<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNEW DELHI: Union health minister JP Nadda<\/a> will chair a meeting with Delhi Health Minister and senior officials from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) and the Government of National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi on Friday to review the H1N1 situation in the national capital.The meeting comes amid reports of a rise in swine flu<\/a> cases in Delhi, raising health concerns as the city experiences humid and fluctuating weather conditions, according to news agency PTI.According to officials, the review will assess the current epidemiological situation, preparedness of healthcare facilities, availability of diagnostic and treatment services, and measures being undertaken by the Delhi government and health authorities to monitor and contain the spread of H1N1.The Centre’s review assumes significance as changing weather patterns, including high humidity and temperature fluctuations, are considered conducive to the spread of seasonal respiratory infections.A recent report indicated a spike in swine flu cases in Delhi amid prevailing humid and variable weather conditions. Health experts have advised residents to remain alert to flu-like symptoms and seek medical attention if required.H1N1, commonly known as swine flu, is a respiratory infection caused by the influenza A(H1N1) virus. Symptoms include fever, cough, sore throat, body ache, headache, chills and fatigue. In certain cases, especially among vulnerable groups, the infection can lead to serious complications.The review meeting is expected to focus on strengthening surveillance systems and ensuring that hospitals and healthcare facilities remain adequately prepared to handle any increase in cases.Nadda has previously underscored the need for coordination between the Centre and state governments in tackling seasonal and communicable diseases. In July, he reviewed Delhi’s preparedness for dengue prevention and control and called for close coordination among the Union government, Delhi government, municipal authorities, healthcare institutions and frontline workers.During that review, the minister also emphasised proactive preparedness, disease surveillance, early detection, hospital readiness and regular monitoring to prevent a potential surge in cases.The Union Health Ministry and the Delhi government are expected to evaluate whether existing surveillance mechanisms and healthcare infrastructure are sufficient to respond to the reported rise in H1N1 cases.Officials are also likely to review the availability of medicines, testing facilities and hospital beds, while discussing ways to strengthen public awareness regarding preventive measures.The outcome of the meeting is expected to provide a clearer assessment of the extent of the reported increase in H1N1 cases and identify measures required to prevent further transmission of the infection in Delhi.<\/div>\n The meeting comes amid reports of a rise in swine flu cases in Delhi NEW DELHI: Union health minister JP Nadda will chair a meeting with Delhi
