12 out of the 60 Indonesians who participated in an asian choir contest in South Korea have contracted the H1N1 disease, on of the choir group leaders said Saturday.
"A doctor diagnosed them with the H1N1 virus," Lita Zein, a member of Elfa's singers said, as quoted by
Tempointeraktif.com.
Lita said the 12 members most likely contracted the flu on their flight from Indonesia to South Korea aboard the Korean Airlines because their health condition before departure was normal.
Other members who took the Garuda Indonesia flight were not infected with the flu, she added.
However, the good news was the group won the gold medal in the contest, Lita said.
