Kolkata, Feb 10 (IANS) Two women in Kolkata have tested positive for swine flu, a health department official said Tuesday. Both have been hospitalised.
"Two women have tested positive for the H1N1 influenza virus in Kolkata. They are being monitored constantly and adequate measures are being taken to contain the spread. The state is on alert," state health secretary Moloy De told IANS.
