Grand Forks, N.D. (AP) The state Health Department says North Dakota has its second Flu death.

Influenza surveillance coordinator Michelle Feist (FYST) says the victim was a woman over 60 in the northwestern part of the state who had an underlying medical condition.

The department has now confirmed 3,139 influenza cases in North Dakota, up 184 over the past week.

Feist says the state continues to see weekly shipments of swine flu vaccine, but it could be January before Immunization clinics target the general population.
