WHO Influenza Update #36

 

 

# 3239

 

 

 

The WHO has released its daily numbers, we see a very modest jump of 134 confirmed cases.  

 

As I reported yesterday (see The Surveillance Gap and Arizona & Utah Report Swine Flu Fatalities)  and again on Wednesday (see H1N1 In Europe: Hiding In Plain Sight?) there are genuine problems in our global surveillance, not to mention a reluctance by some countries to look very hard for the virus.

 

In any event, for whatever it is worth, here are today’s numbers.
