H1N1 cases rise drastically in Jordan

Discovered cases of infection with H1N1 virus in Jordan are increasing drastically in number; approximating a number of around 100 cases a day. Strategies of dealing with the issue have changed a little bit, as infected people with slight degrees of the disease are now treated at home, while only the severe cases of infection are treated in isolation in a couple of Jordanian hospitals which are handling such cases. Jordanian citizens are getting more and more worried though, especially after the two deaths caused by the flu, although reports came out to confirm that those two cases were suffering from other health conditions, which made fighting the virus a hard thing to do.

While ANY preventable flu-related death is a tragedy, Jordan has been pro-active in this respect; we have had 211 confirmed deaths in Australia from H1N1 so far (our population is 22 million, Jordan's is 6.3 million). Home treatment prevents sufferers from infecting sick people in doctor's surgeries.
