No new swine-flu case had been reported so far, he added. The quarantined patients, six of whom were hospital staff members, would be observed for another 14 days before being sent home. Of these people, two were seriously ill hence transferred to Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital on June 13 where they were recovering.
