First Swine Flu- Related Death Confirmed in Northwest
May 9, 2009 10:50 PM EDT
OLYMPIA, Wash.-- According to the Washington State Department of Health, a Snohomish County man in his 30s with underlying heart conditions died last week with what appears to be complications of swine-origin influenza (H1N1). This is the first death in Washington associated with the new flu strain.
While this marks the first death in this state related to swine flu, the case counts are expected to continue rising for some time to come.
Health officials say an additional 18 cases of swine flu have been confirmed in Washington, bringing the state's total to 101. The state Department of Health said Saturday that another 19 cases are considered probable for swine flu. There are still no probable or confirmed cases in Benton, Franklin, or Walla Walla counties.

Re: US Swine Flu Death #3: Washington State
The denial that this flu is not a threat r a reduced threat never ceases to amaze me!! I guess most will wake up when the death toll increases, which is a shame.
Case and point: Swine flu threat fades - for now-- http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...BAI917HBBD.DTL

Re: US Swine Flu Death #3: Washington State
I'm frustrated also with this worldwide "the patient already had underlying health conditions ..."
There are many, many, humans with such formulation over the 60 or even previous.
The percent of seasonal flu vaccines quantities is mainly digit by the percents of chronic ilnessed/old/...
So, now became normal that an "mild" outcome of serious concequences from this bug could afect maybe 10% of the population - the "chronic/underlaying conditions" ones, etc.

Re: US Swine Flu Death #3: Washington State
UPDATE:
Swine flu-related death in WA state
01:02 PM PDT on Sunday, May 10, 2009
By KING5.com and Associated Press
The man, who was in his 30s, started showing symptoms on April 30, said Goldbaum. He was prescribed anti-retroviral medication, but died on May 6.
An autopsy shows the man died from viral pneumonia, likely brought on by the flu virus, doctors said.
Doctors say none of the man's family members have shown any symptoms, and they're not sure how he contracted the disease; he had not been to Mexico recently.

Re: US Swine Flu Death #3: Washington State

Associated Press - May 10, 2009 8:35 PM ET
SEATTLE (AP) - A day after Washington state health officials announced the state's first case of a swine flu-related death, they increased the number of confirmed cases in the state to 127, an increase of 26 from Saturday.
Another 19 cases are considered probable, the state Department of Health said Sunday.
The new figures Sunday come one day after health officials announced that a man in his 30s who lived in Snohomish County died on May 6 from complications associated with swine flu. He was the third case in the United States believed to have died with swine flu as a factor.
The swine flu has been blamed for 53 deaths worldwide, including 48 in Mexico, three in the U.S., one in Canada and one in Costa Rica.
