Influenza H1N1 Introduction

What is Influenza A H1N1?  Influenza virus  Family Orthomyxoviridae  2 important surface proteins  Haemagglutinin (H)  Neuraminidase (N)  Frequent changes in surface proteins causes antigenic drifts and antigenic drifts

So what?  Changes in viral make up can create a completely new strain of virus  No immunity  No previous infection  No vaccination  Faster spread of disease among the population
