Two more meningitis cases in NH, nationally 233 people are infected, health officials say


"New Hampshire health officials Tuesday reported two more cases of fungal meningitis linked to medications produced by New England Compounding Center, the now-closed Framingham, Mass., speciality pharmacy at the heart of the national outbreak.
This brings the number of confirmed cases in New Hampshire to six, according to the state’s Department of Health and Human Services. The department said the two latest patients are not hospitalized but are under medical care."
