Can an animal infect the flu to me A?

To avoid the contagion of the flu A. This is one of the worries of million persons in the whole world, although little by little the incidence of the illness is minor than it seemed to the beginning, when all the alarm voices came untied. Immediately after the contagion, in this health blog we have risen the following question to ourselves: can an animal infect the flu to me A?

We could finish rapidly saying a round one not, since the new virus of the flu A (H1N1) only is transmitted between human beings. Namely there is no risk of contagion of animals to persons, therefore if you have animals at home, you do not have to be afraid and can live with them without problems.

This is the conclusion to which they have come in the WHO (World Organization of the Health), which has said publicly through that the persons can live with animals without any risk of contagion of the flu A on the part of these.

At the beginning of the spread of the flu A there were many persons who were thinking, ignorantemente, that the animals that had been in contact with gluttons, the supposed initial bearers of the new virus of the flu A, could transmit the illness. Well, studies carried out in different points of the planet have shown that there is no any contagion risk and that at the moment, there is not known any case of contagion of animals to human beings.

In the same way, to eat pork is sure, as we saw already in this blog. Therefore, and to conclude, we answer with a round one not to the question: can an animal infect the flu to me A? If you live with cats or with dogs as favourite animals you do not have why to be afraid of anything.
