100% H1N1 Tamiflu Resistance in Austria
Recombinomics Commentary 14:24
December 5, 2008

Limited antiviral resistance data are available from only three countries (Austria, England and Norway). Most (18/19) of the A(H1N1) viruses analyzed to date are oseltamivir-resistant

The above comments from the EISS report for Europe indicate H1N1 Tamiflu resistance in Austria is 100%.  The previous report on resistance in Europe was 11/12 from England and Norway, so 7/7 of the most recent tests, which include 1-7 samples from Austria, have H274Y.

Some of the 7 recent samples could have come from England, since the resistance totals in England were last reported at 17/18, in addition to 2/2 in Scotland.  Similar levels have been reported in North America (1/1 in Canada and 20/21 in the United States), confirming that H1N1 Tamiflu resistance in North America and Europe is at or near 100%.
