Another Dane, affected by H1N1
Published 05.06.09
A stay in Argentina has probably resulted in influenza H1N1 on a Danish traveler. The person has ordinary flu symptoms and is in solitary confinement, according to Health.
Board assesses still not that people generally have reason for concern. Outside of Mexico, the disease has so far proven to be generally milder course compared with conventional winter flu. And it is not surprising that there will be found another instance, says Head prevention Else Smith.
- We have known about the new virus for many weeks and seen it spread to, and in many countries. So it is expected that there will be more cases in Denmark. It is very difficult to avoid infection brought from the outside world and to do so. The new cases therefore do not alter our preparedness, "says Else Smith.
The infection has come to Denmark with Air France AF 2350 from Paris, which landed in Kastrup, 2 June kl. 14.45. Passengers who have sat at number 13-17 on the aircraft, please contact the Health on tel 7022 0268. They will be offered preventive treatment by their own doctor or physician office.
The other passengers do not need to take special precautions. If they have flu symptoms with fever over 38 ?, they should contact their doctor informs Health.
