| Modi's virtually ok | 06-NOV-09 |
|
| Gujarat Chief Minister has been cured of his swine flu, virtually that is. The chief minister who was laid low by the flu was to address a conference. He’s decided to address the event through a video conferernce — ironically, it is a pharmaceutical industry event. Meanwhile, the virus has spread and the latest to get it is the state’s principal secretary, Ravi Saxena. The battery of bureaucrats and officials who travelled with Modi, meanwhile, continues to be under surveillance and monitoring. |

| If winter comes... | 05-NOV-09 |
|
| With close to 500 officially confirmed deaths reported in India due to H1N1 influenza, popularly still referred to as “swine flu”, and over 6,000 globally in the last six months, the flu pandemic seems far from under control. The danger of the virus turning even more virulent has, in fact, risen manifold with the onset of winter. A recent World Health Organisation (WHO) report has already indicated a spurt in influenza cases in the temperate zone countries where winter has set in early. With international travel picking up, thanks to an improvement in the global economic situation, and the weather having already changed in India, it is only a matter of time before H1N1 cases begin to surge here as well. The H1N1 virus is already rampant in the country and people coming from abroad are adding to this infection load owing largely to lax screening of incoming passengers at the country’s 22 international airports. |
