New Zealand : Waikato flu death

From Waikato Times, another fatality due to H1N1 :

" Swine flu has claimed its first Waikato victim this year following the death of a 53-year-old man earlier this week.

The man, who had no known pre-existing health conditions, was one of three swine flu-related deaths reported to the Health Ministry this week.

So far this year there have been nine deaths linked to swine flu with six confirmed as swine flu. Since Monday there have been three deaths in the Waitemata, Auckland and Waikato DHB areas, all confirmed as swine flu."
