Swine Flu Update (121) Seasonal Flu Kills 5000 in
Most official sources now agree that the virus effects people are experiencing are 'mild' and comparable with COMMON flu. There really is no need to 'panic', but you should take heed of suggestions to ensure you wash your hands regularly, avoid touching your face and mouth, and use strict hygiene when coughing or sneezing. (All things we should already be doing really :o) It is probable that the virus will continue to spread, and there may even be a sustained period of 'inactivity' before the onset of another 'wave' of illnesses. The main danger does not appear to be from the virus itself, but from subsequent illness such as pneumonia, as the body's immune system reacts to fight the virus. Why is the pneumonia vaccine not being discussed ? Up to half a million people die every year from COMMON influenza and associated pneumonia. 2001 Death rate extrapolations for USA alone for Flu: 63,729 per year, 5,310 per month, 1,225 per week, 174 per day, 7 per hour, 0 per minute, 0 per second. Note: this automatic extrapolation calculation uses the deaths statistic: 63,730 annual deaths for influenza and pneumonia (NVSR Sep 2001); estimated 20,000 deaths from flu (NIAID)
