摘要

2005年發現的三重組豬流感病毒僅可感染極少數的人而不致於流行；然而此病毒四年之後搖身一變，自2009年3月已演變爲可感染眾多人群的新型流感H1N1病毒，並在墨西哥發生群聚人病例的嚴重流行與死亡病例，至2009年6月26日近兩個半月已橫掃全球112國，造成59,814病例與263人死亡。此波流行足以彰顯新流感病毒對公共衛生的潛在健康威脅，在未來面對今年秋冬流感流行季的嚴重考驗，自跨國流行、擬定防疫政策至防堵社區流行，再再需要系統化的思考、跨領域的科際整合規劃及國際合作。

In 2005, surveillance systems first detected human cases infected with the swine-origin triple-reassorted influenza H1N1 virus. Four years later, this virus increased its transmissibility among human populations. In March of 2009, the further molecular changes of these triple-reassorted influenza H1N1 viruses were identified from the clustering patients with influenza-like illness in California, Texas, and Mexico. Within almost two and half months, this novel influenza H1N1 virus spread worldwide, attacked 112 countries and resulted in 59,814 cases and 263 deaths by June 26, 2009. The 2009 outbreak has given rise to potential public health threats caused by novel influenza viruses. In the upcoming autumn and winter seasons, we will definitely have to face greater challenges from transnational spreading, formulating public health policies to containing community outbreaks. All these need systematic thinking, inter-disciplinary research and international collaboration to reach the goal of global health.
