Flu outbreak death toll rises to 25

Three more people have died from flu in Greece in the past 24 hours, raising the total number to 25, authorities said on Thursday.

Patients who have been hospitalized in intensive care units since the start of the flu season have reached 78. Of those, 37 continue to be monitored in those units.

Scientists, however, reassure that an increase in the number of fatalities is expected as the flu outbreak peaks.
