CDC Confirms Local Swine Flu Case

Item: CDC confirms one swine flu case in Idaho: 10 more probable cases reported in Washington/SR, AP

More Info: According to the Panhandle Health District, the woman became ill after a recent trip to Texas. She has been recovering at home. The woman, who represents the first confirmed case of swine flu in Idaho, is retired and has had limited contact with other people since she began feeling ill, health district officials said. Spokane Health District spokeswoman Julie Graham said Sunday there has been no such confirmation for the two probable cases in Spokane County.

Question: Are you more/less concerned about the swine flu outbreak today than you were a week ago?
