Woman dies in Mahabubnagar 

HYDERABAD: The swine flu virus, which was hitherto confined to a few cities, claimed its second victim in Mahabubnagar district on Thursday as the disease spread fast to new areas. A suspected patient was quarantined in Guntur.

According to information reaching here, Saritha of Peddapur village in Veldanda mandal in Mahabubnagar district, died at a private hospital in Hyderabad in the early hours on Thursday. Saritha who gave birth to a girl child at Kalwakurthy hospital, a few days ago, developed breathing problems and symptoms of swine flu. Doctors at Kalwakurthy referred her to Hyderabad where she died while undergoing treatment.

Another woman Renuka (25), has been admitted to a private hospital in Mahabubnagar, where her condition was said to be critical. Two other persons, Anjaneyulu and Kishore, are undergoing treatment at government headquarters hospital. As reports of more number of people affected kept pouring in, the panicky people are criticising authorities for failing to check spread of the virus.

Guntur Staff Reporter adds: A woman in Krishna Nagar was quarantined on Thursday at her home after her husband, a post graduate student pursuing Nephrology course in Hyderabad, tested positive for the A(H1N1) virus. She seemed to have contracted the virus from her husband who visited Guntur, a few days ago.

Doctors assured her she would be stable within a couple of days. The couple has a four-year-old child. Doctors classified the infection under category D and said that it occurs due to contact with an infected person.

Government General Hospital Superintendent D. Phanibhushan said that the staff at the GGH and the Fever Hospital on the Amaravathi Road were on the alert following spread of the disease. The GGH had stock of 300 boxes of Tamiflu medicine and made arrangements for procuring more, he said.
