Baby of woman with Swine Flu dies

Last Update: 12:30 pm

WEST PALM BEACH,FL-- A local woman in intensive care at Wellington Regional Medical Center has lost her baby during her battle with Swine Flu.

According to a statement from Wellington Regional Medical Center:

The decision was made early this morning to deliver Aubrey Opdyke?s baby. Despite heroic efforts on the part of physicians and nurses, we are sad to announce that Baby Parker Christine Updyke has expired.

Mrs. Opdyke remains in critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit at Wellington Regional Medical Center. Employees and medical staff extend their prayers and deepest sympathy to the entire Updyke family.

The Opdyke family requests that their privacy be respected during this difficult time.

I'm not sure how the State of Florida will deal with this death, but we had an earlier discussion that if a baby was delivered in such circumstances (thus receiving a birth certificate) and then died (death certificate issued), it would make sense to count the death.

Any further thoughts?
