"As other Canadian jurisdictions have recorded cases of H1N1 influenza, we anticipated it would be only a matter of time before Newfoundland and Labrador recorded its first case," Dr. Faith Stratton, the province's chief medical officer of health, said in a release Saturday evening. The case involves a sample collected from a young adult male who was treated Thursday at the hospital in Grand Falls-Windsor. Public health officials confirmed the case Saturday. More than 3,500 cases of swine flu have been reported in Canada since the outbreak was first reported in April.
