REPORTS:

Dec 11, 2009: CDC, In the News: Deaths related to 2009 H1N1 & American Indians and Alaskan Natives

WA Dept of Health: April - June 2009 H1N1 Pandemic Response: After Action Report

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT ON U.S. PREPARATIONS FOR 2009-H1N1 INFLUENZA released Aug 25th.

The Report notes (p.14):

"Certain populations appear to be at elevated risk of severe outcomes, including Native American groups. American Indians and Alaska natives historically are at high risk for severe respiratory infections; while it is unclear what toll they have suffered from 2009-H1N1, a cluster of severe 2009-H1N1 disease among First Nation people in remote Manitoba, Canada, suggests that these groups may be at high risk. Cases of 2009-H1N1 virus infection in these clusters have had rapidly progressive, diffuse, lower airway disease (compared to seasonal influenza, which more commonly involves the upper airway), resulting in development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and prolonged ICU admission."
