Two cases of influenza a/H1N1 were recorded by the Secretary of State for health (Sesa), in the ES, in this year of 2013. One of the people contracted the virus in the great victory and the other in the interior of the State, as informed the Sesa. Despite the records, there is no reason for concern, since the Government has adopted measures to protect the most vulnerable population. According to the Secretariat, the two patients were hospitalized, but received high and pass well. according to the technical manager for H1N1 flu of Sesa, Silvana Guasti, the annual campaign of vaccination against the disease has been extended. The vaccine includes the virus strain applied and thus helps protect the population more susceptible, as children under two years old, elderly people with 60 years or older, pregnant women and people with risk factors (diabetes, heart disease, chronic kidney or lung, cancer and Aids). across the country, the Ministry of health has recorded 61 deaths caused by the virus, commonly known as swine flu, and 388 people infected. Among the tips to prevent disease, Silvana highlights that it is important to avoid urban areas and indoors, wash your hands with SOAP and water, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, keep healthy and balanced nutrition, not to share food and personal objects and avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.
