BUENOS AIRES, July 6 (Reuters) – Argentines are questioning the government’s handling of an H1N1 flu outbreak that has killed 60 people amid confusion over the number of cases and accusations that officials acted too slowly.
President Cristina Fernandez has sought to halt the spread of the new swine flu strain at the height of the Southern Hemisphere winter by closing schools and letting public sector workers to take time off.
But critics have chided her for going ahead with a congressional election last week and flying to Washington over the weekend to join a diplomatic mission to reinstate the ousted Honduran president while the flu death toll mounts.

“The government’s clearly not handling this well,” said Leopoldo Fernandez Suarez, an engineer who has sent his two children to Patagonia to get away from the capital and its suburbs where most cases have been reported.
“I don’t pay any attention to what they’re saying. I don’t have any confidence in them,” he added.
A two-year controversy over accusations the government is manipulating key economic data for political gain has also fueled doubts about the extent of the outbreak of H1N1, which first emerged in Mexico and the United States earlier this year.

Im following the FLUTRACKER, and here in Argentina we have more than 124 deaths (07 de junio 2009), but no banning of public gathering has been declared.
The military are helping with the flu cases.
In the place I live, last night I saw a chemtrail in the night, not in the day, I hope
they are not spraying us with bacteria or viruses !

People dies there because there is no life support machines, medicines and unificated criteria or knowledges to fight against the outbreak. People of Argentina have low defenses against diseases due to maltrutinion. The hospitals are saturated. There no doctors.
The president declared “health emergency” only after the legislative elections of the last week exposing people to the virus, that´s why the health minister Ocaña resigned. If you are a health minister and your voice is not heard eventually you will resign.
With this panorama imagine the hell that there living.
