we're probably going to still see flu activity until the middle of april, so if you have the flu or flu symptoms, it's certainly important to see your doctor and stay at home. influenza is a leading cause of death in the united states, especially in a severe flu season. every year thousands of americans die from the flu and thousands more are hospitalized from flu-related complications. since 2010, the flu has caused between 12,000 and 56,000 deaths per year. this year was no exception. tragically, as of february 24, there have already been 114 influenza-associated pediatric death this season. some of those deaths have occurred in my home state of mississippi. although we've enhanced our preparedness for the flu in recent years, there's still room for improvement. the best way to prevent the flu is by getting your flu shot. millions of americans receive a flu shot every year to help protect them against this illness. unfortunately, there are many americans that do not do that. last year, only 59% of children and about 43% of adults received flu vaccination. even though only a little ove

flu. during past seasons, about 80% of flu-associated deaths in children have occurred in children who were not vaccinated. similarly, a recent study found that receiving the flu vaccine reduced severe outcomes and hospitalized patients by reducing deaths, reducing icu admissions, reducing icu lengths of stays, and reducing overall length of stay for hospital patients. while the flu vaccine is currently the best tool to prevent illness, there is room for improvement. the cdc announced this year's flu vaccine was only about 36% effective in preventing an individual from getting the flu. the vaccine's effectiveness varied from different age groups and for different strains of the virus. for example, the vaccine was 59% effective in children, however it was much less effective in adults. for all age groups, the vaccine was only 25% effective this season against the deadliest strain of the flu, h3n2. the vaccines reduced effectiveness against h3n2 is especially concerning. historically we have

flu. there are no cycles. what does pandemic mean? pandemic as opposed to epidemic means it is widespread, number one. number two, it is a new virus, new in the sense that the population has never experienced this particular virus, as opposed to seasonal flu, where maybe you did not see the same h3n2 last year, but one this year is very similar to it, and you have cross-reactivity. , almost no one in the population has had any prior experience except maybe the real people who may have experienced something 40, 50 years ago. -- theyeard, the 1918 called it a spanish flu for some reason, which we can discuss later, but it had nothing to do with spain. there were about 15 million to 100 million deaths. reason that is important, 50 million to 100 million deaths in 1918, when the population is 1/3 of what it is now, means a lot of deaths. the important thing is that, for a single season, this is the most cataclysmic public-health health event in the history of our civilization. if you look at c

flu. what does pandemic mean? it means it is widespread. also, it is a new virus. new in the sense that the population in general has never experienced this particular virus. flu.posed to seasonal pandemic, almost no one in the population has sent any prior experience except maybe very old people. heard, the 1918 spanish about 50 million to 100 million deaths. that was a lot of deaths in real-time. the important thing is that for a single season this is the most cataclysmic public-health event in the history of our civilization. if you look at cumulative deaths of smallpox and measles, there are a lot more than this, but to have it happen in one season, we have never seen anything like that. which tells you of the threat and importance of respiratory born diseases. we like to think about seaningsable and pandemic flu as connectd with each other. what do we do when we respond? here, as some of you know, we do basic and clinical research to develop counter measures. vaccines are the most imp

flu and as i can tell you flu is not a simple disease it's a quite dangerous disease even and especially in older patients in elderly in the elderly as well in the very very young patients in the children below five years so you would actually recommend flu shots every year truly all the time because if they only one thing with which can could prevent the flu and we have a viewer question does it consults from lima wants to know what you can personally do to pretty self against the flu and other infectious viruses in the open space office or public places for instance that's a very good question because everybody thinking flu is transmitted by coughing only by coughing but the first thing that is really important is the hand hygiene so you know every day at least ten fifteen twenty times we're touching on the nose or mouth with our hands and we just transmit the infectious diseases pathogens the viruses the flu virus from the mouse to the hands and then we shake hands with other people and so we transmitted through the first thing is a good hand hygiene or with washing it doesn't matter

what do we mean by universal flu vaccine? he held the meeting in june in maryland and we reported on the proceedings of the meeting. we just recently published on line in our strategic plan in research agenda for developing a universal flu vaccine. their number of targets for flu vaccines. the common denominator is you walked the body to make a response against the part of the virus that doesn't change. we know there's a part of the virus that always trips or changes from season to season. we want to make a vaccine that uses a response as part of the virus that doesn't change. these are several of the targets the nuclear protein and just for the sake of example and this isn't the only one i'm going to pick out the hemoagglutinin molecule b. the hemoagglutinin molecule has got what we called ahead in the stem. if you look at it when i don't have the pictures and fir told the audience to think of a block with the head or a stock or a mushroom. there's a big difference between those two components. the head which is the one we h

the flu vaccine, about 40% on average since 2005 of the. but it is effectivenessaries widely season to season with estimates of this year's flu shot at 36%. that's because the part of the flu virus targeted by the seasonal vaccine changes each year. efforts are underway to develop a so call universal flu vaccine one that would work no matter what strain of flu is circulating and be durab for multiple seasons. this doctor is among those working on such a vaccines, what those in the field refer to as inflnza's holy grail. >> a universal flu vaccine is one which would last lifetime hopefully but at least we hope it works for 20 years or even longer. >> reporter: only recently have discoveries about the flu virus and new technologies enable the work on the universal flu accelerate. >> we only realized ten or more years ago that there was a part of the virus that dsn't change from season to season. once we recognized that, the real problem and the stumb block is how do you get the body to preferentially make a response against that molecule? >>

early in this flu season the public health department warned that this year's flu vaccine may not beeffective in years past. last month the centers for disease control estimated that the vaccine was just 36% effective. now, california will put out outdated data on flu deaths in the state in three hours, but as of last friday there were 214 people who died from the flu in california among folks younger than 65, of those 97 people had vaccination records available. of the people who died 58 were not vaccinated, but, yes, 42% were vaccinated. that is 41 people. now, even in cases where the flu vaccine is not fully effective in preventing the flu it can decrease the severity and duration so there is still that advice to get the flu shot for anyone over the age of six months because it can be very complicated if you get the flu even when you have a flu vaccine. now, the california department of health is going to put out new numbers and when they do we will make sure we pass those along to you. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >>> opd is reaching out so far unsuccessfully to
