The number of positive cases for swine flu is increasing and so far it is reaching 200. We do not have specific figure because even WHO and CDC stopped counting because of the increasing number and most of the cases were not detected just like the common flu. It means that the figures are not accurate. What we are sure about is the one death in Qatar from a traveller who arrived in Doha with a complication of pneumonia. The concern now is the coming school opening because many people will be arriving from vacation and most of the countries around the world have confirmed cases of more than 100. The community can help by advising all those arriving to have self-quarantine in their places for at least a week and if there is any symptoms of flu, they must seek consultations immediately to our health centers. Each individual must be responsible not to transfer the virus thru frequent hand washing, limiting contacts or exposure to other people or going in crowded areas, covering nose and mouth with tissue during coughing and sneezing, seeking consultation and also self-quarantine.
