SINGAPORE: Two more people were admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on Sunday after coming down with H1N1 flu infections.
The first is a 61-year-old man with heart problems. He had cough, sore throat and running nose for a week, and was transferred to ICU because of breathlessness.
He is currently on a ventilator and in a critical condition.
The second patient is a 14-year-old boy who has asthma and epilepsy. He was warded after two days of fever, and three seizures.
He is currently on a ventilator and in a critical condition. Earlier this week, a 13-year old boy with epilepsy died after being infected with H1N1 flu.
There are currently a total of 10 H1N1 flu patients in ICU.
Some thoughts about H1N1 in Singapore. . .
Recently, there were many pupils who were down with flu, fever and sore throat. I'm glad that students who were unwell the previous week are back in school! Staying healthy is a MUST during this crucial period where my students are taking Prelims soon. Hopefully, the flu virus saga will end soon. :)
19 more days till Prelims. Endure! Persevere!
Never Give Up.
