Maharashtra Influenza 2015, 905 fatalities

Unseasonal rain allows swine flu virus to return
? By FPJ Bureau | Apr 17, 2015 12:30 am
Two deaths were reported in the city, which also saw 26 new cases

Mumbai : Just when medical experts thought that swine flu was on its way out, the city witnessed two more deaths and 26 new cases in past three days. City experts claim this is owing to unseasonal rains and fluctuating temperatures which have hit the City and the State. Following rain, hospitals have witnessed a 20 per cent rise in patients turning up with flu-like symptoms.

One of the deaths was that of a 5-month pregnant woman from Nashik. The 22-year-old woman was first getting treated on out-patient department basis (OPD) from Lotus Hospital in Nashik. But she was subsequently shifted to KEM Hospital in Parel on April 12 and was a known case of aplastic anemia. Owing to her damaged cells and bone marrow, her condition worsened and she breathed her last on Wednesday due to type 1 respiratory failure in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The civic officials informed that she suffered from a miscarriage due to intra-uterine fetal death.

Another death was of a 26-year-old man from Ghatkopar. He was admitted to KEM Hospital on April 5; however he was not associated with any co-morbidities.

Payal Gwalani,TNN | May 4, 2015, 03.29 AM IST

NAGPUR: Since January 1, 120 lives have been lost throughout Nagpur circle of the state's public health department to swine flu. The current wave has finally ebbed, as there have been no new patients in more than a month.

It was an unusual season of the disease, with several relatively healthy and young people falling prey to the disease. Of the 594 people who tested positive for the disease, 120 have died as per the records of Deputy Directorate of Health Services (DDHS). This makes the death rate of swine flu over the last four months to be a little over 20%. TOI looks back at the issues that troubled doctors as panic and fear mongering took its toll of the masses.
