Are there some misunderstandings or excessive panic among the masses? Are there any new measures for prevention and control this year? Are there any new measures on the vaccine?
Li Zhongjie, a researcher at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of China: There are four types of influenza viruses: A, B, C and D. There are two kinds of seasonal influenza that can spread continuously in the population: A and B. According to the monitoring results of influenza virus in winter and spring by the national influenza surveillance network, influenza A (H1N1) is the main epidemic at present, with influenza A accounting for the vast majority, more than 90%, and influenza B is very low.This year’s epidemic pathogens are very well matched with the influenza vaccine strains we recommend to vaccinate.Through the antigenicity monitoring of influenza virus, we have not found any changes in antigenicity that affect the epidemic of influenza this year, soThe vaccine has a good protective effect on this year’s flu.
Seasonal influenza is the stage of high incidence of people in winter and spring. This year’s monitoring of hospitalization, including the monitoring of severe cases, did not suggest a significant increase or abnormality. Seasonal influenza is a common disease in the population, and it is a disease that people are generally susceptible to. What needs to be paid attention to is thatChildren under 5 years old, especially children under 2 years old, elderly people over 65 years old and patients with chronic diseases such as chronic respiratory system, chronic diabetes and cardiovascular system, have a higher risk of complications, so special attention should be paid to preventing influenza.China CDC issued guidelines for influenza vaccination before the arrival of the epidemic season in 2018, which focused on strengthening protection for these groups of people and made relevant suggestions.
