Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) menganggarkan lima juta atau 20 peratus rakyat negara ini berisiko dijangkiti virus influenza A (H1N1) jika orang ramai tidak mengambil serius langkah pencegahan bagi menghalang penularan virus itu. Menteri Kesihatan, Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai berkata, statistik itu berdasarkan kajian terperinci WHO mengenai impak penularan luar biasa H1N1 terhadap sesebuah negara jika ancaman virus tersebut tidak ditangani secara berkesan dan menyeluruh.
Tiong Lai berkata, penularan H1N1 dijangka berlarutan dalam tempoh satu atau setahun setengah lagi dan ia diramal menular lebih cepat pada musim tengkujuh iaitu antara bulan Oktober hingga Disember ini.Kajian WHO juga katanya, menunjukkan jumlah sebenar penduduk yang dijangkiti H1N1 adalah 20 kali ganda dengan jumlah pesakit yang direkodkan menerima rawatan akibat jangkitan virus tersebut.
''Ini bermakna jika kita merekodkan 3,574 kes jangkitan H1N1 setakat ini, jumlah sebenar yang dijangkiti adalah sekitar 70,000 orang. Kajian WHO ini mungkin tidak begitu tepat tapi kita kena beri perhatian sewajarnya," jelasnya.

Meanwhile, the state government (Sarawak) has been urged not to wait for federal funds to build its own test lab for Influenza A (H1N1) as it has the financial capacity to do so, said Democratic Action Party (DAP) state secretary Chong Chieng Jen.
The opposition leader said if the state government could spend a few hundred million ringgit to build a new State Legislative Assembly complex and several million ringgit for city landscaping purposes, surely it can finance the test lab and have the facility done immediately.
“It has been reported in the media quoting Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Dr George Chan that a special bio-security lab would cost several million ringgit to set up.
“The state government has got its priority all wrong,” Chong told a press conference here yesterday.
On Friday, Dr Chan said Sarawak was expecting a firmer answer from the federal government whether it would get its own test lab for H1N1 by next week.
At the moment, swab specimens from H1N1 suspected patients have to be sent to either the Institute of Medical Research in Kuala Lumpur or Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kota Kinabalu.
Normally, results would be known in 24 hours, but because of the number of backlog cases, results now could take longer. The H1N1 death toll in the country hit 51 on Friday with four cases from Sarawak.
Chong, who is Bandar Kuching MP and Kota Sentosa assemblyman, said the government did not seem to be serious about the H1N1 pandemic.
If the government was serious, he said, it would have gotten the lab test facility done the moment the state registered its first case two months ago.
“Sarawak has an income of more than RM3 billion annually and the highest revenue among all the states in Malaysia.
“Don’t sit and wait for the federal government to approve the facility when it only cost a few million ringgit,” he said, adding that the pandemic might be over by the time the federal government approved the project.
