Re: Indiana/Ohio: Doctors investigating H1N1 deaths of man and his sister
The bold statement is a little bizarre. We know they're father lives with them, as he was suspected to be infected with H1N1 also. I hope the bold statement doesn't imply that he too is hospitalized somewhere. An earlier post in this thread indicated that he had recovered. I suspect the bold statement is simply the result of Katrina being a source for the reporter, and Mark not.

An Indiana woman diagnosed with H1N1, or swine, flu died Monday at University Hospital. Officials there confirmed the death of 26-year-old Mindy McIntosh, but said an autopsy will be performed before the cause of death is known.
“She was doing fine, then she took a turn for the worst,” said Greg Reynolds, a nursing supervisor at the hospital.
McIntosh’s brother, Matthew McIntosh, 19, died July 5 from the virus at University Hospital after collapsing near a barn at his family’s home.
The siblings, who live at home with their mother in Dillsboro fell ill in late June.
It is unclear how they contracted the disease since they did not travel out of the country or were exposed to anyone else with the virus.
