Tainted Market Closed After Bird Flu Death in Bali

Made Arya Kencana | April 28, 2012

Denpasar. Authorities in Bali closed down the Satria Poultry Market in Denpasar on Friday after several chickens there tested positive for bird flu, days after the resort island recorded the country's seventh human death this year from the infectious disease.

Anak Agung Gede Bayu Bramasta, the head of the Denpasar livestock agency, said the market would remain closed for at least three weeks.

"It will only be allowed to reopen once it has been completely cleaned up," he said.

Bramasta said health inspectors had found at least four chickens being sold there that tested positive for the H5N1 strain of flu virus, prompting the 242 other chickens there to be culled.

Livestock officials also used disinfectant to hose down poultry stalls at Kumbasari Market to prevent the spread of the virus.

Wayan Sukanadi, the head of the livestock agency's bird flu response team, said most of the poultry being sold in markets across Denpasar had been brought into the island from East Java.

He said the suppliers were flouting a 2005 gubernatorial decree prohibiting the transport of all poultry into Bali, which was specifically issued to tackle with the global bird flu outbreak of the time.

Some traders at Satria market told the Jakarta Globe they got their birds from Jember and Probolinggo districts in East Java, but claimed ignorance of the gubernatorial decree.

Ketut Gita, a trader, said it was actually quite easy to bring chickens in from Java.

"There's usually two shipments a day," he said.

"Maybe that's because the port officials, particularly at Gilimanuk, are being bribed. But at Padangbai it's very difficult to bring in chickens."

Earlier this month, officials at the Gilimanuk quarantine office culled hundreds of chickens being smuggled in the cargo bay of a bus from East Java. Several of the chickens tested positive for bird flu. The suppliers have still not been identified.

Putu Sumantra, the head of the provincial livestock agency, said officials were tightening controls at Gilimanuk and other key ports.

"But these are smugglers we're dealing with, they're always a step ahead," he said.

"We can clamp down on Gilimanuk, but they'll just come in through small fishing ports."

The latest bird flu scare follows confirmation from health officials that an 8-year-old boy died from the disease on Tuesday.

His death is the seventh in the country this year from H5N1, and the second in Bali. One fatality has been confirmed on neighboring Lombok, with one each in Bengkulu and Tangerang and two in Jakarta.

There were only nine confirmed bird flu deaths through all of last year.

Bird-Flu Virus coalition Pigs Make it easy for the Inter-human transmission

http://www.beritasatu.com/kese...

Monday, May 28, 2012 | 21:07

Potentially occur anywhere, including Indonesia.
 
Japanese researchers, Prof. Yoshihiro Kawaoka asserted, that there is now a coalition of Bird Flu virus (H5N1) and swine flu (H1N1), which it will facilitate the potential bird flu transmission between humans.

"Coalition of the virus we studied, it could potentially happen anywhere, including Indonesia," said researchers at the Laboratory of the U.S. and Erasmus Wisconsin, Prof. Yoshihiro Kawaoka, Tropical Disease Hospital in Indonesia (RSPTI)-Unair Surabaya, Monday (28/5).
 
He explained that his party has done in the coalition that strain both the virus and the results can be tested on animals try to "represent" human beings.

"Therefore, the coalition of the two viruses that have occurred that indicate the dangers of bird flu transmission between humans would be very easy, so that Indonesia also needs to do a 'surveillance' on bird flu virus that exists today," said Kawaoka.
 
According to him, a number of countries have already made two steps to prevent that the eradiasi and vaccination. "Japan and Korea chose eradication by killing all the animals infected with either virus," he said.

Meanwhile, Thailand which was originally used to vaccinate animals to be free of both types of the virus have also begun to pick eradiasi step, because vaccination in animals makes it easier to spread bird flu virus.
 
Coalition H5N1-H1N1 in Indonesia
In response, researchers from the bird flu-Unair RSPTI Surabaya Dr drh CA Nidom MS explained that Indonesia is still using vaccination.But the way it should be reviewed with the findings of the bird flu virus coalition-pigs.

"If steps eradiasi maybe people will lose and the country also probably still going to think when asked to replace the fee, but the move was more than the later is transmitted between humans," he said.

Therefore, said Nidom who is also Head of Research Strategy at the BSL-3 laboratory-Unair RSPTI Surabaya, the institute proposed a "middle way" to restructure to keep animals (sometimes animal) from densely populated areas.

In addition, from 2005 to 2012 has occurred 188 people have contracted bird flu in 156 people or 83 percent of them die, so the cure rate is quite small (17 percent) as A in Karachi (May 2012) and E in Tulungagung (2006).

"Coalition of the bird flu virus and swine flu that can facilitate inter-human transmission also does not mean it does not exist in Indonesia, because research on the bird flu virus that we've done is refer to the virus of 2005 to 2007," he said.

In fact, he is also accompanied by Director-Unair RSPTI Dr Burhan, the bird flu virus has mutated to a new and Indonesia are also bound to suffer, because it needs to research bir
"But we can not examine post-2007 virus, because we were not given examples of the virus by the government. We do not know, maybe there is concern that we would sell the results of the study. It is not possible, we work closely with Japanese researchers have eight years and research in BSL-3 Unair, "he said.

Transmission because of the environment has reached 27 percent, while direct transmission from animals exposed to H5N1 like directly holding, cutting, or maintaining reached 29 percent.

Most cases are found in doctors' afternoon practice or private clinics.

Although bird flu has been intense socialization, a number of people who seek treatment immediately if suffer a fever around the house when there are only a few dead chickens. Of the total, only 16 cases of immediate medical treatment since the first day of illness, or about 8 percent. The average patient dies within three days.

Indonesia has a national strategic plan includes protection against high-risk group, both in animal and human, animal and human surveillance, restructuring the poultry industry. The strategic plan was prepared based on a global strategy to face the bird flu.

Although these programs noted some successes, given the vast geography and large population, the impact would be limited. There are still gaps to be overcome in the future.

Representatives from the World Health Organization, Dr Graham Tallis, said Indonesia is a hotspot for potential pandemics and emerging infectious diseases, given the state of the environment as well as geography and its democratic character. "It is therefore important concept of One World One Health is understood by all practitioners of public health, nature reserve management officials, veterinarians, policy makers and academics, to increase the capacity of this country," he said. Need an effective multidisciplinary solutions to prevent infectious disease pandemic.

EU Deputy Ambassador in Jakarta Colin Crooks expressed concerned about the conditions in Indonesia. Concerns were primarily related to the threat of epidemic, which will also spread to Europe if it really happened.

Therefore, the EU provides assistance related to bird flu control, amounting to 8 million euros of funding Global Avian Influenza and Human Facility (AHIF), who managed the World Bank added 13.5 million euros to support the national strategy for Indonesia.

Constraints

Deputy of Three Fields Coordination for Health, Family Planning and Population Welfare Coordinating Ministry, Emil Agustiono revealed, bird flu is difficult to control because of the require multisectoral cooperation. Contingency plans were never implemented or tested, so do not know where their weaknesses. "The plan must be implemented, not only in concept," he said.

One of the other difficulties is the vet is not included into the ranks of government to help deal with infectious diseases. In addition, many international aid that overlap with national policy.

Funds are available from bird flu in the state budget funds for coverage of infectious disease because the animals (zoonosis) to Rp 2 trillion over the next five years and spread over several ministries.

In Indonesia there are currently 100 hospitals in 10 referral hospitals that have a special isolation room. Among other things, Friendship Hospital, Gatot Subroto Army Hospital, Tangerang District Hospital, Kandau RS, RS Gunung Jati, RS Sulianti Saroso, Dr Soetomo RS, RS Dr. Mawardi, Moeloek Abdoel RS, and RS Ulin Banjarmasin.

Indonesia also has reserves of 5 million oseltamivir, a two-year expiration period. Oseltamivir is only partially in use, but needs to be provided for a possible pandemic. Unfortunately, for accountability at the State Audit Board, it can be dragged into court because health officials are accused of wasting public finance.

Incidence and risk factors for H5 highly pathogenic avian influenza infection in flocks of apparently clinically healthy ducks

A prospective longitudinal study was conducted on 96 smallholder duck farms in Indonesia over a period of 14 months in 2007 and 2008 to monitor bird- and flock-level incidence rates of H5 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) infection in duck flocks, and to identify risk factors associated with these flocks becoming H5 seropositive.

Flocks that scavenged around neighbouring houses within the village were at increased risk of developing H5 antibodies, as were flocks from which carcases of birds that died during the 2 months between visits were consumed by the family.

Duck flock confinement overnight on the farm and sudden deaths of birds between visits were associated with lower risk of the flock developing H5 antibodies. Scavenging around neighbouring houses and non-confinement overnight are likely to be causal risk factors for infection. With this study we have provided insights into farm-level risk factors of HPAI virus introduction into duck flocks. (Snip) http://journals.cambridge.org/...

Bird Flu In Humans Occurs in Bengkulu and NTB

http://www.bipnewsroom.info/?p...

Hat tip to Giiuseppe Michieli:

By Juliyah - Tuesday, June 12, 2012 | 18:17 

Jakarta, InfoPublik - During January to May 2012, the number of cases of avian influenza (AI) reported as many as six cases with six deaths. Additionally this year, the province of Bengkulu and NTB reported cases of AI in humans.

This was said by the Acting / Deputy Minister of Health Ali Ghufron Mukti in a press release Public Puskom Strathmore on Tuesday (12/6). But the case continues to occur despite Indonesia most people including medical professionals, believe that the Influenza in Indonesia is a mild disease that self-limiting disease. 

So far, Indonesia has not had a specific influenza immunization program. 

"Although influenza vaccination to existing ones, but still given the seasonal nature Indonesia is only for people who travel to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj," he said. 

Based on surveillance data Influenza Like Illness (ILI) in 24 health centers and the Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI) in 30 hospitals Indonesia is reported to the National Institute of Health Research and Development (2012), showed an increase of influenza cases from October 2011 until February 2012. 

Cases of Influenza H5N1 found in poultry in 33 provinces in Indonesia. Since first reported in July 2005, the cumulative number of cases reached 189 with FB 157 deaths. 

Stated, in Indonesia, mortality and morbidity due to FB [flu burung=birdflu]is relatively low compared with other infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and malaria. However, FB threats to human security is greater than any other infectious disease, because there is the possibility of mutation and initiate a pandemic influenza. 

In addition, when the influenza pandemic occurs, the impact will affect all countries in the world. It is estimated there will be deaths in large numbers, drugs, inadequate social and economic disruption. Therefore, each state must prevent that happening and it's not always anticipate. 

We remember the pandemic severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2002-2003 and Pandemic Influenza H1N1 in 2009. The second pandemic has an impact not only health but also on economic and social aspects, he said. 

Ali Ghufron stated, the Government of Indonesia has taken several steps influenza pandemic preparedness and response, including the strengthening of 100 bird flu referral hospitals, strengthening epidemiology and virology laboratories, the application of sentinel and routine surveillance, vaccine development, the implementation of the ecology and transmission, clinical spectrum, management of disease and molecular genetics, training, build coordination and distribution logistics arrangements as well. 

"Indonesia and other developing countries have also succeeded in realizing the fair, transparent, and equitable framework in the WHO system," he said. 

He explained that the framework of the fair, transparent, and equitable framework that established the World Health Assembly on the 64th WHA in 2011 in resolution WHA 64. 

"This framework guarantees the right of all developing countries to gain equal access to affordable vaccines, antiviral, and diagnostic kit for influenza pandemic, and assisted in their vaccine production capacity," concludes Ali Ghufron. (Rm)

Three mutations Again, Bird Flu transmitted between humans

http://www.tempo.co/read/news/...

 AT FRI, JUNE 22, 2012 | 11:05 PM

TEMPO.CO , Washington - A new study suggests the possibility of H5N1 bird flu virus to spread from human to human through the air. Bird flu virus is known to develop in nature.study looked at five previously identified mutations in a controversial study of bird flu, which was published in the journals Nature andScience . 

The study, led by Yoshihiro Kawaoka of the University of Wisconsin and Ron Fouchier of the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, saw a great chance of bird flu spreading from human to human. In this study, the researchers experimented with a strain of bird flu to show mutations that are necessary for to develop into infectious virus among mammals. They reveal, with only five mutations (amino acid substitution), or four mutations plusreassortment, bird flu can be transmitted between mammals - and potentially humans. 

Currently bird flu can be transmitted from birds to humans, but not from human to human. federal officials initially sought to withhold publication of the journal study, based on fears of bioterrorism.But relented after an independent panel of experts determines there is no threat to public health.

In an accompanying study, led by Professor Derek Smith and Dr. Colin Russell at Cambridge University, researchers analyzed all the available surveillance data on H5N1 bird flu virus in 15 years last.They found two of the five mutations required to make bird flu transmitted between mammals have occurred in many strains of bird flu that exist in nature. The researchers also said that, not only that, but a large number of strains of the virus has changed from the mutation. 

"The virus that has two mutations are common in birds, which means that only three additional mutations in the human to be infectious," Russell said in a statement released. The next question is, "Is three a lot, or a little?" 

The researchers used a model math of how viruses replicate and evolve in mammals to look at factors that would increase the likelihood of the three mutations that occur spontaneously in nature. According to the model, the virus can replicate billions of times, sometimes it is not perfect, causing random mutations. Positive selection may favor some of these mutations if they help the virus to adapt to mammals, and spread. 

A long period of infection may also increase the possibility of developing a virus, because the longer a person is infected, the more the virus replicates and accumulate mutations. 

According to the researchers, it is also possible that there are other mutations that are not identified by Foucheir and Kawaoka, which can act as a functional replacement for the remaining three mutations.

Department of Agriculture United States continues to conduct surveillance for traces of H5N1 in chickens. So far, there have been reports in the United States of any cases of H5N1 in humans. The Cambridge researchers recommend continued surveillance of bird flu virus, especially in regions where mutations are required for transmission to humans has occurred. They also called for additional studies and in-depth about the bird flu virus to identify other mutations that may play a role in transmission from human to human. CNN | TRIP B Other News:

Wild Birds Can Recover From Bird Flu

http://headlines.vivanews.com/...
June 27, 2012
Netherlands:  Researchers from the Erasmus Medical Center in the Netherlands, Prof.  Ron Fouchier, describes a mutation in the journal Science about the dangerous H5N1 bird flu virus.  These new findings indicate the H5N1 virus is easily transmitted to humans through the air.  According to LIPI researcher, Dr.  David M.  Prawiradilaga, in Indonesia there has been no news about the development of virus mutations.

"Depending on weather and environmental conditions, (these) conditions also affect bird health," Dewi told VIVAnews on Tuesday, June 26, 2012.

David explains the different impact of bird flu virus in wild birds and farm birds.  Wild birds are still heterogeneous, while the farms have been selected so that the birds are relatively similar.
Based on "Research on Wild Bird Avian Influenza of 2007 Up In 2010" made Goddess, wild birds are more resistant to attack from the bird flu virus.  The resistance of the breeding birds is judged inferior to wild birds.  Bird farms have gone through the selection process for commodity trading.  Wild birds can heal themselves from the attacks of bird flu.  Their endurance is forged stronger in the wild.  But, this does not mean that it is hitting all wild birds.  There is also a wild bird whose endurance cannot do self-healing.

David has not been able to provide data on paper in detail.  Research on bird flu is still on the waiting list for research that could be released to the public.

Lawmakers Knew of Bird Flu Vaccine Plant Irregularities

Markus Junianto Sihaloho | July 07, 2012

The House of Representatives reportedly had first-hand knowledge about the irregularities surrounding the construction of a bird flu vaccine plant, a House document suggests.

The document, obtained by the Jakarta Globe, contains records from a closed-door meeting between the Health Ministry and House Commission IX, which oversees health affairs, in April 2010. The document was signed by Commission IX deputy chairman Irgan Chairul Mahfiz.

The Health Ministry proposed a Rp 490 billion ($52.4 million) budget for an advance-education program to tackle the bird flu epidemic, but the budget somehow got redirected into the building of the plant, which is located at Airlangga University. The budget also soared to Rp 1.04 trillion, the dossier suggests.

"Commission IX approves the reallocation of the budget ... from the Professions and Expertise Education Program to Building a Research Facility and Production of Bird Flu Vaccines," the document states.

While the dossier did not mention which lawmaker supported the changes, it did note those who opposed it.

The document states that Mamat Rahayu Abdullah from the Golkar Party questioned how the construction program was supposed to help Indonesia's battle against the bird flu.

Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) lawmaker Rieke Dyah Pitaloka was quoted in the document as saying that Indonesia had more than enough vaccines to counter an outbreak, adding that construction was not needed.

The only proponent detailed by the dossier came from Democratic Party lawmaker Zulmiar Yanri.

A document, dated March 14, suggests that the Finance Ministry was still earmarking money for the project, ignoring a warning from the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK), which found more than Rp 600 billion in potential state losses in the deal.

Irgan confirmed that the Health Ministry's budget was redirected to the construction project but refused to say why.

Finance Minister Agus Martowardojo also refused to comment about the document.

"I want to focus on this first," he said before attending a meeting with the House Budget Committee.

Construction of the factory was done by Anugrah Nusantara, of which former Democratic Party treasurer Muhammad Nazaruddin was part-owner.

He is now in jail for rigging the tender for a different government construction project.

Nazaruddin is also being investigated for irregularities in the bidding process of three other construction projects.

Health Minister Nafsiah Mboy admitted last month that the graft convict's company violated its contract.

As for the findings of the CPC, the Commission IX also must take care to examine a number of irregularities in the project budget deliberation process that occurred during this time.  Discussions involved the Ministry of Health's budget to the Directorate General of Budget Ministry of Finance, along with the PT BF (SOEs) and PT AN.  BPK other thing to note is the increase in the budget to a total of Rp 2.2 trillion in 2011.  Commission IX must also review the involvement of PT AN actively in the implementation of the procurement of equipment and construction of bird flu vaccine production facilities ranging from budget planning, the bidding process, and as a vendor/contractor.

"In accordance with the Decree of Chairman of the House of Representatives, BAKN must be prepared within 14 working days to the commission IX BAKN to provide feedback to the House," said Eva.

Litany of Ex-Ministers Tied to Graft-Tainted Bird Flu Vaccine Plant

July 24, 2012
http://www.thejakartaglobe.com...
A graft-ridden project to build an avian influenza vaccine plant implicated three health ministers and one finance minister before former Democratic Party treasurer Muhammad Nazaruddin got involved, an audit has revealed.  According to the report from the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK), the project that began in 2008 and was halted in 2011 was conceived after state pharmaceutical company Bio Farma expressed interest in producing a bird flu vaccine.

In 2006, Bio Farma sent proposals to the World Health Organization and Japanese Embassy for funding.  The Japanese Embassy, through the Japan International Cooperation Agency, rejected the proposal.  But the WHO agreed to grant $2 million that was later used by Bio Farma to transfer technology for the bird flu vaccine downstream through its production process.  The state company then sent the same proposal to the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) and the plan was approved by then State-Owned Enterprises Minister Sugiharto.
Bio Farma also wrote a letter to then Health Minister Siti Fadillah Supari and said the company had approached the House of Representatives' Budget Committee to approve a grant for the project.
(snip)

Sugiharto, Paskah, Sri Mulyani and Siti were involved in the project during the budget disbursement in the 2008 revised state budget. The budget allocated at the time was around Rp 194 billion but only around Rp 144 billion was disbursed.  Before her term as minister ended, Siti proposed a greater budget allocation for the project that brought the figure to almost Rp 1.5 trillion from the initially estimated Rp 800 billion.  Her successor, Endang, continued the project in 2009 and lobbied the House to allocate Rp 490 billion for the project. The project was soon halted after suspicions emerged, based on the budget swelling threefold, that the project was riddled with graft.

"Indonesia to host not because most cases but it is the issue of global concern," said Kanchit Lipmakarnjanarat, WHO representative to Indonesia in the media briefing at the Ministry of Health Building, Friday (08/31/2012).

Though recorded the most number of cases, Indonesia is not the only country in Southeast Asia that have problems with bird flu. WHO records show there were 6 cases in Bangladesh, 1 case in Myanmar, 25 cases in Thailand and the largest is in Indonesia, namely 191 cases. Yet as confirmed by Kanchit, bird flu and influenza in general has become one of global concern in health.

Since 1957, WHO member states have to share influenza virus through the Global Influenza Surveillance and Response Network (GISRS). Several states also have developed the ability to make vaccines and is expected to play a role in transfer-technology cooperation. Through such cooperation, WHO invites its members to put together a preparedness plan in the face of a bird flu pandemic. For that reason, the bird flu is one focus of attention in meeting the WHO Southeast Asia region in Yogyakarta next week.

Another issue discussed in the meeting was the intensification of routine immunization, polio eradication and the health of the older generation. There are two agendas which will be held in a series of such events, the 30th Meeting of Ministers of Health of Countries of South-East Asia Region and the 65th Session of tea WHO Regional Comittee for South-East Asia Region. Both will take place at the Hotel Ambarukmo Yogyakarta, 4-7 September 2012.
