MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Wisconsin health officials say the state may not have seen the last of swine flu.
The state Department of Health Services confirmed more than 2,600 cases in November and December, but the outbreak has faded since, with only 112 cases confirmed between January and mid-March. Still, pandemics historically come in three waves, experts say, and a third has yet to strike.
Tom Haupt is the state influenza coordinator. He says state health officials will watch closely for signs of swine flu after college students return from spring break.
He says the state has plenty of vaccine and officials are reviewing lessons from the past year so they can communicate better.
