Two more H1N1 deaths in NYC
NEW YORK - NEW York City's health commissioner says two more deaths have been linked to H1N1 flu.

Dr Thomas Frieden said on Tuesday that a 41-year-old woman from Queens and a 34-year-old man from Brooklyn have died.

That's a total of four in the city since the outbreak started last month.

Twenty city schools reopened on Tuesday, a week after an assistant principal at an intermediate school became the city's first victim of swine flu, or the H1N1 virus.

Over the weekend, a woman in her 50s died.

She was the city's second H1N1 flu victim. -- AP
