So patients in those 2 hospitals will have to be tested for confirmation through blood results. People whom visited that hospital between the period of January 2005 and February 2006 were suspected to have the disease.

People whom numbered around 1,000 came into contact with the affected people have less chance of getting infected – said the Health Service Executives.
