NH has 2nd 'probable case' of swine flu

April 30, 2009

CONCORD, N.H.—New Hampshire is reporting two "probable cases" of swine flu and a third "suspected case," all involving Concord Hospital employees.

Health officials say they haven't found any connection between the workers or evidence that they infected each other. The first probable case involves a woman who went for treatment immediately after feeling ill and has not been at the hospital since.

The second probable case is someone who may have been contagious at work, but health officials haven't found any signs that patients or visitors were infected.

Gov. John Lynch says both had mild symptoms and are recovering well.

The suspected case involves someone who has experienced flu-like symptoms but hasn't been tested yet.
