More cases of influenza are being reported in the north as the incidents of typhoid have fallen. Northern Health Services Doctor Ami Chandra said the recent rain was to blame for many people developing headache, fever and running nose. He said cases of diarrhoea had also dropped from 50 per day to at least 10 compared to the past few weeks. Dr Chandra said 190 confirmed cases of typhoid had been treated so far and the numbers were declining every month. He said at least 20 cases were treated each month since the beginning of the year but the number had dropped to approximately 15. Dr Chandra said people living in villages and settlements were receptive to the campaign program. He said patients suffering with influenza were also expected to reduce in a few days. He said the epidemic started in Viti Levu a few weeks ago and the movement of people had spread the virus.
