The number of people who've died of the H1N1 swine flu in Colorado has climbed to 14, including six children and teenagers, the state health department said today.
About 175 people were hospitalized with the flu last week and more than 180 people were hospitalized the week prior, the most so far.
H1N1 vaccine arrived in the state this week and is being given to health care workers.
At The Children's Hospital in Aurora yesterday, dozens of doctors, nurses and other staff lined up for H1N1 and seasonal flu immunizations. Several other hospitals also were immunizing workers. More vaccine for the general public is expected to arrive in the coming weeks.
