A public health emergency is declared as a precaution, officials say. Twenty swine flu cases have been found in the U.S. Canada reports six. In Mexico, the flu death toll has climbed to 86.
Swine flu is "serious enough to be a great concern to this White House and to this government," White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said on NBC'S "Meet the Press," adding that President Obama is receiving frequent updates on the situation."We are taking the proper precautions to address anything that happens," Gibbs said. "It's not a time to panic."
