MEXICO City officials on Thursday fully lifted health restrictions imposed last month when the deadly H1N1 flu virus first spread shockwaves throughout the country, particularly in the capital.
The A(H1N1) virus has killed 75 in Mexico and infected 3,817 people, according to the health ministry.
The website of the the sprawling capital dropped its five-level alert to the lowest level green on Thursday, signaling that schools, businesses and transport could function as normal, without extra health precautions.
Most children returned to school last week across the country, while a handful of states with suspected cases waited until this week to re-open, as officials assured the public that the virus is on the wane.
'We can calm down now,' said Mexico City Mayor Marcelo Ebrard in a news conference.
