H1N1 flu cases in Singapore rise to 49
Singapore’s Health Ministry (MOH) has warned that the risk of the H1N1 flu spreading in the community has risen with the detection of two new cases.
The total number now stands at 49.
All of the confirmed cases, except one who was a close contact of a confirmed case, are imported cases with a travel history.
The Ministry noted that unlike the earlier imported cases, a number of recent cases had engaged in extensive community activities such as working, shopping and participating in mass activities since their arrival in Singapore.
Some even travelled here, even though they were unwell prior to departure.
