6/24 GUADALAJARA, JALISCO .- According to the latest report of results in human influenza, the Institute of Epidemiological Diagnosis and Reference (Indre), reported that 13 tests were positive for influenza A H1N1 virus.
Of the new cases, one is a sixth grade student at a primary Tlaquepaque, classroom, indeed, remained closed for a week, precisely because of an outbreak of respiratory infections that affected four schools.
6/24 This is to prevent the spread of infection in Yucatan, where the virus had been controlled and now the number of patients has shot up considerably.

Mexican health officials say swine flu cases have spiked in the southern states of Yucatan and Chiapas prompting authorities to start the summer break weeks early.
The Health Department says that confirmed infections spiked by 25 percent in each state this week. In Yucatan, cases went from 683 to 913 and in Chiapas from 492 to 657.
Department spokesman Carlos Olmos says Mexico's epidemic is under control and that the infections in Yucatan and Chiapas have been mainly at schools.
Officials in Yucatan said summer break started Wednesday, three weeks ahead of schedule. In Chiapas, the break would start 10 days early on July 4.
The statement Thursday says 9,028 people have been infected with swine flu resulting in 119 deaths
But this is the statement that concerns me-
