wild birds getting in to poultry houses - which are present in the UK, should prevent that happening.

In addition, they say monitoring of the migratory patterns of wild birds should provide early alerts of the arrival of infected flocks - meaning they could be targeted on arrival.

QUESTION: How do humans catch bird flu?

Bird flu was thought only to infect birds until the first human cases were seen in Hong Kong in 1997.

Humans catch the disease through close contact with live infected birds.

Birds excrete the virus in their faeces, which dries and becomes pulverised, and is then inhaled.

Symptoms are similar to other types of flu - fever, malaise, sore throats and coughs. People can also develop conjunctivitis.

Researchers are now concerned because scientists studying a case in Vietnam found the virus can affect all parts of the body, not just the lungs.

This could mean that many illnesses, and even deaths, thought to have been caused by something else, may have been due to the bird flu virus.

QUESTION: How many people have been affected?

As of 10 October, 2005, there had been 117 confirmed cases of avian flu in humans in Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia, leading to 60 deaths.

Click here to find the latest information from the WHO on the numbers infected and killed by avian flu.

Avian flu does have a high fatality rate. In comparison, Sars has killed around 800 people worldwide and infected at least 8,400 since it first emerged in November 2002.

QUESTION: Can avian flu be passed from person to person?

There are indications that it can, although so far not in the feared mutated form which could fuel a pandemic.

A case in Thailand indicated the probable transmission of the virus from a girl who had the disease to her mother, who also died.

The girl's aunt, who was also infected, survived the virus.

UK virology expert Professor John Oxford said these cases indicated the basic virus could be passed between humans, and predicted similar small clusters of cases would be seen again.

It is not the only instance where it has been thought bird flu has been passed between humans.

In 2004, two sisters died in Vietnam after possibly contracting bird flu from their brother who had died from an unidentified respiratory illness.

In a similar case in Hong Kong in 1997, a doctor possibly caught the disease from a patient with the H5N1 virus - but it was never conclusively proved.

QUESTION: Does this mean there is likely to be a large outbreak of bird flu?

Experts are concerned that this could happen. But in the Thai case, the virus was only passed to close relatives and spread no further.

In addition, it had not combined with a form of human flu.

This is the real fear. Experts believe the virus could exchange genes with a human flu virus if a person was simultaneously infected with both.

The more this double infection happens, the higher the chance a new virus could be created and be passed from person to person, they say.

Concern has also been raised by research which showed that the virus which caused the 1918 pandemic was an avian flu virus.

QUESTION: What would be the consequence if this did happen?

Once the virus gained the ability to pass easily between humans the results could be catastrophic.

Worldwide, experts predict anything between two million and 50 million deaths.

QUESTION: Is there a vaccine?

There is not yet a definitive vaccine, but prototypes which offer protection against the H5N1 strain are being produced.

But antiviral drugssuch as Tamiflu, which are already available and being stockpiled by countries such as the UK, may help limit symptoms and reduce the chances the disease will spread.

Concerns have been prompted by news a Vietnamese patient has become partially resistant to the Tamiflu, drug experts plan to use to tackle a human bird flu outbreak.

Scientists say it may be helpful to have stocks of other drugs from the same family such as Relenza (zanamivir).

QUESTION: Can I continue to eat chicken?

Yes. Experts say avian flu is not a food-borne virus, so eating chicken is safe.

The only people thought to be at risk are those involved in the slaughter and preparation of meat that may be infected.

However the World Health Organisation recommends to be absolutely safe, all meat should be cooked to a temperature of at least 70C. Eggs should also be thoroughly cooked.

Professor Hugh Pennington of Aberdeen University underlined the negligible risk to consumers: "The virus is carried in the chicken's gut.

"A person would have to dry out the chicken meat and would have to sniff the carcass to be at any risk. But even then, it would be very hard to become infected."

QUESTION: What is being done to contain the virus in the countries affected?

Millions of birds have been culled in an attempt to stop the spread of the disease among birds, which would in turn stop it being passed on to humans.

QUESTION: What preparations are being made in the UK?

Experts say people in the UK are at "very low risk" of developing the disease at present.

But the Health Protection Agency estimates that if a flu outbreak did reach the UK around a quarter of the population could be affected, with possibly 50,000 deaths.

The government has purchased around 14.6 million courses of the antiviral drug Tamiflu - enough to treat around a quarter of the UK's population.

The drug reduces the severity of flu symptoms and can also mean the length of illness is shortened.

And ministers have also arranged for 2-3 million doses of H5N1 vaccine which could offer some protection against the virus.

GPs have been sent guidance on how to manage an outbreak. This includes the priorities for who should receive anti-flu drugs in the event of a pandemic.
