The senior epidemiologist of the Departmental Service of Health (Headquarters), Efrain Vallejo, however, said that of that total have been taken 25 samples, which have been ruled out by laboratory tests.
Currently, Cochabamba is maintained with a single confirmed case two weeks ago, which corresponds to less than 14 years.
On Venues initiated vaccination against influenza A on April 4 and ended on 11 June. The result of the introduction of the new vaccine allowed 247 000 people in the department to be vaccinated. Currently no longer has the vaccine. Dr. Vallejo said that the behavior of the virus is variable, and the constitution of man. He said that there are people with natural vaccine, meaning that they are immune to the virus. Recommended that people remain vigilant and go to every possible method to avoid the flu.
