As the whole world concerns about swine flu, departments about disease control and prevention in the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) have made preparations to meet any emergent instances.
"The main task for us now is to strengthen the monitoring and educate people how to prevent the disease," said Dawa, head of the TAR Disease Control and Prevention Institute.
He also revealed that a special lab with enough equipments can meet the checking need. If a patient is checked in the lab, the result can turn out in 10 minutes whether it is swine flu or not. And further analysis launched in this lab can prove which kind of disease it is.  Source:China Tibet Information Center
