New Jersey is setting up a hot line for residents worried about swine flu.
Health Commissioner Heather Howard will announce details about the call center this afternoon.
The state is still waiting for test results from five probable cases. They are expected back from the federal Center for Disease Control and Prevention today.
Meanwhile, additional cases of suspected swine flu have been submitted to the state lab for testing. State health officials caution that just because a doctor sends a specimen for testing doesn't mean it's a "probable" swine flu case.
The health department says all cases submitted to the state lab are tested within five to seven hours.
