Good news on the grim topic: There's no swine flu in Claremont. The LA County Public Health Department announced this afternoon that the OLA student and her mother who fell ill over the weekend with flu-like symptoms tested negative for swine flu.
Classes at the private school will resume again tomorrow at OLA, according to an announcement from City Manager Jeff Parker at the city council meeting. Parker also said a group of Japanese visitors to the Double Tree Hotel decided to cancel their trip due to swine flu fears. The cancellation apparently lost the hotel a pretty penny.
According to some news reports, 3 private schools in California have closed down due to swine flu threats. One in Sacramento has 3 confirmed cases from students. No public schools have closed.
Thus far, there are 13 confirmed cases across the state, 3 in Sacramento, and 5 each in San Diego and Imperial counties.
