Posted: Tuesday, 03 November 2009 5:43PM Western NY Child Dies of Swine Flu |
|
Health officials in Genesee County have linked a child's death to swine flu. Interim Health Director Randolph Garney would only identify the victim as a school-age child with confirmed H1N1 influenza. He declined to release the child's age or school district Tuesday. In neighboring Erie County, tests were being conducted to determine whether a 15-year-old Amherst High School student who died on Sunday had the virus. Chelsea Oliver was admitted to a Buffalo hospital two days before she died of pneumonia. On Monday, health officials in Albany and Warren counties reported two swine flu deaths: an adolescent who died of complications related to a long-term illness last week and an adult who died at Glens Falls Hospital on Saturday. |
