Eighth swine flu case confirmed in ACT
June 06, 2009 06:25pm

A 19-year-old man is the latest to test positive to the swine flu in Canberra, taking the number of ACT cases to eight.
The man tested positive when he visited the territory's Influenza Assessment Centre, which was set up at one of ACT's hospitals just days ago to deal with influenza testing.

"He is not a contact of another confirmed ACT case," a statement from ACT Health says.

The number of swine flu cases has risen nationally to more than 1000. Most of them are in Victoria.
