Lowell Siblings Have Swine Flu: Swine Flu Confirmed in Massachusetts

Two Lowell siblings who traveled to Mexico have tested positive for swine flu, marking the disease's first confirmed case in Massachusetts. The boys, ages 8 and 10, have not been to school since returning from Mexico, so it is not likely the virus has spread from them to classmates. Deval Patrick will give a press conference on the matter later this morning.
