          Two test positive for H1N1, one critical

          PUNE: A 29-year-old woman from Pandharpur and a 30-year-old man from Magarpatta tested positive for swine flu on Thursday. The condition of the woman is critical and is being treated at the isolation ICU of KEM hospital. With this, the number of infected patients in the city has gone up to 11 since April. The highest number of cases, five, was reported this month.

          "The woman has been put on ventilator since she was admitted on July 18. The man from Magarpatta is taking treatment at a private hospital in Hadapsar, and is likely to be discharged in a day," said a civic body official.

          The woman developed the symptoms from July 10. "She didn't see a doctor till July 15. As her condition worsened, she was admitted to a private hospital in Solapur. The doctors put her on ventilator as her condition further deteriorated. She was moved to the KEM hospital in a critical condition on July 18," the official said.

          KEM hospital's medical officials elaborated: "The x-ray report showed that she had developed acute respiratory distress syndrome. We suspected swine flu and sent the throat swab for testing which showed the presence of H1N1 influenza virus."

          The man from Magarpatta developed the symptoms from July 15. "He consulted a private doctor, who administered Tamiflu. But upon complain of weakness, he was admitted to the hospital on July 19. His throat swab tested positive for swine flu on Thursday."

              Viral diseases pour down on Mumbaikars

              MUMBAI: Viral infections normally send the biggest numbers to the sickbay. And this year is no different. Patients across the city have been seeking medical help, even hospitalisation, for maladies like common flu, swine flu, acute respiratory infection and asthma.

              "Considering that humidity is high during the monsoon, viruses are bound to proliferate. Hence it is not surprising that patients are landing up in hospital casualty ward or ICU with severe respiratory infections," said respiratory medicine specialist Dr Sujit Rajan from Bombay Hospital, adding that what is worrying is the spurt in asthma patients needing hospitalisation. "It is clear that these patients don't take preventive medication for asthma and land up in an emergency due to a viral infection," Rajan said.

              A doctor in KEM Hospital said, "As we are a referral centre, we get more patients than other hospitals with respiratory infections. This monsoon is no different." The doctor said the most common flu this season was Influenza A rather than swine flu. "But both flu strains can lead to chest infection that could cause pneumonia or respiratory distress," said the doctor.

              Hinduja Hospital's Dr Khusrav Bajan said that viral bronchitis was another common problem this season. "H1N1 or swine flu made an appearance two years back, it cannot lead to severe problems in people as they must have developed some amount of immunity to it. But other viruses could have mutated and are causing problems," he said.
