MEXICO CITY .- The World Health Organization (WHO), the Ministry of Health of Mexico and other international agencies have confirmed that influenza A H1N1 traveled to seasonal, to detect that 99.9% of cases belong to this virus, which has claimed the lives of nine thousand people in the world until Friday.
In their accounts, the WHO reported that the number of patients in the world is virtually unmanageable and therefore no longer count individual cases.
Mauricio Hernandez, Undersecretary of Prevention and Promotion of the Health Ministry said more than 98% of influenza cases in Mexico are type A H1N1.
"This means that this virus (H1N1) virus completely displaced seasonal we saw all year."
He commented that in the case of Mexico "mutations have been found to occur normally and thankfully are not associated with increased virulence or resistance (antiviral) Tamiflu.
The WHO said that in most cases of influenza A H1N1 in the world has developed as a mean disease manageable at home, so most countries no longer counted, but there is an increase in severe cases of the new viruses that require hospitalization or who have died.
Keiji Fukuda, special adviser on pandemic, the WHO noted that since the influenza A H1N1 has spread worldwide, it is too early to determine whether there might be a new wave in April 2010.
WHO no longer count the cases because the figures are intractable infections
