H1N1 mutations emerging around the world – Tamiflu-resistant strain of H1N1 virus resists antivirals
More than 50 isolated cases of H1N1 mutation that results in resistance to antiviral drugs like Tamiflu have been identified around the world since the outbreak of the Novel A H1N1 virus, also known as Swine Flu. These cases have been carefully monitored, but have not appeared to spread beyond the original host. Now, however, a cluster of patients with the H1N1 mutation have been identified in a single hospital.
