Novel H1N1 Influenza
• First cases of human infection with novel H1N1 influenza virus were detected in April 2009 in California and Texas
• Virus has spread rapidly and is now widespread internationally
![Page 7: Stephen Sears, MD, MPH, CPE](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568137c6550346895d9f6344/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Novel H1N1 Influenza
• Each year in US, seasonal influenza results in 36,000 deaths and >200,000 hospitalizations
• H1N1 potentially is as serious as seasonal flu, if not more so, given there currently is no vaccine against this virus
• Most people will not have immunity to H1N1, and illness may be more severe and widespread as a result

Pandemic Assumptions
• Attack rate of 25%-35%
• Duration of a year or more in >2 waves
–Each wave lasting 6-8 weeks in community
• Healthcare system will be severely taxed if not overwhelmed
![Page 15: Stephen Sears, MD, MPH, CPE](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568137c6550346895d9f6344/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Influenza DiseaseInfluenza Disease• Spread
– Aerosolized droplets from coughing or sneezing upto a 6 foot radius
– Hand to face contact (nose, eyes, or mouth) after touching infected areas
– Virus infectious only up to 2-8 hrs on surfaces
• Incubation period– 1 to 7 days (avg H1N1 3-4 days)
• Symptom duration– 3 to 7 days but up to 14 days (avg H1N1 3-5 days)
• Contagious– 1 day before symptoms to 10 days after symptoms
– peak period while febrile
![Page 16: Stephen Sears, MD, MPH, CPE](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568137c6550346895d9f6344/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

How does H1N1 Influenza spread?
• Same as seasonal flu
• Respiratory droplets
– Coughing
– Sneezing
– Touching droplets on yourself, another person, or object then touching mouth, nose, or eye
