My comments - There were 54 deaths in NYC and 31 deaths in NYS as of 8/31/09, for a total of 85. Since 9/1/09, there have been 11 deaths reported in NYC and 44 deaths reported in NYS for a total this season of 55. However, because NYC reports pediatric deaths to NYS, any NYC pediatric deaths will be reflected in both reports since the current reporting format was initiated this season. Based on media reports, there has been one pediatric death in NYC since 9/1/09, meaning that the total deaths for NY are 85 + 55 - 1 = 139 through Week 47. Deaths reported since last Friday will be reflected in the FT total as well.
