"We have sufficient stock of vaccines to treat the patients in emergency. All hospitals have been put on alert to meet any eventuality. A case of swine flu was reported, we were satisfied with the treatment but his family members decided to take him to a Delhi hospital," said Vimal Kumar Sharma, the district magistrate of Ghaziabad.
