50 deaths in Spain by flu


The latest official epidemiological reports show that we have passed the European threshold of this disease, established in 40 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. In recent weeks has been an increase in the incidence registering more than 90Hay who noted that the deaths that have occurred for influenza A in our country have been linked in all cases to serious pathologies already patients suffering previously. And the truth is that the flu virus is behaving similarly to the other year, only that this time, it has started before, hence the number of affected expired already to other years in the month of January.According to analysts, the flu has begun to circulate through the North of Spain and has spread quickly to the center of the country, and from there to other points. Everything points to the cold that made in the last week of 2013, as mainly responsible for its early onset. Now, experts cross the fingers so that in February, month which, by tradition, has become a symbol of this disease, the development of the virus is softer and thus, the total sum of affected, and deaths from flu complete adjusting to the of other periods.At the moment, and forecasts, doctors recommend to increase the amount of hospital resources to avoid the overload of patients.
