Svínaflensa

Svínaflensa er smitandi öndunarsjúkdómur sem herjar yfirleitt á svín og orsakast af inflúensuveiru.

Fólk sem vinnur með svín og svínaafurðir getur sýkst af afbrigðum af svínaflensu og getur vírusinn stökkbreyst þannig að svínaflensa geti smitast milli manna. Talið er að afbrigðið sem olli Svínaflensufaraldrinum 2009 sé þannig stökkbreyting af H1N1 afbrigði ^[1]
