Special counters have been set up at nine international airports in India to screen passengers coming from countries affected by swine flu like Mexico, Canada and the United States.
A total of six counters have been set up near the immigration desks and 32 doctors and eight nurses have been deployed for the check-ups at the counters, a senior health official said on Wednesday.
The counters will start functioning from midnight, he said.
