New Zealand Expects Fast Rise in H1N1 Flu Cases

New Zealand expects a big increase in H1N1 flu cases in the coming months, as infections from the virus continue to rise across the Asia-Pacific region.

Health authorities say 213 of its 258 cases have been recorded in the past seven days. Public Health Director Dr. Mark Jacobs said Sunday most cases have been mild to moderate, but the country is likely to see a big increase in cases in the coming months. It has an additional 728 suspected cases, he said.
