An H1N1 infection has been confirmed in a nearly three-year-old girl in Chhattisgarh's Durg district, officials said on Sunday.
The girl, aged two years and 11 months, is undergoing treatment at a private hospital, they said.

The girl has been admitted to an isolation ward and is under close medical observation, officials said, adding that her condition is currently stable and she is out of danger.
