More cases all over Italy

The H1N1 virus is spreading in Italy and it's more difficult to keep track of what is going on. Three fatal cases in North Italy: an old woman afflicted by pneumonia in Milan, a young man afflicted by TB in Ferrara, another woman in Rimini. A woman died in Rome and three men in Naples, a 64 years old doctor, a 50 years old afflicted by obesity, a 73 years old doctor already afflicted by pulmonary disease. All the news from Corriere della Sera newspaper. So, now the deaths caused by the virus are 12. On Monday the Lombardia health system will start the second part of the vaccine campaign, for pregnant women and young (under 17 years) people with chronic disease. In other parts of Italy the campaign is still focused on health care workers. This evening the flu news were on tv, on channel Rai 1 (link, in Italian). Health authorities continue to repeat that this flu is a mild one, and that it affects only ill people.
It seems to me that there's a lot of pressure to stop people panicking, and not such an effort to protect people with illness. Maybe I just find irritating, when someone infected by the virus dies, the comment: “the patient was already ill.”
