Hyderabad: Three deaths have been recorded in Telangana on January 25 taking the death toll to 25. Around fifty-two cases tested positive on Sunday taking the total number of cases in the month of January to 388.
Five junior doctors from OGH have also tested positive. The three people who succumbed to H1N1 are a 45-year-old woman from Ramanthapur, and two men from from Waranagal and Old Bowenpally, both ageing around 50 years.
These deaths have come to the notice of the district medical and health officers as they have been going around to check on the condition of the patients, who have tested positive.
On visiting these patients, it was found that they had succumbed to the virus. These deaths are now being recorded in the statistical data being compiled by the health authorities.
While the state government is optimist that the cases will come down, once the temperatures rise, the problem coming to the fore is that the numbers are only increasing and there is a strong need for the infected patients to be isolated to curb the spread of the virus.
