A(H1N1): Many still unclear on symptoms

Dr Ismail said that no new deaths were recorded over the past 24 hours and the death toll remains at 73.

Sixty-eight new patients were warded in hospitals for ILI and 103 patients were discharged.

Dr Ismail said the five preventive measures which the public should take when it comes to A (H1N1) were to:

* COVER their mouth when coughing or sneezing;

* MAINTAIN good personal hygiene by constantly washing hands, particularly after coughing or sneezing;

* STAY away from individuals with influenza-like illness (ILI);

* AVOID crowded places; and

* STAY away from public places, especially for parents with small children.
