Brazilian health officials believe their biggest worry for Rio 2016 won?t be the Zika virus but rather H1N1, also known as the swine flu.
Daniel Soranz, the municipal secretary of health for the city of Rio de Janeiro, told a select group of journalists including Around the Rings that the H1N1 virus is the biggest threat to public health during the winter months in Rio.
The Olympic Games in August will take place during the heart of Rio?s winter. Soranz says that the elderly, children up to five years of age and chronic disease patients are most at risk.
