Two Swine Flu Cases In Odisha
Odisha reported two cases of swine flu on Friday after more than two years, a health department official said.
The two - a 38-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman who tested positive for the H1N1 virus - are undergoing treatment at a private hospital here, state public health director Niranjan Mishra said.
The two cases were confirmed after their samples tested positive for H1N1 and their conditions were stated to be out of danger by the hospital, he told reporters.
"The state usually witnesses two peaks of the swine flu disease - one before the monsoon and another in winter," Mishra said.
The official said the government is fully prepared to tackle the situation.
Also known as swine influenza, respiratory disease is caused by the H1N1 virus. It causes nasal secretions, cough, decreased appetite and restless behaviour.
The World Health Organisation declared a swine flu pandemic from June 2009 to August 2010. However, it continues to circulate as a seasonal virus worldwide.
