Abstract:ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological characteristics and regularity of human avian influenza A (H7N9) and provide the scientific evidence for the prevention and control of disease. MethodsEpidemiological analysis was conducted on 25 laboratory confirmed cases of human infection with H7N9 virus in Shenzhen.ResultsThe 25 cases were confirmed during December 19,2013 - may 1, 2014.Of the 2 deaths, 14 cases were males. 11 cases were females. The youngest of six years old, The oldest of 81 years old. The median of patients’age was 53 years old.17 cases are 40 years or older, with the proportion of 68.0%. Epidemiological survey indicated that of the 16 cases had histories of exposure to alive poultry markets.Medical supervision was conducted for 867 close contacts|including 631 medical staff.No secondary cases were found.Conclusion old people are the susceptible population of human avian influenza A ( H7N9) .and no evidence of human to human transmission was found.Standard management of alive poultry markets is important to prevent H7N9 virus infection in urban population|and it is necessary to expand and strengthen the surveillance of Fever pneumonia and Unexplained pneumonia and control the spread of H7N9 virus.
