Forty-three new swine flu cases were reported Suday by the Public Health Ministry, a drop of almost half from the daily average last week. Dr Somchai Chakrabhand, director-general of the Disease Control Department, said he believes preventive measures in schools were working to contain the spread of the disease, as new infections among students have dropped. However, health authorities will continue monitoring the situation because the outbreak can rise up again.
