MINNEAPOLIS - Minnesota health officials have announced two more probable cases of swine flu, both connected to a Minneapolis high school.
Officials say the probable cases were identified at Southwest High. The school is staying open.
Minnesota now has one confirmed case and 11 probable cases. More tests are necessary to see whether the probable cases are in fact swine flu.
Health officials earlier this week backed away from recommending that schools with swine flu cases be closed, saying the virus was acting like ordinary seasonal flu.
