The FINANCIAL — Turkey's Health Ministry says three children have died of swine flu, bringing the country's death toll to seven, according to Today's Zaman.
The Ministry says a 22-month-old baby as well as a 4-year-old and a 14-year-old — both suffering from chronic illnesses — are the latest victims of the virus.
Turkey on November 2 began vaccinating vulnerable groups against swine flu, starting with health workers and Muslim pilgrims preparing to travel to Mecca for the annual hajj.
