In Lithuania, shying away from declaring the exact number of victims of swine influenza
Despite the fact that more 30 November Lithuanian doctors declared that Lithuania is a new type of influenza A (H1N1), six people died, several days later, virologists officially reduced the number of deaths.
According to a REGNUM News Today, 2 December, the Ministry of Health of Lithuania, it was reported today, the sixth death.
But still at least two deaths were not included in the list of victims of swine flu. In the Lithuanian media reported that the Lithuanian doctors, not wanting to aggravate the statistics of deaths, recorded deaths from the disease, as deaths from pneumonia.
Formally, this is not a lie, because the influenza virus A (H1N1) often causes significant inflammation of the lungs.
