Re: Situation in India July 26 2010 to date.
The Consolidated Status update from India has not yet been issued for this week. When it is, I will revise this report with updates. However, since the most active pandemic outbreak right now is occurring in India, I feel it necessary to go forward with what information is available.
During the week from July 26th to Aug 1st at least 541 people tested positive for H1N1. Nationally, at least 57 fatalities were registered bringing the official total to 1,763 (my current total is 1,796). An additional 5 media reported fatalities from Maharashtra are awaiting confirmation. Little or no media information came from Tamil Nadu or Kerala this week.
This is the most fatalities in a given week since January. 38 fatalities were recorded in Maharashtra. The largest single week toll in the first wave for that state was 25 recorded in the week ending September 18 2009. Case numbers in West Bengal, Gujarat, Delhi, Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra appear to be rising.
