More swine flu deaths in the souths

What happens in South Italy? Yesterday the Ministry of Health updated the swine flu report. The number of deaths has risen to 137. A total of 67 people have died in the regions of South Italy: Abruzzo, Basilicata, Calabria, Campania, Molise, and Puglia. The virus has killed 30 people in Campania, 18 in Puglia, and 13 in Calabria. So, the 55% of swine flu deaths has occurred in the south, where live only the 25% of the Italians. According to the Ministry, the national update depends on the speed of the regional updates, so maybe there's a difference in the regional reporting. Or maybe something really happened in South Italy. By the way, the Italian news media are still covering the issue, even though there are fewer articles.

Flu death in Naples

More details about the patient who died yesterday in Naples after being infected by H1N1 flu virus. He was a doctor, affected by anaemia, obesity and cardiac disease. On Monday he was admitted at Cotugno Hospital because of pneumonia. According the local newspaper Il Mattino, he didn't got vaccination because the regional health units have run out of the doses, primarily used for health care workers. The Italian Deputy Minister of Health Ferruccio Fazio said in an interview that the pandemic has started off and that in some part of Italy,, especially in South Italy, the vaccination campaign is late.
Personally, I don't understand who is late, the vaccine manufacturer, the national health structure or the local one.
