Swine flu has claimed another life in the city with a 30-year-old man succumbing at a hospital yesterday, taking the toll this year to eight.
The victim hailed from Khargon and was admitted to Rajshree Hospital on February 28. He died last evening, said Dr G L Sodhi, District Health Officer.

Eight more patients were being treated in various hospitals in the city, Sodhi said, adding the condition of seven of them was very critical.
