All the infected patients reported at SGPGI are either its employees or their family members. At the same time, another new swine flu patient was found last Friday. The 33-year-old youth is currently undergoing treatment. He is admitted in Apollo Hospital. The health department team is working hard to find out about this patient. On Saturday, the health department sought information from Apollo Hospital regarding this.
As of now, 22 of these swine flu patients have completely recovered. This information has been given by the officials of the Health Department. However, so many people getting infected with swine flu in a single institution is raising many questions.
