The swine flu, now also known as the 2009 H1N1 flu, outbreak turning into a Pandemic now appears inevitable. 10 states in the U.S now have confirmed cases of the virus. U.S officials have announced plans to speed up plans for a vaccine for the influenza strain.

Of the 92 confirmed cases, 51 are in New York; 16 in Texas; 15 in California; two each in Massachusetts, Michigan and Kansas and one case in Arizona, Nevada, Indiana and Ohio.
