CLOVIS, N.M. (AP) - Plains Regional Medical Center in Clovis will limit visitors younger than 15 years old in an effort to stop the swine flu.

The eastern New Mexico hospital announced the new visitation policy Friday.

The hospital also says visitors of all ages will be limited to two per patient at any one time.

There are exceptions for younger visitors. Those visiting hospice or dying patients and patients in the skilled nursing facility can still visit.

New Mexico health officials reported three new swine flu deaths Wednesday, bringing the state total to 12 this year.
