A swine influenza virus<br /> (SIV) is any strain of the influenza family of viruses that is usually hosted by (is endemic in) pigs. As of<br /> 2009, the known SIV strains are the influenza C virus and the subtypes of the influenza A virus known as<br /> H1N1, H1N2, H3N1, H3N2 and H2N3. Swine influenza is common in pigs in the mid-western United<br /> States (and occasionally in other states), Mexico, Canada, South America, Europe (including the UK,<br /> Sweden and Italy), Kenya, Mainland China, Taiwan, Japan and other parts of eastern Asia.<br /> Transmission of swine influenza virus from pigs to humans is not common and does not always cause<br /> human influenza, often only resulting in the production of antibodies in the blood. The meat of the<br /> animal poses no risk of transmitting the virus when properly cooked. If transmission does cause human<br /> influenza, it is called zoonotic swine flu. People who work with pigs, especially people<br /> with intense exposures, are at increased risk of catching swine flu. In the mid-20th century, identification<br /> of influenza subtypes became possible, this allows accurate diagnosis of transmission to humans. Since<br /> then, fifty confirmed transmissions have been recorded, rarely, these strains of swine flu can pass from<br /> human to human. In humans, the symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of influenza and of influenzalike illness in general, namely chills, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, weakness<br /> and general discomfort.<br /> The 2009 flu outbreak in humans, known as “swine flu’, is due to a new strain of influenza A virus<br /> subtype H1N1 that contains genes closely related to swine influenza. The origin of this new strain is<br /> unknown. However, the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) reports that this strain has not been<br /> isolated in pigs. This strain can be transmitted from human to human, and causes the normal symptoms of<br /> influenza.<br /> Câu 33: What is the main topic of the passage?<br /> A. The 2009 flu outbreak<br /> B.
