"WASHINGTON An estimated 10,000 people including 1,100 children died of swine flu in the United States in the seven months after the new strain of flu was first detected in April, a top US health official said Thursday.
"By November 14th, many times more children and younger adults unfortunately have been hospitalized or killed by H1N1 influenza than happens in a usual flu season," Thomas Frieden, head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told reporters.
AFP: 10,000 swine flu deaths in US: estimates
On par/ I think this is MILD Compared to the deaths of the Spanish FLU that killed 25+ Million worldwide in 1918
Did you know that H1N1 is RELATED to the flu of 1918/1919?
Bet you didn't.
Regardless? This was all HYPE by government. Sorry that you caught it, regret some died from it. but the thing is as you pointed out is to STAY HOME if infected, or suspected.
My point was to point out that what;'s the Difference? Stay HOME and AWAY from folks if SICK? And this was NO WHERE NEAR that of 1918...or other 'PANDEMICS". Common Snese is the RULE of the DAY.
