H1N1...doesn't deseerve to be called Flu

On Average, over the Past 5 to 10 years .... 32,000 people die from the FLU in the United States each year. If we have a Six-Month FLU season ...that's 5,300 persons who Die each month. And that's from a wide variety of FLUs... N O T including H1N1 FLU.

Thru May 2009, here in Minnesota, only Two people have Died from Complications involving the H1N1 FLU. Both had other serious medical conditions before they caught the FLU.

The Press has Flogged this FLU event in order to sell more Newspapers and increase Watchers and Listeners to the Radio and Television. And that has been very successful for them. They scared the Crap out of people who were too lazy to find out what was actually going on.

W H O called it a Pandemic. The Press never made a strong explanation of what a Pandemic means. It does not mean lots of Victims and lots of Deaths ! Pandemic involves geography and does not have anything to do with the rate of sickness and death due to a FLU. All it means is
there has been One confirmed case of the FLU in a certain number of Countries around the world.

Did you know ... if there was One case of H1N1 FLU in each of 50 countries that could be called a Pandemic. That's just 50 people with the FLU. Period !

And the 32,000 people who Die in the USA each year...from the FLU ... but NOT the H1N1 FLU ...
are not enough to cause the W H O to Issue a Pandemic Warning. They have said Zero about that
rate of death for the past ten years. 320,000 people died here in the U.S. and no one has said a thing. Does anyone but me find this disconcerting ? Or is it just Business as Usual ?
