As the winter season is progressing, the swine flu strain in Marwar is proving to be more dangerous. It has been revealed in the research conducted by the country’s microbiology labs in view of the growing patients in the state. The medical college of Jodhpur has also confirmed it.

The beginning of December witnessed six deaths in four days due to swine flu. This research has shown that this virus will spread tremendously at 0 to 15-degree temperature, its attack will continue afterward also but gradually speed will also slow down. These diseases can also spread by shaking hands or sneezing.

So far, 1485 suspected patients’ samples have been taken in Jodhpur. Swine flu has been confirmed in 130 people and 20 people have so far died in Jodhpur. A young man died today at MDM Hospital. In the sequence of deaths, 13 people are being told from other districts and 7 people from Jodhpur city and Jodhpur district. Most patients from Nagaur district are coming out and so far 6 deaths have occurred in this district.

The condition is that after clinically recognizing the symptoms of this disease in the villages, the doctors are only referring them to cities because the ‘oseltamivir’ medication is not available there which the patient should get as soon as the disease starts.

Later, when the patient is admitted to the Isolation Ward of Jodhpur in the worst condition, then there is an attempt to save him from the TEMI Flu which is inadequate.

For this reason, people are dying from this disease. Many rural patients treat swine flu as a common cold and try some ‘dadi maa ke nuskhein’ prescription or even lose their life by going to neem hakims (fake doctors).Only patients of category C are coming in front-

At present, most of the patients in Jodhpur died due to swine flu.

The experts say that whoever gets this disease once, they will not have this disease for the second time because their Body transforms the strain of the swine flu.
