Chennai boy die of swine Flu
The H1N1 panic is spreading as fast as the virus across the country with two deaths being reported early on Monday morning.
An Ayurvedic doctor, who was working for Sassoon hospital in Pune, died of swine flu-related complications, taking the viral death toll to five in India.
Balasaheb Laxman Mane, a private practioner was brought to the hospital on August 7 with severe broncho-pneumonia after he tested positive on August 6.
Dean of Sassoon Hospital, Arun Jhamkar, told CNN-IBN that Mane was working in the slum areas of Pune and was immediately administered Tamiflu double dose at Sassoon once he tested positive. “He was put on ventilator and oxygenation was started. His lungs started responding. But haemodynamics failed after some time. We did everything possible but his heart did not respond. He died at 7:20 am today (Monday),” Jhamkar said.
The second death was reported on Monday from Chennai where a four-year-old boy suffering from H1N1 influenza died at a private city hospital.
