It is too early to declare that the peak of the global swine flu pandemic is over, the World Health Organisation said Wednesday.
"The director-general decided that it was appropriate not to make any changes in the current pandemic phases right now," said Keiji Fukuda, special advisor to WHO chief Margaret Chan on pandemic influenza.
The decision comes a day after the WHO's emergency committee of experts recommended against the UN health agency declaring that the peak of the pandemic is over.
