PHNOM PENH, Aug. 7 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian health ministry announced on Friday that it has confirmed 24 cases of A/H1N1 influenza in the the country.
"The two latest cases are a 22-year-old Khmer girl and a 38-year-old Australian man," said Sok Touch, director of communicable disease control department of Health Ministry.
"The Australian man is the father of a girl who had tested positive for the flu," he said. "They are in stable condition and are recovering after treatment."
Nobody has died so far in Cambodia, according to Sok Touch. He said, "Cambodia will not hide the number of infected people or died people. Everything is transparent."
"Cambodia has been trying to prevent the spread of the flu and strengthening the tracking system at airports and international border gates," he said, calling the local people to protect and prevent themselves from the flu.
"The most important thing," Sok Touch stressed, "is that the local residents should have to protect themselves."
