Luanda - The director of the National Institute of Public Health, Filomena Gomes da Silva, said Tuesday in Luanda that the H1N1 flu epidemiological situation in the country remains as it was last week, with 37 cases out of 469 tested.


 
“No cases of H1N1 flu has been recorded this year in Angola, alike in the previous period. So we must take this opportunity to keep surveillance on this disease in the country”, she said at the end of a meeting of the interministerial Commission on the pandemic.
