In The Region: Ohio has confirmed its first death, caused, at least in part, by the latest variant of swine flu. A 61 year old Madison County woman has died, after having direct contact with pigs at the Ross County Fair. |
The latest version of the flu, which health officials have labeled H3N2v, has been around for a couple years now, but Ohio Health Department spokeswoman Tess Pollock says this is the first confirmed death from this variant in the entire country.
This flu is usually NOT deadly, but Pollock says the woman who died from the flu had already been weakened by multiple other underlying medical conditions. Pollock says “there’s no need to panic, no need for alarm.”
The 102 Ohio cases of H3N2v flu this year represent more than a third of all the cases nationwide.
