N95 Mask

The victim was being treated for swine flu after the swab samples tested positive to the H1N1 virus reports said.

The Tamil Nadu government had said yesterday that it wanted to “re-validate” swab tests done on the boy, since only gastric-related samples were sent for tests and not the usual nose and throat samples.
