Epidemiologists say that the number of people who have the swine flu in Serbia is a lot greater than official tallies indicate, but that most cases are minor. “The total number of laboratory-confirmed cases is 249. However, the number of people diagnosed as having the swine flu is a lot greater, the number can probably be multiplied by 10. We can say that several thousands of people have the flu,” said Branislav Tiodorovic, a member of the working group for following the swine flu. "Most swine flu cases not serious" He told the Beta news agency that these numbers should not worry people, because “it is only proof that minor cases of the flu are dominant.” Tiodorovic said that the numbers are probably even higher, but that many young people probably got over the flu without even having to consult a doctor. He said that there has been a drop in the number of cases in high school children, but that it is “a little worrying” that the numbers are increasing in children attending elementary schools and preschools.

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
