WHO meeting of experts to consider whether this issue is a disease that is fairly serious, or simply issue a travel warning.

"Maybe it is too late to prevent this widespread problem," said a bird flu specialist with the U.S..

In Mexico City alone, hundreds of thousands of tourists come and go every day. "You have to believe that the transmission of this virus have been developed," said Osterholm.

There is no vaccine, which may, in particular protection against the human influenza pig. Also, it is not known how many doses of flu vaccine could protect people against the risk of death.

"Influenza vaccines genetic match to the fight against swine influenza virus is currently being developed by the Center for Disease in the U.S.," said Dr. Richard Besser.

Scientists have long been fears that the virus becomes a pandemic influenza death worldwide. A new virus may develop differently, the infection of pigs, people or birds. Maintenance butterflyx can spread quickly, because people naturally do not have a defense to prevent the body.

Experts fear the avian flu does not attack the disease is the last time. "We saw a pig influenza in humans for many years. In many cases, it comes from direct contact with pigs. But this time seems different," said Dr. Arnold monto, influenza experts from the University of Michigan.

Poor sleep may increase the risk of diabetes

Sleep well at night to help the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The researchers found that sleeping less than 6 hours per night increases the risk.

People who sleep less than 6 hours during the working day over a period of one year showed almost 5 times the risk of diabetes compared with the average sleep 6 to 8 pm, according to research presented at the American Heart Association.

Lisa Rafalason, an assistant professor at the University of Buffalo New York says that this study supports the evidence that links lack of sleep to health problems. Sleep should be studied in a clinical visits from the health examination for life.

Studies on the 1455 reported sleep habits, comparing the fasting glucose level over a period of 6 years. The result is adjusted to the age, body mass index, glucose and insulin levels, heart rate, blood pressure and family history of symptoms of depression.

Study showed no difference in fasting glucose level or the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in people with an average of 6-8 hours sleep per night and their sleep on average more than 8 hours. Rafalson said that the results are expected to stimulate additional research on the very complex area of sleep and disease.

Coffee and Diabetes Risk

Harvard School of Public Health Long-Term Coffee Consumption in Relation
Reduced risk for type 2 diabetes
Boston, MA? A study by researchers at the Harvard School of Public
Health and Brigham and Women's Hospital has found that the participants
who regularly drank coffee significantly reduced the risk of starting
type 2 diabetes, compared with non-coffee drinking participants. Of
findings appear in the Jan 6, 2004 from the annals of the Interior
Medicine.

More than 125,000 study participants who were free of diabetes, cancer,
Cardiovascular disease and the beginning of the study were selected from
go in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study and the Brigham and
Women's Hospital-based Nurses Health Study. Approximately 41,934 people were
kept from 1986 to 1998 and 84,276 women from1980 to 1998 by the Food --
frequency questionnaires every two to four years for the assessment of their registration

During the span of the study, 1333 new cases of type 2 diabetes were
diagnosed in 4085 between men and women participants. The researchers
also found that men who drank more than six cups
Caffeinated coffee per day to their risk of type 2 diabetes
more than 50 percent compared with men in the study who did not drink
brown. Among women who drank six or more cups per day
reduced risk of type 2 diabetes by nearly 30 percent. These effects
were not living by factors such as smoking, physical activity,
or obesity. Decaffeinated coffee is good, but its effects
were weaker than regular coffee.

The researchers note that caffeine, the best known ingredient in regular
coffee, is known for its blood sugar and increasing energy expenditure
the short term, but long-term effects are not well understood.
Coffee (regular and decaffeinated) has as many antioxidants
chlorogenic acid (one of the compounds responsible for coffee
flavor) and magnesium. These ingredients can improve
sensitivity to insulin and may contribute to reducing the risk of type 2
diabetes.
