The health bureau of eastern Jiangsu province said three women and a retired man from different cities in the province were all critically ill with the H7N9 virus, a diagnosis confirmed by the provincial disease prevention centre. The cases are the second batch to be confirmed after three in Anhui province and nearby Shanghai on Sunday.
