The ministry said the charge was confused

Deputy Minister of Public Health Jose Rodriguez Aybar, said it has investigated suspected cases of the disease, but have been discarded because it was determined flu.

In that sense, the official said it is an obvious confusion the statement he made to Dr. Jose Delanco Despradel, CEO of Maternal and Child health institute.
