The Associated Press
CAPE MAY, N.J. - The Coast Guard says two recruits at its training center in southern New Jersey have tested positive for swine flu, while 23 others at the base have been isolated with flu-like symptoms.
Coast Guard officials say the two recruits have recovered and resumed their eight-week basic training program at the Cape May facility.
Meanwhile, the 23 recruits and base staff members with symptoms are being tested for the virus.
Officials say they're allowing other recruits to get more sleep and supplementing their meals with an evening snack in an effort to ensure their health and guard against further spread of the virus.
