WHO: 40 Swine Flu Cases In The US

 

# 3062

 

 

The Associated Press is reporting a doubling of US Swine Flu confirmed cases, but the CDC website as of this posting has not been updated to reflect those totals.  

 

The CDC has stated they would update once a day, and so we will probably get confirmation later.  

 

Although the CDC numbers may lag behind the media, I am generally more comfortable using their tally’s.

 

More cases were expected, and so these numbers are likely to change by the hour. 

 

 

 

 

WHO: 40 confirmed swine flu cases in US, no deaths

GENEVA (AP) -- The World Health Organization says there are now 40 confirmed cases of swine flu in the United States and that it "very concerned" about the disease's spread.

 

WHO says none of the cases in the U.S. have been fatal.

 

But the U.N. agency says it could decide in a matter of hours whether to raise its pandemic alert level as a result of the increasing number of confirmed swine flu cases in Mexico and elsewhere.

 

 

Meanwhile, we are waiting on word from the WHO meeting, ongoing in Geneva, as to any change in the pandemic alert level.
