The latest international health scare, the swine flu, has begun to spread through the United States, with the number of reported cases mounting, but it has yet to hit Wisconsin.
According to Seth Boffeli, communications director for the state Department of Health Services, there have been no positive cases for the swine flu in Wisconsin so far. Ten Wisconsin residents have undergone tests for it, but the results were negative.
â??Itâ??s important to recognize that we donâ??t have an actual pandemic right now, weâ??re still in that preparation phase,â? said Sarah Van Orman, director of University Health Services.
