Douglas County health officials say another person sickened by H1N1 has died.

Health officials said Monday that a Douglas County man who was more than 50 years old died Saturday. The man, who had an underlying health condition, had been hospitalized for six days and tested positive for H1N1 last week.

No other details were immediately released.

Friends identified the man as 58-year-old John Bernardi, an Omaha library branch manager. Funeral services will be held Wednesday.

Seven other deaths connected to the flu strain have been reported by state and local health officials. All seven had underlying medical conditions that officials said may have contributed to their deaths.
