Introduction: Antiviral resistance has been reported in seasonal influenza A viruses and avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses
in Viet Nam, raising concerns about the efficacy of treatment.
Methods: We analysed specimens from two sources during the period 2009–2012: influenza-positive samples from
influenza-like illness patients at sentinel clinics in northern Viet Nam and isolates from patients with confirmed A(H5N1)
infections. Pyrosequencing was used to detect mutations: H275Y [for A(H1N1) and A(H5N1)], E119V [for A(H3N2)]
and I117V [for A(H5N1)]. A neuraminidase inhibition assay was used to determine the Inhibitory Concentration 50 (IC )
values for all influenza A and B isolates.
Results: There were 341 influenza A positive samples identified; influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 was identified most frequently
(n = 215). In 2009, oseltamivir resistance was observed in 100% (19 of 19) of seasonal A(H1N1) isolates and 1.4%
(3/215) of A(H1N1)pdm09 isolates. This H275Y mutation was not found in influenza subtypes A(H5N1) or A(H3N2)
isolates.
Discussion: In Viet Nam, seasonal and A(H5N1) influenza vaccines are not currently available; thus, effective treatment is
required. The presence of oseltamivir-resistant viruses is therefore a concern. Active surveillance for oseltamivir resistance
among influenza viruses circulating in Viet Nam should be continued.
Influenza infection causes annual epidemics throughout for the treatment of influenza infections,4,5 yet antiviral

However, an oseltamivir-resistant A(H5N1) surveillance system did not report periodic antiviral use, virus was reported in human isolates in 2005, and and therefore it is difficult to assume that any resistance the emergence of mutations associated with reducing found in our study was due to transmitted resistance. susceptibility (I117V) to oseltamivir was also determined Active surveillance in the future should be expanded to among A(H5N1) isolates from both human and poultry include data on oseltamivir use in hospitals and private in 2009–2010.
