Posted by admin in Untagged 

An interactive talk on ‘Swine Flu’ was organized by P.G Department of zoology under the aegis of Kashyap Biological Society at D.A.V College Jalandhar on 15th sep 09. The valuable talk was delivered by District Epidemiologist Dr. T.P Singh, from Civil Hospital. This eye opening talk was attended by members of faculty and students of the College. Various aspects regarding structure, lifecycle, incubation periods, do’s and don’ts, were commented upon. The enlightening talk was followed by an interactive session in which students cleared their doubts and misconceptions regarding this disease and manifestation. Dr. T.P Singh Sandhu was catagoric instating that prevention is best cure and panic driven uptake of medicine by fit human, can only empower the virus to become immune to the drug. This would further complicate the problem as only one drug “Tami Flu” is available whereas remaining one still be obtained from developed countries.
