Via The Times of India :
" MUMBAI: The wave of swine flu, which hit the country last year, may return to strike the city, data suggests. There have been three deaths in the last 15 days and four people tested positive last week, of whom two are still in the isolation ward in Kasturba Hospital.
While Nazia Naushad (27), a resident of Alibaug died on May 21 in Sion Hospital, one-year-old Dhairya Bhatt, a resident of Mulund, died in Kasturba Hospital on May 28. Asiya Sheikh, (24), who delivered a pair of twins on June 2, succumbed to the virus on June 5.
Civic officials maintain there is no reason for Mumbaikars to panic, but fear the virus may become more active in the monsoon. “The dip in temperature is one reason why the swine flu wave hit India last year."
