This whole H1N1 (swine flu) thing is blown way out of proportion. WHO now says there are only 7 H1N1 deaths all in Mexico. http://www.smh.com.au/world/only-7-swin ... -aml1.html
Every year, 36,000 people die in the USA from influenza of all kinds. When does that get reported? Yes, we get freaked out to think that viruses move from animal to human, but lots of organisms mutate from their original and can often come from all sorts of hosts. It just goes to show you that you can drum up fear from anything you want to.

Yup. 36,000 people every year die from influenza in the US. No news.

62 people die from a flu virus in Mexico. The whole world goes bananas.

BUT, I think we have to give President Obama credit for ordering the flu to be mild, and for backing that sucker down. It's obvious that, but for the hard work of the border patrol and DHS, we'd be overrun with this Mexican flu bug, and we'd all be dead.

My sentiments exactly.

We allow the media to control our very existence and how we react to the world around us.

I was hoping you or someone from the medical community would eventually post something on this?
