                Mexico City - Mexican authorities corrected the number of people killed by swine flu from previously 20 to seven. Miguel Angel Lezana, director of the national epidemiological and disease control centre, said late Tuesday the mutated H1N1 swine flu virus was confirmed to be responsible for seven deaths.

                The other 13 cases could not be confirmed yet. Mexican authorities previously put the swine flu death toll at 20. Lezana said additional testing was conducted on recommendation of the the Geneva-based World Health Organization. At least 159 people have been killed by flu infections in Mexico, Health Minister Jose angel Cordova said. More than 1,300 people were hospitalized out of a total of around 2,500 suspected cases, he added.

                  Mexico revises confirmed flu death toll down to seven
                  2009-04-29 03:16:37.939 GMT

                  ATTENTION - ADDS quotes ///

                  MEXICO CITY, April 28, 2009 (AFP) - Mexico on Tuesday revised
                  downwards its confirmed death toll from a new strain of flu to seven
                  from 20, Health Minister Jose Angel Cordova told reporters.
                  Cordova also raised the toll of "probable" deaths from the H1N1
                  virus to 159 from a previous figure of 152.
                  A total of 1,311 people remain in hospital after exhibiting
                  symptoms of the flu, he said.
                  Cordova explained the change in the confirmed death toll by
                  saying further, more rigorous tests had forced an official recount.
                  "Of 159 (probable) deaths, only seven have been confirmed," he
                  told the journalists.
                  Under sharp questioning as to how such a discrepancy could have occurred, Cordova said -- to some confusion -- that 26 proven cases of swine flu had been detected, of which "seven corresponded beyond any doubt to deaths caused by the new virus."
                  He added: "This tallying task has in great part been carried out
                  in conjunction with the WHO (World Health Organization). They only
                  count as 'positives' confirmed cases."
                  Cordova said Mexican authorities were working with specialized
                  laboratories in the United States and Canada to test suspected flu
                  samples.

                    looks good !!!

                    only 159 deaths. 62,81,103,149,159
                    1004,1324,1614,1995,2498

                    not typically exponential as for flu-waves

                    maybe they are using Tamiflu earlier now ?
                    Maybe the taken measures work, the population is more careful.


                    Can the numbers be trusted ?

                    Do we have reports from Mexican people, bloggers, journalists etc. ?
                    is there censorship ?
                    I'm interested in expert panflu damage estimates

                                Their statements coincided with the Federal Health Secretary Jose Angel Cordova, who said that the number of admissions to hospitals for suspected cases has been declining and that the trend of deaths has remained stable.

                                The government ordered the closure of restaurants, museums, stadiums, gymnasiums and churches in an attempt to curb the spread of the deadly outbreak of influenza. Authorities dismissed the capital for now any additional measures.

                                "In the Federal District and we have taken all the measures that are aimed at closing the chain of transmission, for now there is a further step," said the secretary of government of the city, Jose Angel Avila, a chain Radio Formula.

                                The epidemic began to hit the tourism and airlines since the United States, Canada and the European Union sought to avoid trips to Mexico that are not essential and Cuba suspended direct flights.
