The Saskatchewan government has announced two more deaths linked to H1N1 swine flu, bringing the total to 11.

The latest fatalities involve two women between the ages of 40 and 65, health officials told reporters Tuesday morning at the legislature.

Both women had underlying health conditions, as did the other nine people who have died since the pandemic strain of the flu virus emerged in the spring.

Officials are investigating one more death that they suspect could be related to H1N1.

Saskatchewan is in the middle of a mass vaccination program, with the goal of giving everybody a H1N1 shot.

The Ministry of Health said last month it expects as many as 200,000 Saskatchewan people could get the flu this year, but in the vast majority of cases people will experience only mild symptoms.
