    This disease is commonly known as elephantiasis.

    The WHO campaign was launched in nineteen-ninety-seven.

    They were living in unpopulated areas of the country.

    Five patients died in China's Guangdong province.

    The spread of lymphatic filariasis dropped by more than ninety-five percent.

    The illness is caused by an avian flu virus.

    More than one-hundred-twenty-million people have been infected with lymphatic filariasis.

    Six people became ill with pneumonia.

    More than 300 people were diagnosed with flu-like symptoms and atypical pneumonia.

    Hong Kong's Department of Health ruled out the possibility.





    Jim Kazura is a propessor of Case Western Reserve University.

    Elephantiasis is the leading cause of permanent or long-term disabilities.

    Dr. K.Y. Yeun is the head of the Hong Kong University Microbiology Department.





    A parasite organism causes the disease.

    Jim Kazura of Case Western Reserve University led the research.

    Signs of the disease include huge enlargement of the legs, arms, breasts and reproductive organs.

    The treatment reduced the enlargement of the arms, legs and reproductive organs.

    Researchers have discovered a successful new treatment.

    Atypical pneumonia baffles Asian health officials.

    A total of 43 people have symptoms of a mysterious flu-like illness.

    The agent is most likely an airborne virus.

    Health authorities have not identified the agent.

    A fourth outbreak may have struck Singapore.





    World Health Organization officials sent out a worldwide alert this week.

    Doctor Kazura and his team of researchers tested the drug in Papua New Guinea.

    Scientists have tested the drug in the laboratory.

    The mystery pneumonia is called "atypical" because of its fast onset and severe symptoms.

    The study’s results were published in December in the New England Journal of Medicine.

    Five more people were diagnosed with atypical pneumonia on Friday.

    The man was first hospitalized in Hanoi with flu-like symptoms.





    The flu-like illness is affecting mainly the young imuno-competent individual in the healthcare setting.

    It would prevent the development of new parasites in either humans or mosquitoes.

    The illness does not strike those with compromised immune systems.

    Most of the victims are in poor nations in Africa, Asia, South America and islands of the Pacific Ocean.

    An avian flu virus was commonly found in poultry in Southern China.

    Elephantiasis is the leading cause of permanent or long-term disabilities in developing countries.

    Cases of atypical pneumonia are still on the rise in Hong Kong, China and Vietnam.





    WHO scientists also have taken samples from Hong Kong, Mainland China and Vietnam for examination.

    Health officials hope to end the disease around the world by the year twenty-twenty.

    The Singapore government warned its residents against any unnecessary travel to Hong Kong, Hanoi and Southern China.

    The people were injected with the drug every year for four years.

    A strain of avian flu killed at least six people in Hong Kong in the late 1990s.





    Government laboratories are still trying to identify it.

    Scientists created a special medicine to kill the female parasite.

    Researchers have discovered a successful new treatment to fight lymphatic filariasis around the world.





    A Chinese-American man died in a Hong Kong hospital after returning from a trip to Vietnam.

    Two members of a Hong Kong family died from an avian flu virus after visiting China.

    Five more people were diagnosed with atypical pneumonia on Friday, bringing the number up to 29.

    They gave the drug to two-thousand-five-hundred people living in unpopulated areas of the country.

    Health authorities have not identified the agent causing the flu-like illness.

    World Health Organization officials sent out a worldwide alert this week warning hospitals of the pneumonia outbreaks.





    Infected humans can pass the parasite to mosquitoes when bitten again.

    Lymphatic filariasis is spread to humans through the bite of a mosquito insect infected with the parasite.

    The illness is caused by an avian flu virus commonly found in poultry in Southern China.





    You could have a particularly bad virus or bacteria that is causing an outbreak.

    A total of 43 people have symptoms of a mysterious flu-like illness that is spreading mostly in hospitals.

    There is something unusual happening, which is affecting mainly the young imuno-competent individual in the healthcare setting.






    He said Doctor Kazura’s research proves that.

    A top scientist says the illness is unusual.

    Hong Kong's hospital authority says the agent is most likely an airborne virus.

    Researchers began studying how the parasite is spread several years ago.

    Doctors had thought this was a permanent condition.

    Scientists found that the spread of lymphatic filariasis dropped by more than ninety-five percent.

    They also discovered that the treatment reduced the enlargement of the arms, legs and reproductive organs.

    Doctor Kazura’s research proves that a World Health Organization campaign to end lymphatic filariasis is possible.

    He added that the rates of flu and pneumonia are normal.

    The illness is unusual in that it does not strike those with compromised immune systems.

    It is unusual because hospital workers appear to be particularly vulnerable.

    WHO did not say if the Hanoi and Hong Kong outbreaks were related.



    None



    Hong Kong's Department of Health ruled out the possibility that the illness is caused by an avian flu virus commonly found in poultry in Southern China.






    There are similar hospital outbreaks in Vietnam and mainland China.





    Earlier this year, two members of a Hong Kong family died from an avian flu virus after visiting China.

    Earlier in the week, a Chinese-American man died in a Hong Kong hospital after returning from a trip to Vietnam.

    In the late 1990s, a strain of avian flu killed at least six people in Hong Kong.

    According to reports, more than 20 health workers in the Hanoi hospital subsequently became ill.

    Once infected, humans can pass the parasite back to mosquitoes when bitten again.

    To test this theory, scientists created a special medicine to kill the female parasite.

    Killing the adult female parasite, it would prevent the development of new parasites in either humans or mosquitoes.

    Adding to the mystery of the fast-spreading illness, there are similar hospital outbreaks in Vietnam and mainland China.

    If there is a particularly bad virus or bacteria that is causing an outbreak, usually the very young, very old and the very sick suffer first.

    On Friday, after six people including two hospital staff became ill with pneumonia, the Singapore government warned its residents against any unnecessary travel to Hong Kong, Hanoi and Southern China.





    Jim Kazura of Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio led the research.

    But its effectiveness on humans has not been confirmed until now.

    A separate opinion by an independent doctor was also included.

    More than one-hundred-twenty-million people in eighty countries have been infected with lymphatic filariasis.

    A total of 43 people in Hong Kong have symptoms of a mysterious flu-like illness that is spreading mostly in hospitals.

    More than 300 people in China's Guangdong province were diagnosed with flu-like symptoms and atypical pneumonia.

    The rates of flu and pneumonia in the general public are normal.

    More than 20 health workers in the Hanoi hospital subsequently became ill.

    A top scientist at Hong Kong University says the illness is unusual.

    Six people including two hospital staff became ill with pneumonia.

    A World Health Organization campaign to end lymphatic filariasis is possible.

    The man traveling between Vietnam and Hong Kong spread the illness.





    Cases of atypical pneumonia are still on the rise in Hong Kong, China and Vietnam, and a fourth outbreak may have struck Singapore.

    The illness does not strike those with compromised immune systems but healthy adults.

    Hong Kong's hospital authority says the agent is most likely an airborne virus, but government laboratories are still trying to identify it.

    Health authorities have not identified the agent causing the flu-like illness, but say it is unusual because hospital workers appear to be particularly vulnerable.

    WHO did not say if the Hanoi and Hong Kong outbreaks were related or if the man traveling between Vietnam and Hong Kong spread the illness.
