Closing the Swine Flu Monitor

We have decided to conclude our worldwide monitoring of the swine flu cases as it has become a matter fact right now that A(H1N1) has already invaded Cebu and certain provinces in the Philippines. It is now up to the Department of Health (DOH) to ensure that no casualty of life would follow our first and apparently only death due to what is now called the "novel H1N1" virus. As of 6 July 2009, a total of 94,512 confirmed cases have been reported with 429 deaths worldwide. Countries largely hit (more than 1,000 confirmed cases) include: Argentina (2,485), Australia (5,298), Canada (7,983), Chile (7,376), China (2,040), Japan (1,790), Mexico (10,262), New Zealand (1,059), Philippines (1,709), Singapore (1,055), Thailand (2,076), United Kingdom (7,447), and the United States of America (33,902). Those with the most casualties (more than 10 deaths) include: Argentina (60), Australia (10), Canada (25), Chile (14), Mexico (119), and the United States of America (170).
