    Icon13 swine influenza from Mexico will not stop soon. Every day people die.

    Total people that are infected by the Mexican influenza:177,331
    People that have died because of the Mexican influenza: 1,265

    This is a wild guess, not completely correct of course.

    Black:confirmed death and infections
    Red:confirmed infections
    Yellow:unconfirmed infections

    *yawn*

    Stop spreading fear.

    Regular Flu deaths in US: 36,000 per year

    Hell, more people die in car accidents, from smoking, and recently in plane crashes than swine flu deaths. What's next? Donkey Flu?

    Edit:

    Here's what a real pandemic looks like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu

    Btw, my wife and I recently caught swine flu (we live in NYC) but we did not bother going to the hospital. Still alive. Obviously.

    It's a flu. We've had 20 or so deaths here, but we get around 3,000 a year from normal flus anyway. People with pre-existing medical conditions are the ones who have to worry. In fact I'm fairly sure someone in my town was confirmed as having it the other day.

    It's slightly more dangerous than regular flu and more infectious than it. But it is not that dangerous.
