ontario health insurance plan - The Ontario Health Insurance Plan ( OHIP ) is the government-run health plan for the Canadian province of Ontario.
Every Ontario resident is entitled to free access to emergency and preventive medical care under OHIP. Ontario residents may go to a participating doctor—essentially every doctor practicing in the province—any time they wish and the services are billed through OHIP to the government. It does not cover such areas as prescription drugs or dental care, but did cover one eye examination every two years and limited chiropractic and physical therapy services, until most eye exams and all chiropractic and physical therapy were "delisted," or removed from coverage, by the Liberal government of Dalton McGuinty in May 2004. Provision continues to be made for free coverage to minors. OHIP is funded by taxes paid by the residents of Ontario and by transfer payments from the federal government.

This up-to-date compendium of major documents federal government and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services provides essential information on bird flu (avian flu) and the risk of pandemic influenza.

An influenza pandemic is a global outbreak of disease that occurs when a new influenza A virus appears or emerges in the human population, causes serious illness, and then spreads easily from person to person worldwide. Pandemics are different from seasonal outbreaks or epidemics of influenza. Seasonal outbreaks are caused by subtypes of influenza viruses that are already in existence among people, whereas pandemic outbreaks are caused by new subtypes or by subtypes that have never circulated among people or that have not circulated among people for a long time. Past influenza pandemics have led to high levels of illness, death, social disruption, and economic loss. There are many different subtypes of Influenza or flu viruses. The subtypes differ based upon certain proteins on the surface of the virus (the hemagglutinin or HA protein and the neuraminidase or the NA protein). Pandemic viruses appear (or emerge) as a result of a process called "antigenic shift, which causes an abrupt or sudden, major change in influenza A viruses. These changes are caused by new combinations of the HA and/or NA proteins on the surface of the virus. This change results in a new influenza A virus subtype. The appearance of a new influenza A virus subtype is the first step toward a pandemic, but the new virus subtype also must spread easily from person to person to cause a pandemic. Once a new pandemic influenza virus emerges and spreads, it normally becomes established among people and moves around or circulates for many years as seasonal epidemics of influenza. Information in this publication is not a substitute for professional medical advice; of course, readers are urged to consult with a professional health care provider for any suspected illness.
