BANGKOK : Thailand confirmed three more Influenza A (H1N1) flu fatalities on Monday, bringing the country's death toll from the virus to 21.

Two females and a male were the latest victims of the A(H1N1) virus, while 328 new cases were confirmed, bringing the total number of infections to 3,883 across the kingdom, a public health ministry statement said.

The ministry will ask the cabinet to approve a 70-million-baht (2.1-million-dollar) budget on Tuesday to raise awareness about H1N1 flu, Deputy Prime Minister Sanan Kachonprasart said.

A vaccine plant was opened south of Bangkok on Sunday, which is expected to produce two million doses of H1N1 flu vaccinations by January. - AFP/ms
