MIAMI (CBS4) ―

There have been nine new deaths in the state of Florida caused by the H1N1 swine flu; four of them in Miami-Dade County, the Florida Department of Health announced Wednesday.

The victims in Miami-Dade were a 45-year-old female, a 53-year-old male, a 60-year-old male and a 65-year-old male.

In addition, a 27-year-old female in Osceola County, a 28-year-old female in Hillsborough County, a 25-year-old female and 70-year-old female in Orange County and a 53-year-old male in Lee County have died from H1N1.

"Our hearts and prayers go out to the family and friends of these individuals," said Surgeon General Dr. Ana Viamonte Ros. "H1N1 Swine Flu, like seasonal flu, can in some circumstances be very serious, therefore, all of us should continue to adhere to good health practices including, stay home if sick, cover cough and sneeze, and wash hands frequently."

There have been 41 confirmed H1N1 Swine Flu deaths in the state of Florida.

The World Health Organization (WHO) alert level is at Phase 6 "pandemic." The pandemic status is based on geographic distribution and not the severity of swine flu. In effect the WHO is saying that swine flu H1N1 is now circulating world-wide.

Again, in order to avoid spreading the disease, people with respiratory illness should stay home. Avoid close contact with people who are coughing or otherwise appear ill. Also, wash your hands frequently and use sanitizer to lessen the spread of respiratory illness.

I updated the Florida database. This brings the total deaths in Florida to 45.
