I guess it just spreads faster and kills the weak...
I agree that it is a media hype kinda thing.

Its not actually the swine flu that kills you. It takes down the defence system so you are susceptible to infections.

With the swine flu scare, and my coincidental illness, people are panicking, but swine flu really isn't so bad...

The panic is causing people to ask the stupidest questions though! It's hilarious!
Go on Yahoo!Answers and search 'swine flu,' 'I have swine flu,' 'swine flu bacon,' 'swine flu oink,' etc.

28 people have now got it in the UK, and if my sources are correct, one of the pupils in my school is being tested for swine flu...scary.

Wow Gaedoae, that was really just inappropriate. How many kids die per year from school shootings? I know the number likely doesn't top 1000, but think of how many lives were lost that never had a chance to develop.

Yes you did Anyhoo, methinks the media's using this swine flu malarkey to sell more wood pulp. Shall we all consider this, then? What differentiates swine flu from influenza?

H1N1 originates in swine. "Standard" strains of influenza originate in humans.

Yes and the swine flu is different, no actual treatment, just some flu medication seems to work. Darn, what was the medicine? I cant remember.
