" SANTIAGO CITY, Isabela : The local health department revealed that eight pupils from a public elementary school have been infected with the A (H1N1) virus prompting them to raise the alarm signal over the expected increase of A (H1N1) cases, especially with the onset of the rainy season.
The positive test results of the eight pupils were relayed to the city health office by the Regional Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM) which conducted laboratory analysis on the throat swab samples taken from the pupils who complained of having contracted flu-like symptoms.
With the expected spread of the disease to other pupils in the still undisclosed school, the city government facilitated the distribution of prophylaxis medicines to those who had close contact with the eight affected pupils in addition to undergoing close medical supervision over a 10-day confinement period."
Well as for now, we don have o worry anymore because there are available vaccine in the hospitals. we just need to be careful and always follow the instructions of the government.
