To investigate the aetiology of the 2015 A(H1N1)pdm09 influenza outbreak in India, 1,083 nasopharyngeal swabs from suspect patients were screened for influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 in the state of Madhya Pradesh. Of 412 positive specimens, six were further characterised by phylogenetic analysis of haemagglutinin (HA) sequences revealing that they belonged to genogroup 6B. A new mutation (E164G) was observed in HA2 of two sequences. Neuraminidase genes in two of 12 isolates from fatal cases on prior oseltamivir treatment harboured the H275Y mutation.

In this paper, a mathematical model for the effect of drug therapy on the in-host dynamics of HIV is considered and analyzed. As the process of reverse transcription is highly error prone, it causes mutation of virus which results in the emergence of drug resistant virus. This is also accounted in the model and corresponding model with both drug resistant and drug sensitive viral strains is studied. We found that, if reproductive ratios for both the strains are less than one, the virus population goes to extinction. If the reproductive ratio of either strain is greater than one and the reproductive ratio of drug resistant virus is smaller than that of drug sensitive virus then both the virus strains persist and infection is not cleared. However if reproductive ratio of drug resistant virus is greater than that of drug sensitive virus then the drug resistant virus out-competes the drug sensitive virus and only drug resistant virus survives. Hence the ratio of two reproduction ratios works as invading capacity threshold value for drug resistant strain. We also noted that by increasing the effective efficacy of the drug, virus may be cleared. Numerical simulations are performed to support and elaborate the analytical findings.

ABSTRACT We extended a computer simulation of viral intracellular growth to study a parasitic antiviral strategy that diverts the viral replicase toward parasite growth. This strategy inhibited virus growth over a wide range of conditions, while minimizing host cell perturbations. Such parasitic strategies may inhibit the development of drug-resistant virus strains.
