Per WHO update up to 15 May, there are an increase of 1022 cases from May14th. There were no new cases from Mexico, however, looking at Mexico data reporting trend, they seams to report the number cases on every two days, therefore, if there are new cases from Mexico, we will see it on May 16. Of the 1022 new cases reported by WHO, 946 of them are from the US, 60 from Canada, 11 from Panama, 3 from Columbia and 2 from Cuba. Notice that all the new cases reported are from the Americas region. The number of deaths still stay at 65, which is a good news for now.
Malaysia also see it’s first A(H1N1) case today, however, it was not reported to or by WHO yet, and so, these number of death and cases being reported by WHO are not the latest and greatest data. In actual fact, there may be more than 7517 cases as of May 15 and more death that has yet to be reported by WHO.

Mexico and the US are the biggest gainers to date as they keep on reporting new cases by the hundreds. Its either these were backlog cases from the laboratory, or the virus is spreading at an accelerated rate there.
