Possible swine flu death announced; if confirmed, it's the third in El Paso
www.newspapertree.com...

The City of El Paso Department of Public Health today announced that the death of a 43-year-old El Paso County man on Thursday might be linked to the novel influenza A (H1N1).

The man died at a local hospital. Laboratory tests conducted before he passed away indicated he might have the novel flu virus. His influenza-like illness was identified as probable H1N1 case. Further laboratory tests are pending. It is not clear yet what role, if any, the H1N1 virus played in his death.

This is the third fatality in El Paso County this year investigated by the Department of Public Health. A 24-year-old woman died on May 24 and a 42-year-old man died on May 19. The epidemiological investigation into the first two deaths is ongoing.

H1N1 swine flu kills pregnant teen in Dominican Republic

SANTO DOMINGO - The first swine flu death was confirmed in the Dominican Republic on Friday, with a pregnant teenager becoming the first person to die of the virus in the Caribbean nation.

Secretary of Public Health Bautista Rojas Gomez announced the teen had died, making the Caribbean nation the sixth country to register a fatality from the A(H1N1) virus.

The teen "died at an assistance center in Santo Domingo from A(H1N1)," Rojas said.

Health authorities also confirmed 44 cases of the disease.

Last week officials rebuffed a Russian claim that the Caribbean island was underreporting its cases in a bid to boost tourism.
"We fear that in reality, the situation is very different," Gennady Onishchenko, Russia's chief sanitary inspector, told the Interfax news agency after Santo Domingo reported only two cases but a number of Russians were sickened after visiting the island.

Several earlier swine flu cases in South America, including Peru, were linked to people who traveled to the Dominican Republic.

1st fatality in the Caribbean that I'm aware of...please correct me if I'm wrong...

Swine flu victim 'left hungry for days'

A woman from the Tiwi Islands in the Northern Territory who has swine flu says she has been left in the dark by health authorities and went hungry for days because she is in quarantine.

The Health Department confirmed the swine flu case after Crystal Johnson, 35, contacted the ABC to talk about her condition.

Ms Johnson, who lives on Bathurst Island north of Darwin, says health authorities did not warn other residents the virus had arrived in the community.

She says she returned to Bathurst Island from a trip to Cairns last weekend and started to feel sick.

"I'm a chronic diabetic and it really affected me bad ... I had bad aches and pains in my joints," she said.

Ms Johnson says she met a lot of people on Monday before she went to the health clinic, and she is angry the community has not been told about the case.

"I don't want to be responsible ... if anyone passes away and things like that," she said.

"My community don't realise how it's a really bad flu and we live in a third world state here in the Northern Territory, up here on Bathurst Island."

She is now in quarantine and says she was hungry for three days because she could not leave her home.

Ms Johnson says she could not get food or call for help.

"I feel like I've been locked away in my own house," she said.

"For the last three days I didn't have any food. It was really hard for me to go outside and to actually get something to eat.

The origin of influenza A (H1N1)?

Where did the A (H1N1) flu come from? Residents of the Mexican town where the first case was diagnosed say that a US-owned factory just a few miles down the road, which produces 950,000 pigs a year, is to blame. A blogger from the area went to the factory to look into the conditions.

Interesting pics on the web site never seen them before.

Received 19 November 2008/Accepted 6 February 2009

So looking at the date on this report they were doing this not to long ago. Has to make you wonder?
