A novel strategy for exploring the reassortment origins of newly emerging influenza virus
In early 2009, new swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus emerged in Mexico and the United States. The emerging influenza virus had made global influenza pandemic for nearly one year. To every emerging pathogen, exploring the origin sources is vital for viral control and clearance. Influenza virus is different from other virus in that it has 8 segments, making the segment reassortment a main dri...
متن کاملMedical countermeasures for pandemic influenza: ethics and the law.
SERIOUS OUTBREAKS OF AVIAN INFLUENZA A (H5N1) have occurred among birds in Asia, with cases now reported in Europe. Although H5N1 is highly contagious among birds, it is rare in humans due to a significant species barrier. As of January 7, 2006, 146 cases were reported with 76 deaths. Human-to-human transmission has occurred, but transmission to date has not continued beyond one person. The pre...
متن کاملEmerging infections: pandemic influenza.
The report of the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Emerging Microbial Threats to Health in the United States, published in 1992, defines influenza virus as the prototype emerging infection (1). Pandemics of influenza have been recognized since earliest recorded history and, because of the mutability of the virus, still represent a formidable threat to the health of the nation. Although much...
متن کاملInfluenza: an emerging disease.
Because all known influenza A subtypes exist in the aquatic bird reservoir, influenza is not an eradicable disease; prevention and control are the only realistic goals. If people, pigs, and aquatic birds are the principal variables associated with interspecies transfer of influenza virus and the emergence of new human pandemic strains, influenza surveillance in these species is indicated. Live-...
متن کاملEmerging-Image Motion CAPTCHAs: Vulnerabilities of Existing Designs, and Countermeasures
Based on the notion of “emergence”, Xu et al. (Usenix Security 2012; TDSC 2013) developed the first concrete instantiation of emerging-image moving-object (EIMO) CAPTCHAs using 2D hollow objects (codewords), shown to be usable and believed to be secure. In this paper, we highlight the hidden security weaknesses of such a 2D EIMO CAPTCHA design. A key vulnerability is that the camera projection ...
