  • Case Descriptions from India

    I have attempted to bring the various reports of Indian cases together. The attached document contains any information on names, dates, locations, ages, treatments, and presentation of 58 fatal cases. The reporting from India is often contradictory with regard to age and name spellings.
    Please note that this is a document in progress and may contain errors.

    The latest update is at the bottom of this thread

    Re: Case Descriptions from India

    RoRo - That's outstanding! Thank you so much. I can't seem to keep track of what is happening in India. I saw a report this morning that claims the deaths total 150, but I couldn't verify it anywhere else and it didn't provide any backup data, so I didn't post it. It seems that there are a lot of duplicate media reports, so it does seem like there are more deaths than the totals posted. Whew!

    You will have your hands full with India. Let us know what would help you (regarding posting articles or sharing information on case details). We don't want to duplicate efforts and it will be a great contribution to have someone taking the lead on the India data.

      The info came mostly from articles posted by members of flutrackers, I just collated it. I will update and post as often as possible.
      Keep up the good work!

            Thanks RoRo. Your numbers are different than what some of the news articles are saying, so it's hard to figure it out. It is very difficult to track these cases, and it can get very confusing. I jotted down cases from #62-#72, and you have them all. Your #61,62 I did not have. (38 yo).

              It is confusing. My case #14 for example was reported variously as "41-year-old Balu Kulund", "Balu Kuland,33," and "Babu Genu Kuland, a school student".

              Similarities between the three led me to report it as one case.

              Also with case #16, the national update include a fatality 40/M, but newspaper reports spoke about 48yo Gautam Shelar, so I counted them as one.

              The different newspapers report different, though often overlapping fatalities, and have a variety of totals. As of 8/24, the Times of India is saying 58, but Indian Express is saying 71, so I abandoned any attempt to correlate the numbers, and just list them by report date.

              I think I may have missed a couple in the middle. I'll have to trawl more reports. Do you have a list I could peruse?

                no, but I thought I would continue on with ...what some of the newspapers are reporting. This was just a crude list developed this morning.

                  The Health Ministry has a total of 63. For the purposes of finding new cases, I will continue on with my numbers, only because it is easier for me to find new cases that way. When I do a search, the numbers are all over the place.

                      RoRo, I think you should continue on as you have been. You are comfortable with the way you have been doing it.
                      Just disregard my Case #'s and keep up the excellent work.

                        Of the 67 I have investigated, the BMC is not recording Otto Jain, and Sayeda Dorjiwala (#61,62), even though they were positive for H1N1. Also, I presume #57 the 48y.o. from Delhi who tested negative is not being counted, and Sheela's swab #58 is out for testing and has not been confirmed.
                        So that at least is consistant with the official number.

                          Re: Case Descriptions from India

                          Sadly, I have found several more fatalities #69-75 that I had missed from the 3rd week of August. One of my aims in compiling this list is to put names with the statistics. Each life is unique. Sure, people die every day, but there is something about this that galls me. That in this day and age, with all of our technology, we can do so little to save these people. I hope that someone somewhere can use this list of symptoms or failed treatments to make a difference. One thing I see again and again - they came to hospital too late for treatment.
                          The death toll currently stands at 76.

                              Thanks for all the work you are doing here and elsewhere.

                              Here's what I have on Anil;
                              Another fatality from the Maharashtra was reported when 26-year-old Anil Sheshrao Chavan succumbed to the disease at a hospital in Jalna in Marathwada region.
                              http://www.indianexpress.com/news/si...hes-69/505693/ 26-year-old Anil Sheshrao Chavan also died yesterday of swine flu at the Mission Hospital in Jalna in Maharashtra's Marathwada region, Health Officer B L Survase said.
                              Anil Chavan (40), a contractor, died at the Mission Hospital at Jalna on August 22, after ?shuttling between several hospitals, including the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in Aurangabad, for treatment of respiratory disorder, infection, cold, cough and fever,? said Jalna civil surgeon B L Surwase.
                              Chavan had been suffering from respiratory disorder for the last one-and-a-half months. Around 3 pm on August 19, he was admitted to the civil hospital where his throat swab was obtained and sent for examination. He was referred to the GMCH, Aurangabad the same day.
