<b>Situation</b>
Unusually high levels of respiratory illness have been reported this week in Nationwide Children\'s Hospital\'s emergency department, and samples are being sent out for testing to see whether a rare virus might be to blame. \"Obviously, it\'s a concern,\" Dr. Mysheika Williams Roberts, medical director and assistant commissioner at Columbus Public Health, said of the volume of respiratory cases. \"What we are experiencing is unusual for us this time of year.\" Last week, respiratory symptoms were the chief complaint of an average of 52 patients per day in the hospital\'s emergency department. From Sunday through Tuesday of this week, respiratory symptoms were the chief complaint of an average of 73 patients per day, a 40 percent increase. Some of those illnesses might be cases of human enterovirus 68, Roberts said. That virus apparently has sickened dozens of kids in the Kansas City, Mo., area, in recent weeks. Nationwide Children\'s officials said they hope the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention can confirm whether any of the local hospital\'s patients with respiratory problems are HEV68 cases. It wasn\'t immediately clear how many of Nationwide Children\'s recent cases of respiratory illness might be caused by HEV68, nor was it clear how many possible HEV68 cases resulted in hospitalization. The hospital is testing only severely ill patients for the virus, which usually is not fatal but can cause wheezing and shortness of breath. There is no vaccine. Columbus Public Health said typical precautions help to prevent the spread of the virus, including washing one\'s hands before touching the eyes, nose or mouth and avoiding kissing, hugging and sharing eating utensils with those who might be infected. Disinfecting surfaces also is prudent. HEV68, first isolated in California in 1962, is a unique enterovirus that shares characteristics with human rhinoviruses. The hospital yesterday had not implemented visitor restrictions, a spokeswoman said; they are
common during the winter-flu season. The spokeswoman also noted that visits to emergency departments and urgent-care centers sometimes increase when school resumes. Nationwide Children\'s is the only children\'s hospital in Ohio that has contacted the Ohio Department of Health about sending specimens, said spokeswoman Melanie Amato. Meanwhile, the state Health Department is expected to announce that Ohio\'s measles outbreak is officially over. As of yesterday, no new cases of measles had been reported in Ohio since July 23. The state had said it would consider the outbreak officially over when two incubation periods, or 42 consecutive days, had passed. In all, 377 cases were reported in Ashland, Coshocton, Crawford, Highland, Holmes, Knox, Richland, Stark and Wayne counties. The outbreak started in April.

EDIS CODE: VIV-20140908-45199-GBR
Date & Time: 2014-09-08 03:15:32 [UTC]
Area: United Kingdom, England, Gatwick Airport, Gatwick
Description:
An Air China flight from London to Beijing was forced to turn back and make an emergency landing after landing gear became jammed shortly after take-off. Flight CA852 circled over southern England and the English Channel, where it is believed to have dumped fuel in order to make the aircraft lighter, several times before returning to the airport. The flight had taken off as scheduled at 1.30pm and landed almost two hours later. The alert sparked the closure of one of Gatwick Airport's runways for 20 minutes, an airport spokesman said. No injures were reported on board the Airbus. Air China did not comment on the incident when reached by the South China Morning Post on Monday. Industry website Aviation Herald, which logs aviation events, reported that the plane had suffered a hydraulic failure as it climbed from Gatwick's runway. It said the nose gear had retracted after take-off but that a hydraulic failure had stopped the main gear struts from retracting. This was in line with an
account from a Chinese microblog user who said he works for Air China. The blogger posted several photos on his personal Weibo account purportedly taken in the plane cabin during the flight that showed hydraulic failure in the plane's panels. The plane was later towed from the runway and the runway was reopened. A number of flights from the airport were believed to have been delayed as a result of the emergency.

Area: Oman, Capital City, , Muscat
Description:
A sudden spike in the temperature has caused a surge in people complaining about viral fever across Muscat, say doctors. Hospitals in the city have been receiving patients of all age groups, male and female, with viral fever, running nose and a sore throat for the past week. Apart from prescribing medicines, doctors are advising patients to focus on personal hygiene to prevent further spread of the viral to others in the family and at work places. Talking to the Times of Oman, Dr Pradeep Maheshwari, specialist of internal medicine at the Atlas Hospital, Ruwi, said that more than the usual number of people were complaining about the viral fever and cold. "This health condition has resulted in sudden increase in the temperature. In such a climate when the temperature fluctuates, the chances of viral infection increases," he said. Now that people have come back from vacations abroad or from their home countries, or from foreign tours where weather conditions were very different and
where even their children had accompanied them, they are becoming infected by the viral fever. Their children have also joined schools and some of them have also been complaining of fever and cold. This happens almost every year with slightly different intensity, he said. Maheshwari said that in normal cases, such an infection goes away in a few days or a week's time, depending on an individual's body condition. Only in some cases, anti-biotic medicines are required. However, if there are more complications, such as difficulty in breathing, they should immediately consult a doctor, he said. However, as a preventive measure, they should avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or drinking water that is too cold or hot.rnrnThey should avoid sudden switch from very low temperature to high temperature areas too frequently, he said. Dr Asha G Pillai, an intern at the Badr Al Samaa Hospital, Ruwi, also said that a lot of people have suddenly started coming complaining of sore throat, cold
and fever which in most cases is being diagnosed as a case of viral infection. She said that apart from medicines, it was important to focus on personal hygiene. "People should play safe and immediately consult a doctor to seek the right advice and prevent further complications. Though such cases happen almost every year, this health condition, however, should not be ignored as it is painful and can get prolonged if timely medicines and expert advice is not taken," said Pillai. Sujith Mathew, an Indian who had brought his son to the doctor, said the child had fever and cold for two days, and could not go to school. The doctor had given him some medicines and advised that he should stay at home for a couple of more days since he required rest and must not allow the infection to spread among his classmates. Because of his current health condition, his son was neither able to focus on studies nor games, he said. Abdul Hai, a Pakistani site engineer, said that he suddenly had fever
after working under the sun. He said, "I was feeling uncomfortable due to the temperature difference at my air conditioned house and at the work place under the sun. These days, temperature outside is also high and I was expecting that I would fall sick." Suad Al Balushi, an Omani housewife, said that her daughter had gone to school but in the evening, "we found that she was having fever." "The doctor told us to keep her at home for a few days, and take some medicines. We have been asked to look after her and that she must adhere to the preventive measures as advised by the doctor. She is a small child and we have to look after her," she said.
