Six killed by A (H1N1) flu last week


The influenza A (H1N1) has killed six people, including a baby, in the country last week. Most of them have chronic illnesses.
Of the six flu victims, two died partly because they received the much-needed medicine Oseltamivir rather too late.
"Provincial governors in their areas are now assigned to look into these cases," Public Health Minister Jurin Laksanawisit said Monday.
He said one of these two patients was a one-month-old baby boy in Chon Buri while the other was a 60yearold man in Bangkok.
