The swine flu not an health problem


This year the swine flu is one of the main issues discussed at the SIMG meeting, in Florence, from November 26 to 28. "The swine flu has never been an health problem for Italy, just a challenge for the health care system" has said  Claudio Cricelli, President of the Societa' Italiana di Medicina Generale (SIMG). So it's official: too much fuss over nothing. Anyway, the vaccination campaign is still on. The deaths have risen to 91, mostly young people. The incidence of the flu has decreased in Lombardia, Tuscany and Campania, while still high in other regions,as Sicily and Sardinia.
