India Swine Flu Outbreak ‘Kills 94’
An outbreak of swine flu in India has killed at least 94 people in just over five weeks, reports say.
The health ministry said more than 450 cases had been reported, mostly in the northern state of Rajasthan.
Officials say they are investigating the cause of the outbreak, with some experts saying low winter temperatures are to blame.
The H1N1 virus, which causes swine flu, first appeared in Mexico in 2009 and rapidly spread around the world.
It killed 981 Indians in 2009, 1,763 in 2010, 75 in 2011 and 405 last year.
It is thought the virus has killed 200,000 people around the world.
