WHO: H1N1 swine flu pandemic starting to wane in some Countries

H1N1 swine flu has not peaked yet but seems to be waning in Canada and the United States, signaling that the end of the pandemic may be on the horizon, the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Thursday. A third wave of infections may still be ahead, Keiji Fukuda, the WHO’s top flu expert, said. But he added there was no sign of widespread resistance to Tamiflu, the main drug used to treat the H1N1 flu strain. Source: Reuters
