I know John.
36,000 people died of the flu this past year!
The news just loves this crap and I can't tell you how annoying it is!
it is like the weatherman...
"Big storm for the morning commute, tune in at eleven"... and once again a few flurries. Quick.. get Al Roker out on that street corner in his news 4 jacket and do a live remote of the storm... wow 2 inches of snow! What a hype the news makers are... As soon as something else becomes "big news", the swine flu will be put on the back burner.

I have a fully booked trip to Cancun in the near future and am just waiting it out. I hope it dies out as fast as it came....
COMING SOON!

To me, this appears to be a massive overreaction, and a HUGE portion of it is caused, not by the "Swine Flu", but by the modern day MEDIA HYPE!!!!!

Right on JBayMore, The last I heard 35,000 people died from the "Regular Flu" last year, but apparently that info ain't making the rounds. This is just aploy to get everyones mind off of the crummy economy, and that any day now the taliban might be in control of some nukes!

I don't like that the swine flu has been reported positive in Denmark. (Read it on vg.no) Denmark is so close, and there is a world chart from Google Maps showing everything: Place it has been positively reported, negativily, places it has killed - 15 % of those needles doesen't have a black dot, which confirms death due to swine flu.

A WHO-expert says swine flu is milder than both normal flu and bird flu, though.

Not to worry guys.... WHO has simply changed the name from Swine Flu to H1N1 virus, so every thing should be fine now.

Service patch, Sp flu 1
