A Mexican toddler died of swine flu while visiting relatives in the United States earlier this week, officials confirmed Wednesday.

The 23-month-old child died at a Houston hospital Monday evening.

Houston health official David Persse said the child first fell ill while visiting relatives in Brownsville, Texas, more than two weeks ago.

Well this was to be expected... and also as expected there were BREAKING NEWS banners as I woke up and turned on the News

No, not the three month old, RIP, the death. More will come. Not being ghoulish, being factual, very different. Sad that one has to put this disclaimer in this place where MOST people are mature, but some are simply NOT mature enough to deal with bad news.
