BATAVIA (AP) -- Health officials in Genesee County have linked a child's death to swine flu.

Interim Health Director Randolph Garney would only identify the victim as a school-age child with confirmed H1N1 influenza. He declined to release the child's age or school district Tuesday.

In neighboring Erie County, tests were being conducted to determine whether a 15-year-old Amherst High School student who died on Sunday had the virus. Chelsea Oliver was admitted to a Buffalo hospital two days before she died of pneumonia.

On Monday, health officials in Albany and Warren counties reported two swine flu deaths: an adolescent who died of complications related to a long-term illness last week and an adult who died at Glens Falls Hospital on Saturday.
