Trata-se de um estudo exploratório, de caráter descritivo e com abordagem qualitativa que objetivou analisar o conhecimento dos profissionais de saúde sobre a Gripe A H1N1 e a vacina. Os dados foram obtidos através de uma entrevista semiestruturada, gravada com 13 profissionais de uma Estratégia Saúde da Família, situada ao norte de Minas Gerais e analisados mediante a análise temática de conteúdo. A partir do discurso dos entrevistados emergiram as seguintes categorias: “Conhecimento sobre a Influenza A H1N1”; “Meios de prevenção”; “Mitos sobre a vacina e sobre a doença” e “Obtenção de informações”. Observou-se que os enfermeiros possuem conhecimento mais estabelecido em relação às outras categorias de profissionais. Os técnicos em enfermagem e agentes comunitários de saúde (ACS) demonstraram através dos relatos pouca ou nenhuma informação sobre a Gripe A H1N1 e a vacina. Os ACS têm um maior vínculo com a população e fazem referência a existência de mitos sobre a vacina e acreditam que os efeitos colaterais são a principal justificativa para a não adesão à vacina.Ocorre confusão da Gripe A H1N1 com outras doenças. A principal fonte de informações para os enfermeiros é o Ministério da Saúde e para técnicos e ACS são televisão, os enfermeiros da unidade e o convívio social. A educação permanente se constitui uma ferramenta para o enfermeiro no sentido transmitir informações básicas relacionadas à Influenza A (H1N1) aos profissionais que não compreendem corretamente as orientações preconizadas pelo Ministério da Saúde.   This is an exploratory, descriptive and qualitative approach aimed at analyzing the knowledge of health professionals about the H1N1 flu and vaccine. Data were collected through a semi-structured interview, recorded with 13 professionals from a Family Health Strategy, situated north of Minas Gerais and analyzed by thematic content analysis. From the speech of the respondents the following categories emerged: "Knowledge about the Influenza A H1N1" "Means of prevention", "Myths about the vaccine and the disease" and "Getting information". It was observed that the category of nurses have greater knowledge in relation to other categories of professionals. The nursing technicians and community health agents (CHA) demonstrated through reports little or no information about the H1N1 flu and vaccine. The ACS have a stronger connection with the community and refers to the existence of myths about the vaccine and believe that the side effects of the main reasons for non-adherence to the vaccine. The main source of information for nurses is the Ministry of Health for technical and ACS are television, nurses and social life of the unit. Continuing education constitutes a powerful tool for nurses in order to transmit the basic information related to Influenza A (H1N1) to professionals who misunderstand the guidelines recommended by the Ministry of Health.

In order to study the dynamics of the incidence of influenza and ARI in the cities of Russia and the impact of the demographic composition of its population we evaluated changes in the age structure of the population from 1986 to 2014. Considerable changes in the 28 years dynamics of the total incidence of influenza and ARI revealed. The highest incidence rate from 1969 to 1990 gave way to decrease in the incidence from 1991 to 2008 in all cities, especially in megacities, and to increase during the influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 circulation. Reduction of the differences in the incidence of influenza and ARI in cities with different population is noted. From 1969 to 2014 there have been significant changes in the dynamics of influenza and ARI incidence: reduction in the incidence from 1991 in all the cities, especially in megacities, increasing of incidence during the influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 circulation years from 2009 to 2014, and reducing the difference in the incidence of influenza and ARI in cities with varying populations. In most cities, the incidence remained high throughout the observation period. In 2009 - 2014 the incidence has become higher in the Barnaul, Irkutsk, Yakutsk, and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, and lower in the Krasnodar and Ulan-Ude compared with the periods from 1986 to 2008. The results from correlation analysis reveal that incidence of influenza and ARI is significantly positively correlated with the age and number of children's groups, more pronounced in the younger age groups, at 95% confidence level. Children 0 - 2 years revealed significant strong correlation in 27 of the 34 cities, the average correlation coefficient, R = 0.75, children 3 - 6 years - a strong (in 16 cities) and the average (in 16 cities), R = 0.63, children 7 - 14 years - a strong (in 9 cities) and average (in 15 cities), R = 0.53, in adults found an association of moderate strength only in 8 cities R = 0.48.

Im Herbst/Winter 2009/2010 wurden etwa 30,8 Mio. Menschen in der Europäischen Union mit Pandemrix® gegen die pandemische Influenza A/H1N1/v geimpft. Der von GlaxoSmithKline produzierte Impfstoff war im September 2009 von der Europäischen Kommission als Pandemieimpfstoff zugelassen worden. Im Sommer 2010 wurde erstmals über Fälle einer Narkolepsie bei Kindern und Jugendlichen nach Impfung mit Pandemrix® in Schweden und Finnland berichtet.
