              Deaths due to influenza A H1N1 in the Biob?o surpass those registered in 2018

              A few days before the winter comes, there is concern among health authorities that the deaths due to influenza A H1N1 exceeded those of 2018.

              This is because last year there were six fatal victims of this virus and in 2019 there are eight in the area and 23 in the country. On this, the epidemiologist from the Biob?o Clinic, Tamara P?rez said that "if we think about the decrease in environmental temperature by the arrival of winter, we can think of a worsening of the situation we are facing.

              But we must also be optimistic and think that in the last few weeks many people have come to the vaccination process and that should also reduce the number of viruses circulating in our environment.

              Currently, according to the latest report on the epidemiological situation in the Biob?o Region, 590 influenza A viruses have been detected this year, quadruple of the viral circulation that existed at the same time in 2018, where 146 viruses had been reported. .

Despite doctors' attempts to stabilize her, the baby died late on Monday night.

                          For these moments, meanwhile, the hospital is doomed to confirm that the picture that triggered the death was caused by influenza virus A. The diagnosis was a myocarditis that although it is an infrequent complication of influenza, is described among the posibilities.
