INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indiana State Department of Health has shut down its swine flu hot line that it started up last fall.
State Health Commissioner Gregory Larkin says the agency continues to monitor the illness and will reactivate the special line if it receives more calls or swine flu activity increases significantly.
The health department has recorded 39 swine flu-related deaths in Indiana since June and says that the frequency of the illness has receded along with the decline in fatal cases.
Larkin cautioned that the swine flu has not gone away, and urges vaccination, especially for pregnant women, people with certain health conditions and those 65 and older.
