BUTLER Co., Ohio (WDTN) - More cases of the swine flu were confirmed Monday by state health officials.

The Ohio Department of Health says there are fourteen cases connected to the Butler County Fair.

One case is now confirmed in Clark County as a result of exposure at the Ohio State Fair.

Luckily, none of the illnesses required hospitalization. The victims range in age from three to 36-years old.

ODH continues to work with county fair officials to control swine flu. It reminds fair-goers to wash your hands frequently and never eat or drink after touching an animal.

It also encourages everyone to watch for signs of illness in their animals and report anything suspicious.
