Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 - update 61
6 August 2009

The breakdown of the number of laboratory-confirmed cases is given in this map.

Cumulative number of global laboratory-confirmed cases = 177,457 (1462 deaths)

WHO has a very cool interface map as well...which requires Flash. The numbers are a little behind, but it gives a very cool overall.
