A loud noise startled the warmth of La Guajira over the weekend: "There Aremasain A H1N1 and more than 50 children affected." As ever, the priest who runs the boarding of the population received a flood of calls just because their institution was designated as the center of the news.

Initially, 50 were minors who were affected by "a virus that is transmitted by the wind and the contact between the children," said Velez Gomez noted that while "there are no breeding of dengue."

Ocando Rosa Pacheco, a member of La Guajira Wayuu and origin, took over the case, and that 97% of 376 thousand young people between five and 20 years of age who are educated in this center are of indigenous origin .

Re: Aremasain A H1N1 and more than 50 children affected

This thread is in the wrong place. This outbreak is NOT in Armenia, it is in Aremasain, which I believe is a city in Guajira, which I think is in Colombia.

That would explain why the original article is in Spanish.
