Text Size


This increase reflects our vulnerability to evil, compounded by factors such as humidity historic homes and buildings, dramatic temperature changes and, above all, the resistance shown by most people to see a doctor to administer adequate doses of antiviral and other measures with which this disease is curable within a period not exceeding ten days.

It follows Puebla, an increase of 124 percent, going from 183 confirmed cases to 411.

According to the Ministry of Health, Oaxaca is one of the entities with the highest incidence of human cases of influenza since increased 38.1 percent in the same period (from 626 cases to 865); Morelos increased from 120 to 149 cases (24.1 per cent ) Mexico City 2 thousand 511 a 2 mil 903 (15.6 percent), Veracruz 8.6 percent, going from 239 to 346 cases.

Chiapas, Yucatan and Jalisco also show an upward movement in the number of confirmed cases, although the restrictive measures deployed, especially in Chiapas, led to a drastic reduction of cases in this third regrowth.

In a joint press conference the Secretary of Health of Tlaxcala, Constantino Perez Quiroz, recognized this so that the surge semena of illness occurred in August, the date on which 47 cases were reported, and on 26 and 28 of same, the two latest deaths occurred because "patients come to medical attention when they present a picture of pneumonia complicated which results in the death" a situation that was attributed to "excessive trust between the population" They take the information lightly to prevent and control the spread of the virus.

Figures provided by the OPD tlaxcala point to as the town where most cases have been registered with 52, followed by Apizaco with 26, Chiautempan with 14, as municipalities and Yauhquemecan Tlaxco, Contla with 11 cases of positive and Tetla Solidarity with 7 cases.

At the same time, the health secretary had referred to a higher incidence of contact cases, because 10 families have been reported where up to 7 members are sick, which have been tested and fences to prevent the spread the virus among the nearby population.

In terms of the number of hospitalized so far reported 148 patients are treated in the Secretary of Health (SESA), 69 in the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS), 3 in ISSSTE, and one in a private clinic.

In the case of students for a total of 124 infections.

Quiroz Perez said there have been revisions in schools, especially primary and secondary, where only 5 cases have been detected suspicious, so he asked parents to increase measures to prevent and avoid sending children to school if Influenza and see a picture go to the doctor as soon as possible.

Also discussed so far, 3 hospitalized patients are as sensitive, while other patients in different clinics and health centers are reported as stable and high pre situation.

Finally I detail the measures that will increase prevention and control of disease, such as the purchase of fans, the conversion of areas in hospitals to give exclusive attention to patients with the virus as well as coordination with local councils and agencies to prevent contingency is spreading, and the constant dissemination of preventive measures to avoid a greater number of infections and deaths from the virus, since explicit, this is 100 percent curable as they are caught early and treatment opportunity .
