19 thousand infections per week/ IHP: We are on the verge of an epidemic, high

The Public Health Institute confirms the threshold of the influenza epidemic and the serious epidemiological situation in the country. The number of infected people per week now reaches 19 thousand people.


Simaku emphasizes that influenza A and B viruses, along with their subtypes, are in their season, but in parallel, the respiratory syncytial virus and other viruses are circulating in the country.

The flu virus should not be taken lightly as it can cause death, especially in people with chronic illnesses. Currently, there have been no reported cases of hospitalization due to complications.

Doctors explain that the flu requires the body to rest and be treated by consuming fluids in addition to aperitifs. Therefore, parents are advised not to send their children to daycare centers and schools, and that anyone infected should take a minimum of three days off.
