At least 12 deaths have been reported in a swine flu outbreak across four Indian states, health ministry officials said Friday. The outbreak has affected a total of 129 people since the beginning of March and many of the patients were still hospitalised, health ministry spokeswoman Shefali Saran said. The western state of Maharashtra was the worst hit, with six deaths in and around Pune, the state's second-largest city after Mumbai.
Five people died of the virus in the north-western state of Rajasthan while one person died in southern state of Andhra Pradesh, data released by the ministry showed. Another southern state, Karnataka, confirmed five cases of the H1N1 virus. Saran said the situation was "under control and there was no panic." The health ministry had asked state authorities to step up surveillance to stop the spread of the disease," Saran said.
