Swine flu claims sixth U.S. victim

The swine flu claimed its sixth U.S. victim yesterday evening. A New York City man, 55, who was the assistant principal at the Susan B. Anthony Intermediate School, succumbed while undergoing care at the Flushing Hospital Medical Center. Mitchell Wiener was also suffering from other complications, a hospital spokesman said, but did not elaborate on what they were.

That brings to 76 the global death toll from swine flu.
