This is because those sources come from different medias (which may have used different sources at the same time) and from different dates.

Nevada death
Bingo!
http://www.southernnevadahealthdistrict.org/press_releases/2009/061609.html
Public Health Update - H1N1 Influenza
June 16, 2009
The Southern Nevada Health District received confirmation of 57 novel H1N1 cases in Clark County, as of Friday, June 12. The health district posts updated case counts weekly, each Tuesday before noon. The next update will be posted Tuesday, June 23. To date, the severity of illness caused by the novel H1N1 virus is similar to seasonal flu. This case count includes four novel H1N1-confirmed samples from school children who were tested on Tuesday, June 9, to identify if an increase in absenteeism at a Clark County elementary school was caused by influenza or another virus.
On Friday, June 12, the health district reported the first novel H1N1-related death in Clark County. The patient was a 70-year-old woman and a New York resident. Her illness was identified shortly after her arrival in Las Vegas and she was hospitalized shortly after. Because this patient is a resident of another state, she is not included in the confirmed novel H1N1 case count for Nevada, but would be included the case count for New York State.
Only one death in Nevada!

A reference was listed beside the NY deaths for nearly a week prior to 2-3 days ago to the NV State Health Dept. Since then it has been removed. I do not know whether or not the actual death number was removed. The only way for it to make since is that the woman was from NYC and it was counted under the 32 deaths there. I found somewhere online that she was the 17th (?) death in NY state. So if it was added, it was a while ago. But I am in the dark, too. CaninePitDog (talk) 18:47, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Update: Based on what I've looked at through the edits of the template, your addition of the NY death is correct. It was first added under NY, someone deleted it and moved it to Nevada and left the reference. The reference was left there for a while and someone deleted it without removing another NY death. So I think it is all good. CaninePitDog (talk) 18:58, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Argentina death count
I've not touched the death count, and the revert goes to the number of confirmed cases. 100K is an estimate and not lab-confirmed. :-) - Xavier Fung (talk) 18:19, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
- This report from Xinhua refers to the 6th death case in Thailand. - Xavier Fung (talk) 18:37, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
Re: 2009 flu pandemic / Argentina
WP:SYN states we should not combine multiple sources to justify statements that aren't found in any source. This is because those sources come from different medias (which may have used different sources at the same time) and from different dates. I would prefer if the numbers were detailed in the 2009 flu pandemic in Argentina article, while the {{2009 flu pandemic table}} contained a link to it, like the USA numbers. I don't like the idea of combining numbers, but if you are going to do it, at least the Argentina article could be updated regularly and be the main focus of the updates, and not this table. -- ReyBrujo (talk) 13:27, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
