    (AP) ? LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - The Arkansas Health Department says two more Arkansans have died of swine flu in the state.

    Spokesman Ed Barham says the two deaths bring the state's confirmed total to seven so far. Barham wouldn't release the ages, identities or locations of the victims, citing privacy concerns.

    Barham says the two new deaths do not include a Texas boy who died last month at a Little Rock hospital.

    Barham says it's important for people to realize that the flu is always serious and can be fatal. The state's first shipment of swine flu vaccine is expected to arrive Tuesday.
