        There are a victim of fatal influenza in Black River Print E-Mail


        Capital Federal (DNA) .- The first victim of fatal influenza in the province of Black River was officially confirmed by the Ministry of Health of the Nation, but the figure corresponds to the July 9, so that the information would be outdated and it would be contradictory to the released by the Ministry of Health of Black River.

        Days until July 5, the Ministry of Health of the Nation daily reported confirmed cases of infection and deaths from Influenza A, discriminating province by province, in addition to providing the national total. However on 6, 7 and 8 July there was no party daily so information was discontinued.

        So the day arrived July 9, where in the report which was renamed Nation party newspaper (not daily as before), mentions that there are Black River in 25 cases of confirmed infection of influenza A and one person died.

        The Ministry of Health of the Nation, in the case of contagion, it would be outdated when compared with that provided by the Ministry of Health of Black River for the same date (July 9) reported the requirement of 30 cases of contagion in the province.

        But not only exist in the information gap Nation - State in relation to the infected, but also the number of deaths since Nation says (from July 9) that there is a person who died in Black River, while the province still does not report any (DNA).
