Flu fear spreads, India on guard

April 29, 2009

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.
