[h=1]State records 414 H1N1 deaths, 50% of India's toll[/h]
MUMBAI: Maharashtra accounts for nearly 50% of all H1N1 influenza casualties and one-fourth of the confirmed cases detected in the country since January. Baffled by the staggering number of deaths, the state's public health department has started taking a closer look at every casualty before labelling it as H1N1.

The state has so far recorded 414 deaths and 4,014 cases. Death committees comprising five members at every municipal area have begun investigating whether H1N1 was the predominant reason for a patient's death. The need for such scrutiny arose after a cursory analysis showed that at least 60% of the 414 victims were suffering from some chronic condition. It appeared that several H1N1 victims were battling cancer, HIV, tuberculosis or dengue and the viral disease turned into the proverbial last straw.
