WINNIPEG – Dr. Elise Weiss, Manitoba’s acting chief medical officer, confirmed this afternoon that two more cases of H1N1 flu had been diagnosed in the province, bringing Manitoba’s total to 40.

One of the new cases is a male in Winnipeg and the other is in the area of northern Manitoba covered by the Burntwood Regional Health Authority.

St. Theresa Point, where many residents are ill with flu-like symptoms, is in the Burntwood Region. The chief of St. Theresa Point is holding a press conference this afternoon to discuss the number of confirmed cases of H1N1 flu in the northern community.

The meeting with Chief David McDougall was slated for 2 p.m. at the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs office on St. Mary Avenue.

McDougall said Wednesday that 20 residents of his community have been flown to Winnipeg suffering flu symptoms, including nearly a dozen children. Two women are in critical condition.
