Updated to May 27th - 1,942 cases reported so far in 2013. (234 January, 283 February, 713 March, 497 April, 215 May)

The Ministry no longer reports fatalities, but for the first 15 weeks of 2012 a cfr of 1.6% was established. This gives rise to an estimated 31 fatalities in 2013.

This is approximately double the number of cases seen in 2012.
