6 probable swine flu cases found in Md.

Maryland officials say the state has its first probable cases of swine flu, including two among public school students.

Tests are being performed on samples from six people, with results expected Thursday.

Three of the probable cases are in Anne Arundel County and three are in Baltimore County. One involves a student at Folger McKinsey Elementary School in Severna Park, which is in Anne Arundel. The other student is a high schooler at Milford Mill Academy in Baltimore County.

Gov. Martin O’Malley says none of the six have had to be hospitalized and all are recovering.

The cases involve people who traveled to areas where there are swine flu cases. Some of the sick people made those trips, while others who have fallen ill are the travelers’ relatives.
