Disease relevance of Disease Outbreaks

 

High impact information on Disease Outbreaks

  • STUDY SELECTION.--Foodborne disease outbreaks reported to the Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta, Ga, on standard investigation forms [5].
  • Three caused pandemics in the last century: H1 in 1918 (and 1977), H2 in 1957 and H3 in 1968 [6].
  • Emerging influenza pandemics have been accompanied by the evolution of receptor-binding specificity from the preference of avian viruses for sialic acid receptors in alpha2,3 linkage to the preference of human viruses for alpha2,6 linkages [7].
  • Biological and genetic characteristics of the causative agents of the more recent pandemics, have been well studied but little is known about the causative agent of the Great Pandemic in 1918 [8].
  • Thus, the pathogenicity of the A/Env/HK/437/99 viruses was compared in chickens and in mice to evaluate the potential for disease outbreaks in poultry and humans [9].
