Hungarian woman dies of H1N1 flu virus
A 60-year-old woman infected with the H1N1 flu virus died in Szeged on Thursday, in Hungary's first fatality related to the illness in more than two months.
The woman was hospitalised on Sunday with symptoms of the flu, but also suffered from several chronic diseases and had not been given a protective inoculation.
The State Medical Office Ántsz said the virus remains dangerous and it is still not too late to have a vaccination.
