The number of new cases of swine flu in England

The number of new cases of swine flu in England appears to be levelling off, with an estimated 110,000 new cases reported last week. This compares to an estimated 100,000 cases the week before.

Sir Liam Donaldson, the Chief Medical Officer, noted that the change coincided with the break up of schools for the summer and the introduction of the National Pandemic Flu Service last week.
