LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas health officials today have confirmed a new case of swine flu in Arkansas.

The confirmation in Pulaski County brings to three the number of Arkansans who have tested positive for the H1N1 virus, state Health Department spokeswoman Anne Wright said.

The other confirmed cases have been in Lawrence and Saline counties, she said, adding that all three people have recovered from the flu.

Four other cases of the flu, confirmed in National Guard airmen at Camp Robinson in North Little Rock, have also been reported, but those were contracted out-of-state, she said.
