This project aims to strengthen the pandemic readiness of the Pan-American Health Organization(PAHO) member countries in 2009 and 2010. It also aims to address the current emergency situation triggered by a new strain of the Influenza A(H1N1) 2009 virus, which has had an impact on public health care systems and economies in the Americas and globally. Taking into account the additional burden on existing weak public health care systems, this emergency situation requires the immediate bolstering of the response capacity of the affected member countries. 1, record 1, English, - Pan%2DAmerican%20Health%20Organization%20%28PAHO%29%20Immediate%20Response%20to%20the%20H1N1%20Influenza%20pandemic

Ce projet vise à améliorer l'état de préparation à la pandémie des pays membres de l'Organisation panaméricaine de la santé (OPS) en 2009 et en 2010. Il a aussi pour but d'examiner la situation d'urgence amenée par une nouvelle souche du virus de la grippe A (H1N1) qui a eu un impact sur les systèmes de soins de santé publique et sur les économies dans les Amériques et le monde entier. Compte tenu des pressions additionnelles posées sur les systèmes de santé publique déjà faibles, cette situation d'urgence appelle une amélioration immédiate de la capacité de réaction des pays membres touchés par la pandémie. 1, record 1, French, - Organisation%20panam%C3%A9ricaine%20de%20la%20sant%C3%A9%20%2D%20R%C3%A9action%20imm%C3%A9diate%20%C3%A0%20la%20pand%C3%A9mie%20de%20grippe%20H1N1

There were several serious outbreaks of influenza in the 20th century. The most famous(and the most lethal) was the Spanish Flu pandemic(type A influenza, H1N1 strain), which lasted from 1918 to 1919 and is believed to have killed more people in total than World War I. 2, record 2, English, - H1N1%20strain

strain : a group of organisms of the same species, having distinctive characteristics but not usually considered a separate breed or variety. 3, record 2, English, - H1N1%20strain

Different circulating influenza A viruses are identified by referring to two signature proteins on their surfaces. One is hemagglutinin(HA), which has at least 15 known variants, or subtypes. Another is neurominidase(NA), which has nine subtypes. Exposure to these proteins produces distinctive antibodies in a host, thus the 1918 strain was the first to be named, "H1N1", based on antibodies found in the bloodstream of pandemic survivors. 4, record 2, English, - H1N1%20strain

Les différents virus de la grippe de type A sont identifiés par deux protéines spécifiques présentes à leur surface. L'une d'elles est l'hémagglutinine, HA, dont au moins 15 variants, ou sous-types sont connus, de H1 à H15. L'autre est la neuraminidase, NA, qui comprend neuf sous-types, de N1 à N9. Exposé à ces protéines, le système immunitaire des personnes infectées produit des anticorps spécifiques : la souche de 1918, par exemple, a été nommée H1N1. 2, record 2, French, - souche%20H1N1

[La] denominada "gripe española" y producida por la cepa H1N1, fue la más importante por su tasa de mortalidad. Solo en los Estados Unidos murieron más de 500.000 personas y se estiman más de 50 millones en el resto del mundo. La cepa H1N1 fue reintroducida en 1977 y aún está en circulación. 2, record 2, Spanish, - cepa%20H1N1
