According to the report, the patient was accompanied by severe pneumonia, severe sepsis and multiple organ failure (acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock, impaired liver and kidney function). At present, Hubei has formed an expert group on H7N9 influenza prevention and treatment, taking isolation treatment for patients, managing close contacts of patients, and strengthening prevention and control measures such as epidemic monitoring and health education.
Experts believe that spring is the frequent period of H7N9 influenza, and the epidemic characteristics and pathogenic biological characteristics of the disease have not changed, and the conditions for human-to-human transmission are not yet available, so the public need not panic too much.
Experts remind that in the spring flu season, the public, especially the elderly, children, pregnant women, patients with basic diseases and other people with low immunity, should try not to go to the farmer's market where live birds are sold.
Experts also reminded that the prevention and control of H7N9 influenza should be "three wants and three don 'ts": wash your hands frequently, wash your hands after contact with birds, and wash your hands before and after meals; To cook, eggs should be cooked before eating; See a doctor early. Do not eat dead poultry meat, do not buy poultry products from unknown sources, and try to reduce unnecessary contact with live birds. If you have respiratory symptoms such as fever, cough, headache and general malaise, you should go to the nearest medical and health institution as soon as possible.
