On April 15 and April 17, a novel swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus was identified in two epidemiologically unlinked patients in the United States. The same strain of the virus was identified in Mexico, Canada, and elsewhere. This report describes all confirmed cases in the United States through May 5 and delineates the associated clinical syndrome and key virology.
