Snippet:
A U.S. health official said at least five people are hospitalized with swine flu in the United States and deaths are likely.
"I fully expect we will see deaths from this infection," as swine flu cases are investigated, said Richard Besser, acting director of the federal Centers for Disease Control. He said he did not know about a newspaper report of two deaths in two southern California hospitals in which the victims seemed to be suffering from swine flu symptoms.

"I would say I'm very concerned," Besser said. "We are dealing with a new strain of influenza, we're dealing with a strain of influenza that appears to be moving through our community."

Based on the latest lab analysis, Besser said new flu infections are still occurring. He noted, however, that ordinary human flu accounts for about 36,000 deaths every year in the U.S.


Computer models from 2006 demonstrate how a virus could spread across the U.S. (short ad first):

It shows the difference between no intervention, tamiflu distributed, and air traffic controlled.
