YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 10, ARMENPRESS: Not to get infected with A/H1N1
flue all the means necessary to get protected from the usual flue
may be undertaken as in two cases the symptoms of the infection are
the same. Specialists advise for instance use "Oxoline" ointment.
Armenian chief infectiologist Ara Asoyan told Armenpress that for being
protected from the flu it is necessary to strictly keep the hygienic
rules, avoid hand-shaking, kissing, contacting with people with flu,
using other's lip stick. Another way of spread of the infection is
using other's mobile phone. It is advised to use 2-3 liters of liquid,
products having vitamin C.
The answers from London referent laboratory whether the three suspected
cases in Armenia are A/H1N1 flue have not yet been received.
In case it is the case an official statement will be made.
A. Asoyan assures that there is enough of "Tamiflu" medicine in
Armenia which is considered an effective medicine to fight against
the flu, though it will be applied only in case of hard cases of the
disease. In general, means of treating usual flu will be applied.
"The possibility of treatment of H1N1 flu is 99%. The lethal case
is registered in 0.8-1% mainly among people who have chronic breath
diseases and lung issues," Asoyan said. The flu lightly passes among
healthy people and may be cured quickly. The important thing is to
apply to the doctor on time.
He said there was an initial agreement with the World Health Committee
to bring anti-flu injection to Armenia in late November but as far
as no cases of infection were registered, the time of bringing the
medicine was delayed till January, though with the registration of
these suspecting cases the time may be reviewed.
