Cases of swine flu increased in Armenia. Doctors give advice: do not
panic and do engage in preventive anti-influenza measures.

Meanwhile Armenia’s Minister of Health, Harutyun Kushkyan, ordered
to examine pupils all around the state schools. Some schools provide
medical masks for children, and involve school doctors in inspections.

Moreover, some parents avoid using public transport to stay away from
crowds and send their kids to school by taxi.

Aysor’s correspondent learnt that kindergartens do not still hold any
measures or daily examinations; some kindergartens initiated these
measures by themselves. Administration of one of the kindergartens
even used cunning: they prepared garlic necklaces for children and
kids are happy to wear this.

Fortunately, garlic didn’t still rise in price, while some drugs did
(10 tablets for 15 thousand dram, it is about $39).
