Wednesday August 5, 2009 MYT 4:10:00 PM

PETALING JAYA: The Influenza A(H1N1) virus claimed four more lives, bringing the total number of fatalities in Malaysia to 12.

Three patients were a three-year-old, a 12-year-old and a 20-year old who all died at the Malacca Hospital on Aug 3, Health Ministry director-general Tan Sri Ismail Merican said on Wednesday.

The fourth was a six-year-old boy who died at 2.30am Wednesday at the Batu Pahat Hospital, the second such death in Johor.

Overall, there were 16 new cases of A(H1N1) infection recorded over the past 24 hours, bringing the accumulated total in Malaysia to 1,476 since the outbreak.

In MIRI, Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai warned those with even a mild case of flu to immediately isolate themselves from their family and the general public to curb the flu.

He added that the worsening haze in the country was going to make the A(H1N1) situation worse.

On Tuesday, the air quality in five areas reached unhealthy levels as the number of hotspots in Sumatra and Kalimantan increased drastically.




From initially H1N1 cases detected from tourist and oversea return Malaysian, until now the local transmitted cases are increasing dramatically and even bring the numbers of death. Recent death cases involved are children. Are the Malaysian Health Government taking this issue seriously?

Shopping Complex is still crowded with shoppers especially during this Malaysia Shopping Carnival Sales. Just sit at home during weekends? hahahaa how many of us or how long can we stand without going out??

Malaysian Health Ministry advised those to isolate themselves from Family and Public even with a mild FLU ! But how / what to categorized as mild FLU? Cough and flu is just so common among humans.

hahaaa this morning after shower.. i do have a several sneeze !!! hahaaa shall i quarantine myself too?? isolate from Family and Public... then how?? i gonna shift out from HOME? or sleep outside the car pouch? =.='' But who is gonna approve my MC leave from work?


Nothing much we can do... Each of us do little on our part. Can save yourself and others.
- Drink more water
- Wash hand often with detergent/ alcohol
- Avoid going to crowded places
- Take vitamins C/ supplements
- Wear a mask when necessary



SAVE YOURSELF, SAVE THE WORLD
