The Gauteng Health Department has urged people who develop cold and flu like symptoms over winter to see a doctor to avoid another swine flu epidemic.
The National Institute for Communicable Diseases said over 200 South Africans are being treated for the virus -129 of them in Gauteng.
On Monday, a private school in Johannesburg closed its doors to pupils in grade six and below because of simultaneous outbreaks of swine flu and mumps.
Gauteng Health?s Sello Mokoena said: ?We are also encouraging people to take the normal flu injections especially those that are vulnerable with chronic diseases and related health problems.?
