Just to calm everybody down, current numbers say that if you catch swine flu, you only have a 94% chance of surviving (100% if you aren`t in Mexico). And this:

Can I get swine influenza from eating or preparing pork?
No. Swine influenza viruses are not spread by food. You cannot get swine influenza from eating pork or pork products. Eating properly handled and cooked pork products is safe.

They should have added one showing the typical racist response of "Mexican Pig fuckers fault" or some such tripe :)

^ Yes, people die every year from the flu. However nothing like this type of virus has happened since the Spanish flu in 1918. This type of flu, like the Spanish flu, has a tendency to kill those of us who are young adults rather than the "usual" targets of infection like the very young(kids) and the elderly. This is thought to occur because of a type of perpetual "over-reaction" of the immune system called a cytokine storm. This, plus the added fact that the virus has been shown to be easily transmissible from person-to-person makes makes this virus a type of virus that could *potentially* be quite deadly to much of the worlds population.

The actual mortality rates will be incomparable tho, considering how few people have caught it, and also the potential size of the outbreak.

Swine Flu is basically a mild form of the flu. People who have died from it were already ill or just recovering from some illness.

Only people who think it is the end of the world is FoxNews, but then they are all idiots there so meh.
