“Central government has been very serious about it and all precautionary measures were taken. It’s a continuous process, health ministry goes for review meeting before flu season starts.

“We did a review meeting in December and instructed states and our hospitals. Doctors were trained, isolation wards were made, they were told how to protect health workers and how are the patients to be treated,” he said.

“By and large the state governments made preparations. Drugs, doctors, isolation wards were put in place. Both center and state governments also issued advertisements,” he said.

The minister said the number of deaths were because of ignorance. “Co-morbidity cases are high in number. Patients are coming late to doctors after taking medicine themselves.”
