According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the virus is \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/features/foodborne-diseases-data/\">responsible\u003c/a> for 35 percent of them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/vitalsigns/norovirus/index.html\">there are\u003c/a> billions of virus particles per gram in stool and vomit. It takes only about 20 of those to get someone sick. And norovirus can hitchhike from surface to surface. It takes a high concentration of bleach to kill it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And so it just takes microcontamination of your hands, if you don't do a perfect job washing, to be able to contaminate food with enough of the virus to infect lots and lots of people,\" says Smith.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same virus has plagued restaurant customers across the country. Last winter, 140 people — including much of the Boston College basketball team — got sick \u003ca href=\"http://www.bphc.org/onlinenewsroom/Blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=878\">from eating\u003c/a> at a Chipotle in Boston where one person had gone to work sick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's definitely the norm to go into work sick.

While cases have been declining for a few weeks, state health officials still recommend people get vaccinated, if they haven't already.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State health officials have released the latest numbers on flu deaths -- 202 people have died so far this year and that's up from 147 last week. That's the bad news, but for the first time since early January, health officials are also saying that cases appear to be declining. At least for now. Flu season generally runs three months and is \"notoriously unpredictable,\" said Dr. James Watt, with the California Department of Public Heatlh and recommended that everyone got vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here at State of Health, we've noticed that a lot of the same questions come up again and again. With that in mind, we've compiled some answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. Is the flu shot really the best way I can avoid getting the flu? \u003c/strong>In a word, yes. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/keyfacts.htm\" target=\"_blank\">says\u003c/a> \"the single best way to protect against the flu is to get vaccinated each year.\" And you need to get it annually. While everyone over age 6 months should have it, CDC says, it's especially important for people in high risk groups including:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>People with certain underlying medical conditions including asthma, diabetes, chronic lung disease and obesity\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Children under age 5 and adults over age 65\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Pregnant women -- yes, pregnant women, the vaccine is safe and effective for you, CDC says.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Getting the flu shot is not a guarantee that you will not get the flu. \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/qa/vaccineeffect.htm\" target=\"_blank\">No vaccine is perfect\u003c/a>, but even if you get sick, you are likely to have a more mild course of illness if you have had the vaccine. If you haven't gotten vaccinated yet, you can find a flu shot location near you by \u003ca href=\"http://flushot.healthmap.org\" target=\"_blank\">entering your zip code on this map\u003c/a> run by the federal government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(As an aside, I became a fan of the flu shot after I got the flu many years ago. It came on suddenly one afternoon -- but I had Bruce Springsteen tickets that night and was determined to go. I felt worse and worse all afternoon. When I got to the Coliseum, I believe I heard the first couple songs and then fell asleep. I proceeded to sleep and fight fever for the next two days, then spent another several days recovering. It was awful.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Why is the H1N1 strain such a big deal? \u003c/strong>The H1N1 strain surfaced in April, 2009. The first reported cases were in Mexico, and the strain went on to cause a \"pandemic\" (i.e., a global epidemic). Scientists raced to create a vaccine, but it took months. In California alone, over a roughly 16 month period, more than 600 people died. What was unusual about this strain is that the death rate in adults under 65 was higher than adults over 65. Usually influenza hits the elderly harder. Epidemiologists theorize that a similar strain may have been circulating decades ago, so older adults have some immunity to H1N1. But those under 65, not so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Why does California only track flu deaths in people under 65? \u003c/strong>Taking a step back, state officials say they believe California is the only state that tracks all flu deaths in adults. The CDC samples the country and then estimates deaths for people of all ages, but does not require reporting of all flu deaths from any state. California only started tracking flu deaths on a case-by-case basis in the 2011-2012 flu season. The legislature had passed a mandatory reporting requirement in the wake of the H1N1 pandemic noted above. The state says the goal of reporting is to track the severity of the flu season. Because flu is so common in the elderly, the state says, tracking deaths in that group would not be as good an indicator of severity. And besides, it's not required by law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. Can the flu shot give me the flu? \u003c/strong>In a word, no. The vaccine is created from killed viruses. While the shot cannot give you the flu, it can have minor side effects including soreness or swelling at the site of the injection, low fever or aches. Many children like the nasal spray vaccine. Here the viruses are weakened and cannot cause severe flu symptoms. But it still can cause minor side effects including runny nose, wheezing, aches and fever. CDC says that if these side effects happen, they usually start soon after vaccination and don't last long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. If the flu season is peaking, then I don't need to worry about the flu until next year, right? \u003c/strong>Um, no. This question comes up frequently in the weekly media call about flu with state health officials. They're pretty clear that flu is unpredictable, that you can only know the season has ended after it has ended, and that even if we're past a peak now, there could be another round -- something they referred to as the \"double bump.\" Health officials continue to encourage everyone over age 6 months to get vaccinated.

With that in mind, we've compiled some answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. Is the flu shot really the best way I can avoid getting the flu? \u003c/strong>In a word, yes. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/keyfacts.htm\" target=\"_blank\">says\u003c/a> \"the single best way to protect against the flu is to get vaccinated each year.\" And you need to get it annually. While everyone over age 6 months should have it, CDC says, it's especially important for people in high risk groups including:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>People with certain underlying medical conditions including asthma, diabetes, chronic lung disease and obesity\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Children under age 5 and adults over age 65\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Pregnant women -- yes, pregnant women, the vaccine is safe and effective for you, CDC says.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Getting the flu shot is not a guarantee that you will not get the flu. \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/qa/vaccineeffect.htm\" target=\"_blank\">No vaccine is perfect\u003c/a>, but even if you get sick, you are likely to have a more mild course of illness if you have had the vaccine. If you haven't gotten vaccinated yet, you can find a flu shot location near you by \u003ca href=\"http://flushot.healthmap.org\" target=\"_blank\">entering your zip code on this map\u003c/a> run by the federal government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(As an aside, I became a fan of the flu shot after I got the flu many years ago. It came on suddenly one afternoon -- but I had Bruce Springsteen tickets that night and was determined to go. I felt worse and worse all afternoon. When I got to the Coliseum, I believe I heard the first couple songs and then fell asleep. I proceeded to sleep and fight fever for the next two days, then spent another several days recovering. It was awful.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Why is the H1N1 strain such a big deal? \u003c/strong>The H1N1 strain surfaced in April, 2009. The first reported cases were in Mexico, and the strain went on to cause a \"pandemic\" (i.e., a global epidemic). Scientists raced to create a vaccine, but it took months. In California alone, over a roughly 16 month period, more than 600 people died. What was unusual about this strain is that the death rate in adults under 65 was higher than adults over 65. Usually influenza hits the elderly harder. Epidemiologists theorize that a similar strain may have been circulating decades ago, so older adults have some immunity to H1N1. But those under 65, not so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Why does California only track flu deaths in people under 65? \u003c/strong>Taking a step back, state officials say they believe California is the only state that tracks all flu deaths in adults. The CDC samples the country and then estimates deaths for people of all ages, but does not require reporting of all flu deaths from any state. California only started tracking flu deaths on a case-by-case basis in the 2011-2012 flu season. The legislature had passed a mandatory reporting requirement in the wake of the H1N1 pandemic noted above. The state says the goal of reporting is to track the severity of the flu season. Because flu is so common in the elderly, the state says, tracking deaths in that group would not be as good an indicator of severity. And besides, it's not required by law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. Can the flu shot give me the flu? \u003c/strong>In a word, no. The vaccine is created from killed viruses. While the shot cannot give you the flu, it can have minor side effects including soreness or swelling at the site of the injection, low fever or aches. Many children like the nasal spray vaccine. Here the viruses are weakened and cannot cause severe flu symptoms. But it still can cause minor side effects including runny nose, wheezing, aches and fever. CDC says that if these side effects happen, they usually start soon after vaccination and don't last long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. If the flu season is peaking, then I don't need to worry about the flu until next year, right? \u003c/strong>Um, no. This question comes up frequently in the weekly media call about flu with state health officials. They're pretty clear that flu is unpredictable, that you can only know the season has ended after it has ended, and that even if we're past a peak now, there could be another round -- something they referred to as the \"double bump.\" Health officials continue to encourage everyone over age 6 months to get vaccinated. While it can take two weeks for antibodies to kick in after you get the vaccine, you will be protected after that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Learn more:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED Newsroom's Thuy Vu discussed this year's flu season with Dr. Erica Pan, Alameda County of Public Health, and me Friday night on the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/ZU0TXuNb9Ys'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/ZU0TXuNb9Ys'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_auto_sidebar id=\"H6LrfRby61J9O4WQO6Vd4VPLltEkkXeX\"]\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/stateofhealth/17542/5-things-you-should-know-about-this-years-h1n1-flu-influenza","authors":["240"],"categories":["stateofhealth_12"],"tags":["stateofhealth_403","stateofhealth_33","stateofhealth_488","stateofhealth_461"],"featImg":"stateofhealth_17571","label":"stateofhealth"},"stateofhealth_17413":{"type":"posts","id":"stateofhealth_17413","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"stateofhealth","id":"17413","score":null,"sort":[1391220185000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"flu-death-count-continues-to-climb","title":"Flu Death Count Continues to Climb","publishDate":1391220185,"format":"aside","headTitle":"State of Health | KQED News","labelTerm":{"site":"stateofhealth"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_17421\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2014/01/8481_transform.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-large wp-image-17421\" title=\"\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2014/01/8481_transform-640x421.jpg\" alt=\"KQED News interactive producer Olivia Hubert-Allen gets her flu shot.

And two died in the first part of March. But once the Chinese hospitals got the country's public health agency -- the China CDC -- involved and they found the new virus, that organization quickly mapped the genetic sequences of the first three viruses and uploaded them into a database that international flu scientists can access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That prompt sharing allowed outside experts to start studying the viruses to look for clues to their origin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All eight genes of each virus were avian, meaning these were bird flu viruses. But all the viruses showed several genetic changes that scientists who study influenza recognize as signals of a virus adapting to spread in mammals, not birds. Those changes mean the virus is learning to attach to the type of cells people have in their upper airways, the type of cells that human flu viruses infect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those signs of adaptation ratcheted up the concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would be paying very close attention to any situation in which you have a novel influenza virus which has caused some cases of infection and caused some deaths,\" Fukuda says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But I think that the molecular changes also make us pay a lot of attention.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Webby, a swine flu expert who runs the WHO's influenza collaborating centre at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn., says those genetic changes suggest the virus may no longer be circulating in birds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He believes it is in mammals.

Two were in Shanghai, China's largest megacity. But the third was in the nearby province of Anhui. As more cases have emerged, the geographic distance among infections has become greater, making it increasingly clear that there is H7N9 virus spreading, undetected, over hundreds of kilometres in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Keiji Fukuda, the World Health Organization's top flu expert explains: \"It's possible that we have infected animals. But we still haven't detected actually what is the infected animal and whether it's these animals that are spread out and individuals in a widespread area are coming into contact (with them) and becoming ill.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other option? \"At the same time you have to be thinking about is there any evidence of person-to-person transmission,\" Fukuda, the WHO's assistant director-general for health security and environment, told The Canadian Press in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>------\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When people show up in hospitals sick with pneumonia, it can take a while to figure out what bacteria or virus is making them ill. It takes even longer when tests for known culprits come back negative, and laboratories have to start thinking about whether they are dealing with something new.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first known H7N9 cases started getting sick in late February. And two died in the first part of March. But once the Chinese hospitals got the country's public health agency -- the China CDC -- involved and they found the new virus, that organization quickly mapped the genetic sequences of the first three viruses and uploaded them into a database that international flu scientists can access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That prompt sharing allowed outside experts to start studying the viruses to look for clues to their origin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All eight genes of each virus were avian, meaning these were bird flu viruses. But all the viruses showed several genetic changes that scientists who study influenza recognize as signals of a virus adapting to spread in mammals, not birds. Those changes mean the virus is learning to attach to the type of cells people have in their upper airways, the type of cells that human flu viruses infect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those signs of adaptation ratcheted up the concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would be paying very close attention to any situation in which you have a novel influenza virus which has caused some cases of infection and caused some deaths,\" Fukuda says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But I think that the molecular changes also make us pay a lot of attention.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Webby, a swine flu expert who runs the WHO's influenza collaborating centre at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn., says those genetic changes suggest the virus may no longer be circulating in birds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He believes it is in mammals. That could mean pigs, which are called mixing bowls of influenza, because they can be infected with both human and bird flu viruses, providing a chance for genes to swap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or it could mean the virus is spreading in people.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Typically with influenza, we see a (relatively) small number of deaths, many very sick people and then a large group with such mild symptoms they might not even know they have the flu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, experts don't know if that's the case with this flu or if it's something much more serious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Longtime pandemic-watcher and Pulitzer Prize winner\u003ca href=\"http://www.lauriegarrett.com/index.php/en/home/\" target=\"_blank\"> Laurie Garrett \u003c/a>filed \u003ca href=\"http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2013/04/01/is_this_a_pandemic_being_born_china_pigs_virus?page=0,2\" target=\"_blank\">this piece\u003c/a> earlier this week for Foreign Policy where she examines whether the recent (and mysterious) mass deaths of pigs and ducks are linked to the flu deaths in people. \"Is this a pandemic being born?\" the headline asks.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/stateofhealth/11967/new-flu-strain-in-china-how-far-will-it-spread","authors":["240"],"categories":["stateofhealth_166","stateofhealth_14"],"tags":["stateofhealth_488","stateofhealth_461"],"label":"stateofhealth"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
