FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13 - July 31

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+

Nebraska victim identified:

Based on death notices and other information, The World-Herald learned that the victim was Deb Smith, 56, of Broken Bow. Smith, who worked during the day at a Broken Bow bank and in the evening as a bartender at the Broken Bow Country Club, died Saturday. Her funeral is today.

Dr. Joann Schaefer, the state's chief medical officer, said the Custer County woman, whom Schaefer and other authorities declined to name, had heart disease and chronic lung disease. Schaefer said H1N1 worsened her underlying medical conditions.

State health officials said the lab confirmation of H1N1 came after the woman's death.

Dr. Tom Safranek, the state's epidemiologist, said the patient was first in the Broken Bow hospital, then taken to a Lincoln hospital and moved to a second Lincoln hospital.

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+

These updates push me to 55.2% with no underlying conditions.

http://tinyurl.com/h1n1deaths

I found a new article today about New York #65, the 3rd death in Onondaga County, which says that the person had underlying conditions, so I updated our details list. That probably doesn't change your chart a whole heck of a lot, but just so you know.


Thebes, thanks I added Deb Smith's details to our list:

NE #1 Custer County, Broken Bow 56 year old woman Deb Smith died 7/12/09 reported 7/15/09 *several chronic underlying health conditions such as heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, first admitted to Broken Bow hospital, then transferred to two different hospitals in Lincoln

When you update the list of all deaths, if you could highlight that so I can figure out where to make the change. Thanks! :)

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+

I'm counting 6 listings for El Paso, the details on this one are new. I'll add it to the list I just posted above ^^

I checked back w/the website. Texas is reporting 6 El Paso deaths in June, and 2 in May. If there was a death in July it would be number 7 as reported.

I swear this is getting more difficult every day to keep straight!

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+

Appleblossom,

According to the 7/14 Florida EPI Surveillance report, Florida is not counting the 19-yr-old woman visiting from PA. So, with that exception, our count agrees with their's. Neither their report, nor our list includes the 22-yr-old male from Sarasota County posted by MedTroll. So, with that, we have a total of 14 and Florida will have a total of 13. The universe is stable once again. :D

Just a couple of updates

The latest MD death (#3 in the state) had underlying health issues

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/16/AR2009071601827.html

and here's more on the latest Connecticut death

WATERBURY, Conn. - Hospital officials in Waterbury say a chronically ill patient has become the seventh person to die of swine flu in Connecticut.

Health officials say the patient, between the ages of 80 and 89, died Tuesday at Saint Mary's Hospital.

Five of the state's swine flu deaths have been in Waterbury.

Health officials say there have been underlying medical conditions in all Connecticut swine flu deaths.

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+

Am I reading this wrong or is WHO now recommending that only "clusters of deaths" be reported?

H1N1 Pandemic Spreading Too Fast to Count: WHO

http://www.flutrackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=116157

The World Health Organization (WHO) said on Thursday that the H1N1 flu pandemic was the fastest-moving pandemic ever and that it was now pointless to count every case.

The United Nations agency, which declared an influenza pandemic on June 11, revised its requirements so that national health authorities need only report clusters of severe cases or deaths caused by the new virus or unusual clinical patterns...

...all countries should still closely monitor unusual clusters of severe or fatal infections from the pandemic virus, clusters of respiratory illness requiring hospitalization or unexplained or unusual clinical patterns.


If that's the new policy then this fatality count is going to get shut down from lack of information just like the confirmed case counts have.
