  We have 36,000 deaths from influenza on a seasonal basis so this influenza does cause death and it's not unusual," said Dr. Ann Marie Kimball, Professor of Epidemiology and Health Services at the University of Washington.
  
  The victim was a Snohomish County man in his mid 30s with an underlying heart condition. He first showed symptoms of the virus on April 30 and was given anti-viral medication.. But doctors say he developed viral pneumonia and died on May 6.
  ...
  "It really is a very easily transmittable virus it's moving all over the world and we're getting to know it's the usual spectrum of illness related to influenza," said Kimball.
  
  A crew member aboard the Royal Caribbean ship "Serenade of the Seas" tested positive for the H1N1 virus when the ship made a stop in Seattle last week on its way to Alaska. She was given Tamiflu and is being isolated until she recovers.

  "I think the value of those plans is being shown," said Dr. Ann Marie Kimball, a professor of public heath and medicine at the University of Washington.
  
  "What you saw our local health officials doing was revising the steps they were taking in light of the information they were receiving," she said.
  ...
  That sort of agile change in response is what you hope to see, Kimball said.
  
  "What you didn't want to see is people taking a plan off the shelf and doing it exactly like the plan said no matter what," she said.

  Ann Marie Kimball, Professor of Epidemiology and Health Services at the University of Washington. "In any given flu season, patients can and will die from the virus."
  
  Officials will continue to focus on the swine flu virus, figuring out not just how it transmits and why it is striking now, but what to do next.
  
  "Health officials have to prepare for the upcoming flu season in the fall. That means they have to make decisions now on what kind of vaccine should be prepared," said Kimball, who expects those decisions to be made by the first of June.
