Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | Ohio lost a 14 year old in Columbus today to the H1N1 Virus. He has been on life support for a few days, but lost his battle. This is a very serious Virus. The Vaccine has been delivered but for us older ones, in order to get the shot, you have to have a chronic disease. THat is up to 64 yrs of age. THis ypoung boy and the 20 yr old that gave birth before she died are the 2 in Ohio that we know about so far.
