allAfrica.com: Zimbabwe: Wave of Influenza Hits Country (Page 1 of 1)

A WAVE of severe influenza, which has in some cases developed into complications such as pneumonia and diarrhoea, has hit some parts of the country as the cold weather persists.

Health and Child Welfare Deputy Minister Dr Edwin Muguti said people who develop that strain of flu should see a doctor early. He, however, said infections caused by viruses were common during winter as people usually remain indoors and get crowded.
