Maharashtra Flu reports April 1 2011 to Dec 2012. 131 fatalities

Maharashtra Pune Influenza A H1N1 05/03/12 Under
Surveillance
A total of 515 cases and 24 deaths have been reported from Maharashtra (upto
13th May, 2012) due to Influenza A H1N1. From 14th May to 20th May 2012,
further 32 cases and 2 deaths occurred in the state. These new cases and deaths
were reported from Mumbai, Nagpur, Nashik, Parbhani, Pune and Thane
districts.
Comment - I'm not sure of the start date for this count, but it is unlikely to include the 3 deaths from 2011 (top of this thread). So 26 deaths in 2012 is implied which is one more than the totals given in the State reports. - Ro
