Swine Flu (H1N1) in India -The death toll in India due to the disease

The first swine flu case in India was reported from Hyderabad while the first death due to swine flu was reported from New Delhi. A 14-year school girl infected by the virus died in Delhi. There had been many reports of swine from many parts of the country. The death toll in India due to the disease has now increased to 10. One of the reasons of the high death toll is because of late diagnosis. The major symptoms of the disease are high temperature, Cough, Head ache and muscle pain. The symptoms are similar to any other common flu.

The India Government has asked all Indians to take necessary precaution like consulting a doctor if they face any flu like symptoms. There are high chances that flu will spread from one person to another. The flu is similar to any seasonal flu and can be treated easily if it is diagnosed on time. The monsoon season can increase the spreading rate on flu in India. The schools in Pune and New Delhi have been shut down due to the disease. The vaccination for the disease has been discovered and it will hopefully reduce the disease and remove the disease from the whole mankind.

I think the Swine Flu is now a global problem. I've been hearing cases of swine flu in Africa lately especially in Ghana and Nigeria. Just two days ago two swine flu patients were discharged from a hospital in Ghana. According to scientists, the mutated form of the virus may return during the coming flu season and I just pray that scientist will come out with something good. If not, developing countries such as India, countries in Latin America and Africa will suffer the most.
