The South Dakota Health Department says there is a probable case of the swine flu.  The person is a Marshall County resident in the 30 to 39 age group who is recovering at home.

We do know that person was not hospitalized and is on home isolation for seven days.  The specimen is being sent to the centers for disease control and prevention for a final determination.

The department said they tested another 115 specimens today and all negative for the flu virus.
