GUANGZHOU: A school in south China's Guangdong Province was closed Wednesday after 11 students were confirmed as A(H1N1) cases, local authorities said.

The children from the same class in the Beijiao Center Primary School of Pengjiang District, Jiangmen City, were tested positive for A(H1N1) Tuesday. The result was confirmed Wednesday by the provincial Center for Disease Prevention and Control, according to the provincial health department.

The authorities decided to close the school for a week and have quarantined those in close contact with the patients.

All the patients were in stable condition, doctors said.
