Dozens of people have died and hundreds of others have been infected in a viral outbreak in Mexico suspected to have been caused by a strain of swine flu.

The World Health Organization thinks the virus may be behind 60 deaths in Mexico since mid-March.

Mexican authorities have closed schools in affected areas and a vaccination campaign is being launched.

Seven non-fatal cases of a new form of swine flu have also been confirmed in the southern United States.

A WHO spokesman said 12 out of 18 samples taken from the Mexican victims showed they died from a virus with the same genetic structure as the one found in the US.

The WHO would convene an emergency meeting in the “very near future” to determine whether the event constituted a “public health event of international concern”, Gregory Hartl told Reuters news agency.

The White House said it was following the US outbreak – in California and Texas – closely.

‘Mutated from pigs’

WHO spokeswoman Fadela Chaib said “unusual end-of-season influenza activity” was noticed in Mexico starting from the end of March.

Fifty-seven people had died in Mexico City from flu-like symptoms, she said, and another three in San Luis Potosi in central Mexico. There are around 800 suspected cases, she said.

    A 2005 study by Dr. Julie Gerberding, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Donna Stroup, estimated deaths from poor diet and physical inactivity, had increased to 400,000 in 2000, up from 300,000 a decade earlier. But after scientists inside and outside the CDC agency questioned the death estimates, the CDC admitted making a calculation error, and lowered its estimate in January to 365,000.
    Obesity accounted for 57 000 deaths over 15 years in Canada. Give or take?

    Albert,Tom & Stew

    Yesterday I walked in Times Square. Had 5 people filming me walking & talking for a future film from London. It was funny for we reviewed it later at a Starbucks in Tribeca.

    The idiot from Reuters & his dog calling ASAP on his walkie talkie “Jeff Fisher walking through” I then went to a phone booth & called 9-11 & informed them I will be getting filmed alot from now on.

    Later on we got great footage down by MSG where a nice female traffic cop was directing traffic.
