The swine flu virus has claimed its first victim in the UK, after a female patient died in a Scottish hospital. The patient, who had underlying health problems, was one of 10 people being treated for swine flu in the greater Glasgow area. The death is the first outside the Americas, where more than 140 people have died since the pandemic began. Correspondent James Cook reports on the scale of the problem in Scotland and Professor John Oxford, virologist at Queen Mary University, London debates the implications of the death.
