New Jersey Reports 6th Swine Flu Death

TRENTON (CBS) ― Six people have died from swine flu in New Jersey.

The state Health and Senior Services Department says the latest victim is a woman in her 40s from Bergen County who had underlying health conditions.

The five others in New Jersey who have died from the H1N1 virus include a 79-year-old Hudson County woman, a 36-year-old Union County man, a 15-year-old Somerset County boy, a 10-year-old Sussex County boy and a 49-year-old northern New Jersey man.

There are 609 confirmed cases of swine flu in every New Jersey county but Salem and Cape May.

The World Health Organization (WHO) raised the worldwide pandemic alert level to Phase 6 in response to the ongoing spread of the influenza A (H1N1) virus on June 11.
