A second case of H1N1 flu has been reported in Scotland as a toddler was struck down with the potentially deadly flu virus, local media reported on Tuesday. The 18-month-old boy from southern Scotland was admitted to Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary with symptoms. He was being treated in their children's ward, said hospital staff, without giving details of his condition, the online Herald Scotland reported. A 27-year-old woman from the same area was confirmed to have the disease on Sunday. Jennifer Scott, who was pregnant, has already been sent to a specialist hospital in Leicester in central England and remains in a critical condition.
