Variant H3N2 flu cases surge in Indiana, Ohio | @scoopit http://t.co/dDdhuemh From ProMED Mail this morning: "The count of swine-origin variant H3N2 influenza (H3N2v) cases in Indiana soared to 113 today [8 Aug 2012], a jump of about 100, while Ohio reported a total of 30 cases, double the previous number. But the states said they have not found any person-to-person transmission of the virus. In a news release, the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) said the 113 cases are scattered among 18 counties and predicted that more cases would be confirmed this week. Most of the previous cases have been in children who had contact with pigs at county fairs, but today's announcement gave no details about the patients' age range, swine exposure, or severity of illness. The Ohio announcement states, "There are currently 30 cases of H3N2v statewide; all individuals had direct contact with swine at fairs and no human-to-human passage of the virus has been confirmed."" WHile this may well fizzle out, H3N2v has been bubbling under for quite some time - and this could be the break-out as an epidemic or pandemic. Or not. Seriously good idea to keep surveiling though.
