The following are?
Inluenza H1N1 Measles Virus B. pertusis E. coli 0157:H7 Salmonella |
Re Emerging Pathogens
-ie, used to be under control Which are more likely to be Re-Emerging |
Virus>bacteria>fungi?parasite --less host assistance required, more easily adaptable to host. |
|
What are 2 Emerging Pathogens
|
Chikungunya Virus
Granulobacter bethesdensis in CGD When did these guys 1st appear/re-appear? |
Chikungunya first in 1960s, back in 2004 G. bethesdensis first in 2006 |
|
Name some more examples of Re-Emergin Pathogens
|
Enterovirus 71
Mumps virus C. diff Group A Strep Staph A |
|
|
Where do the ReEm Paths come from (3 MOA)
|
Develop Resistance: ie, XDR-TB
Decline in Vac Rates: pertusis, measles Re-assortment from another species--invade new host pops |
|
|
What was E. Colis 0157:H7s original host?
|
Cattle, jumped to peeps in 1982
|
|
|
Describe Str of Influenza A
nucleic acid? H Ag? N Ag |
8 strands of (-) sense ssRNA
--HA has 16 subtypes ===major surface glycoprotein spike. Viral Entry--binds sialic acid -Neuraminidase has 9 subtypes -2nd surface glycoportein spike. Virion release |
|
|
What results in an altered Serotype of a specific strain?
|
Antigenic DRIFT
-selection pressure created by Abs. -Drift occurs mostly in mammalian hosts |
|
|
Antigenic Shift?
|
Wholesale changes in gene segments
-Infecton of a host with 2 SEPARATE influenza strains to construct a new virus What specieas are good vessels for SHIFT |
Ducks and Pigs |
|
What was age group most affected by H1N1
|
5-24 years
-Still, either the elderly or the very young are the ones who typically died due to it |
|
|
What Path meets criteria for eradication--humans are ONLY resevoir
With vaccine? |
Measles Virus (M of MMR vac)
|
|
|
What are criteria for eradication in general?
|
humans are critical for transmission
-sensitive and speific diagnostic tools exist -effective intervention is available |
|
|
MEasles today
|
9 countries have no indiginous measles in last 5 years
-Still high death rates in countries with Low vac rates---sub-saharan africa - What other Virus was added to list of Re Emergin Paths in US |
Mumps |
|
What are Sx of Measles Virus?
|
Sx: Prodromal Fever, cough ,coryza, conjunctivitis. Maculopapular Rash
--deaths due to increased susceptibility to 2nd Path Dz--MV-Induced Immunosuppresion --don't wory about these above/below --Respirartory Droplet Transmission |
|
|
Which has periodic epidemics or outbreaks every 3 to 5 years. in 2009 17K reported in US
|
Pertussis/ Whooping Cough
--Institutional Outbreaks Common--schools--hospitals Where was recent outbreak with 8K cases of pertussis? |
2010 in California -10 infant deaths the most cases reported in 63 years |
|
What was the last really big E Coli outbreak?
|
Spinach in 2006
-26 states, 3 confirmed deaths, infection in many |
|
|

|
What ReEmergin Bug has had outbreaks in 2010 in:
Alfalfa sprouts, Shell Eggs, Frozen Entres, Fruit Pulp, Frozen Rodent Feed, Red and Black Peper, water Frogs* |
Salmonella
Note: in Fuit Pulp and Frogs, it was Typhi species of Salmonella What was source of Large Salmonella outbreak in 08/09 |
Peanut Butter caused 9 deaths of 600+ infected |
|
Which bug family has shown a Large Increase in Foodborne illnes in last 10 or so years?
|
Vibrio
--most others show decrease in USA foodborne infections |
