No (yet) flu epidemic in Saint Martin

0

If an influenza epidemic is underway in Martinique, Guadeloupe and Saint-Barthélemy, there is not yet one in Saint-Martin where the regional agency has noted an increase in consultations with doctors in recent weeks.

Twenty-six visits to general practitioners were recorded in the last week of 2017 and three cases of influenza-like illness were seen at the Louis-Constant Fleming hospital center.

“The increasing trends are to be followed in the coming weeks,” she notes in her first health watch bulletin of the year.

There is also no epidemic of gastroenteritis, bronchiolitis and chickenpox in Saint Martin. (Source: www.soualigapost.com)
