AMMAN: Jordan has seen a spurt in the number of swine flu "H1N1" cases after 66 people were confirmed positive in the Kingdom.

Jordanian daily (Al-Dustour) quoted Jordanian Minister of Health Abdul Latif Wreikat as saying that the cases registered up until Monday night rose to 66 cases after 11 new cases were confirmed positive.

A 26-year-old man died in hospital on Saturday after contracting H1N1 flu, according to the Ministry of Health.

In a statement sent to The Jordan Times, Minister Wreikat said the man had been admitted to Princess Basma Hospital in Irbid suffering from symptoms of pneumonia. After examining the patient, doctors there diagnosed him with H1N1 flu.

According to Wreikat, the patient?s medical condition was critical because he also had cardiovascular disease.

Health Ministry Spokesperson Hatem Azruie told The Jordan Times over the phone that the ministry would launch a hotline on Monday for anyone who suspects they may have H1N1 to call in and report their symptoms.

Last Thursday, Wreikat said 49 cases of H1N1 flu had been registered in the Kingdom since the beginning of winter.

The H1N1 virus first emerged in Jordan in June 2009 with 3,049 cases and 16 related fatalities registered in the country that year.

The strain re-emerged in December 2010, causing 289 illnesses and 17 related deaths. (QNA)

AMMAN (Petra) -- 95 cases of infection with the H1N1 virus have been reported in Jordan in the winter season so far, Health Minister Abdullatif Wreikat announced on Saturday.

Wreitak said in a press conference that the cases of seasonal flu, including Swine Flu, remain in their average levels for this time of year.

The Minister noted that no new fatalities from the virus have been reported in Jordan, since the two deaths announced earlier in the month.

Last week, a woman in her forties died at an Amman hospital becoming the second victim of an outbreak of Swine Flu in the Kingdom.

The woman was last Sunday admitted to a private hospital for a lung infection and lab tests revealed that she had contracted the H1N1 virus.

The minister said medical staff initially suspected she had H1N1 and was given the necessary treatment but she died on Friday.

He said 75 H1N1 cases had been reported countrywide. A man in his twenties died on January 6 of multiple congenital disorders after he was infected with the deadly virus.

Wreikat said that H1N1 is a seasonal flu but assured that vaccines and necessary medicines are available for treatment, calling on the public to immediately report to medical centres or hospitals in case of any signs of severe flu.

He said early detection of the virus would prevent complications.
