There is also the first confirmed U.S. death from the new virus – a 23-month old toddler from Mexico who died in a Houston hospital. The child was from Mexico City and had traveled to Matamoros on a commercial flight with his family to visit relatives in Brownsville, Texas. His symptoms reportedly grew severe, and he was taken to Houston to seek medical treatment but later died.

The four new states that are reporting Swine Flu cases are Arizona, Massachusetts, Michigan and Nevada. Texas has reported that its total has now climbed to 16 cases, while New York has 51, and California has 14.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius told reporters on her first day at work following Senate confirmation Tuesday, that “we expect to see more cases, more hospitalizations, and, unfortunately, we are likely to see more deaths from the outbreak.“
