10 new H1N1 cases reported

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The fever situation in the state continues to be serious with 10 new H1N1 cases being identified on Wednesday. While five new cases were reported from Kozhikode, Malappuram had registered three, and Wayanad and Kannur one each.

Thiruvananthapuram, Kollam and Thrissur have been classified as sensitive districts by the crisis management team monitoring the situation.

"The crisis management team has found that more number of cases are being reported from these three districts. The district administrations in these districts have been alerted," chief minister Oommen Chandy told reporters after the cabinet meeting.

There will be district-level review meetings on Saturday to review the situation, and a special cabinet meeting on Monday will take stock of the situation.

The CM said there was no need for panic as the situation was under control. Referring to the visit by a Central team last year, which had alerted about a possible fever outbreak this year, Chandy said that was why the government had taken all precautions much earlier.

Chandy also denied the reports that the government was hiding statistics on fever cases for not revealing the actual situation. "I haven't come across such a complaint. I will see that statistics are provided to the media without fail from today," he said.
