Re: Are you concerned about the Swine Flu?

I just read on the news today that out of the Mexican deaths reported so far only seven are confirmed to be from swine Flu as oppossed to the 150+ they were using before. I guess 150+ were suspected but now they are changing the wording. I guess the rest are from the regular flu which kills about 36000 each year in the US.

It's interesting how this bug kills you or so I read.

You get the bug and if you are healthy your body goes crazy against this new virus. Your body starts to secerete mucus cells in your respiratory system to try to kill it. It eventually overwhelms your lungs making it hard to breath and then you die.

Not to mention that the toddler was actually a Mexican that came to the US to try and get treatment.
