3rd swine flu wave begins in usa

After staying low for awhile, the number of H1N1 cases is slowly climbing again, said Dr. Zack Moore, an epidemiologist with the N.C. Division of Public Health.

Were starting to see an upswing on college campuses in the last week or two, Moore said.

(The first wave) was a very big wave, and it definitely affected students and young people more than the seasonal flu, Moore said.

Its possible that the numbers could climb as high as they were last fall, but there is no way to predict that now, he said.
