In addition to the one case of the H1N1 flu in Washoe County that was confirmed last week, two additional people in Washoe County have been confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as having the H1N1 flu, the Washoe County Health District announced at 10:30 a.m. today.
These people are relatives of the first confirmed case who had been in close contact with her. They are recovering.
There is one remaining specimen from a Washoe County resident not connected with the family mentioned above that was sent by the State Lab to the CDC last week that is being tested. We are still waiting for those test results to come back.
