Stable Flu A Hospitalizations, Decline in Emergency Room Cases in Cyprus

The number of hospitalizations for flu A in Cyprus remains stable, according to OKYPY spokesperson Charalambos Charilaou. Simultaneously, a decline in cases is being observed in the Accident and Emergency Departments (A&E). While patients with mild symptoms continue to be treated, some require admission to intensive care units. The situation is evaluated daily, and all necessary measures are being taken to provide appropriate care. Mr. Charilaou emphasized that the increase in flu A cases was expected during this period, but the current numbers do not cause concern. The stabilization of hospitalizations and the decline in A&E cases are positive signs. Flu A continues to circulate in the community, so it is recommended to take preventive measures, such as vaccination and adherence to hygiene rules. High-risk groups should be particularly careful and consult their doctor if symptoms appear. Overall, the picture of flu A in Cyprus appears to be stabilizing, with no cause for panic. Health authorities are closely monitoring the situation and are prepared to deal with any complications.
