President Elson Floyd said the number of WSU flu cases reported in the media in comparison to other universities is misleading, because WSU's reports count all cases reported this semester--including those that did not test positive for H1N1. "Other universities may be using reporting systems that include only positive influenza tests or those who actually come to their clinics with influenza-like illness, which would tend to underestimate the number of cases," Floyd said.
