Swine flu update – Current situation

According to the report from WHO (15 May 2009), 34 countries have officially reported 7520 cases of influenza A(H1N1) infection. There are 65 deaths reported worldwide. If the infection spreads in a sustained manner in countries outside North America, the organization would raise the Alert Level to 6 for a full-blown pandemic.

It is reported that India will exercise a “go hard, go early” policy on the use of anti-virals in case it detects a person infected with the deadly H1N1 influenza virus.
