Swine flu | 10 confirmed cases of flu to date in province, say health department officials
Two Fredericton women have tested positive for the H1N1 influenza virus.
A woman in her 50s from the Fredericton area is the 10th person in the province to receive confirmation of the virus though laboratory testing.
Dr. Eilish Cleary, chief medical officer of health, said people should expect to see more cases since a lot of travel happens in the summer.
Cleary said residents should wash their hands thoroughly and cover their mouths when coughing or sneezing.
"We remind New Brunswickers to continue to use preventative measures to help reduce the spread of the flu," she said Tuesday.
None of New Brunswick's H1N1 cases have involved severe symptoms or health risks.
Meghan Cumby, a spokeswoman for the Department of Health, said the other local woman was part of four cases announced late last week.
She said details about those cases weren't immediately available to reporters, but she can now confirm that one of the four cases involved a woman in her 40s from the Fredericton area.
The other three cases involved a male under 19 years of age from the Bathurst area, and a male and female under 19 years of age in the Moncton area.
The Department of Health recommends that anyone who's experiencing flu-like symptoms should minimize their contact with people and should visit their family doctor, a walk-in clinic, or the nearest hospital if those symptoms persist or worsen.
More information is available at the province's 24-hour H1N1 hotline at 1-800-580-0038, or at www.gnb.ca/flu.

Google Adrian Gibbs to see the 100 or hits on this.
He claims it was an accidental release so that is where I differ with him, but the fact remains this was created in a lab.
So to all that still believe that CNN, CBS, FOX, MSNBC, CTV, CBC report factual news...WAKE UP.
I told you a week ago and you ridiculed me. When you begin to realize that this is the eugenics at its finest, perpetrated by the NWO you may begin to wake from your fluoride-induced dream state.

PS VOR - this is no a mole hill. There are over 1 million infected Americans and it is a designer virus...designed to mutate, which has already been confirmed.

Maybe the term "Mad" refers to "crazy" !!!
“One of the simplest explanations is that it’s a laboratory escape,” Gibbs said in an interview with Bloomberg Television today. “But there are lots of others.” In other words, Gibbs is saying that the lab theory is just one of many possibilities.
"The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta has received the report and has decided there is no evidence to support Gibbs’s conclusion". Oh, but wait .... you're a conspiracy theorist, so the media can't be believed - that is, unless you think they back your claims.
More fluff and huff from the Ape.

Wake up Ape. It's a nice 134 page fictional story but about the only fact in there is that they spelled WHO correctly.
