Most of the new cases confirmed by the Cantacuzino Institute were identified in Bucharest (17). The counties Calarasi, Ilfov, Iasi and Prahova counted two cases each, while Brasov, Galati, Mures, Sibiu, Suceava and Timisoara one case each.
The patients infected with the A/H1N1 virus in the past week returned from Spain, England, Greece, Bulgaria, South Africa and United States.
The first swine flu contamination in Romania occurred on May 23, on a young woman who had returned from the United States.
Specialists estimate the virus will spread even more this fall, when the weather gets colder.
