It just occurred to me today that I still haven’t seen any coverage in the MSM why we are having so many H1N1 cases in the USA, at a time when much of the population would still have relatively high levels of Vitamin D, still stored from the summer sun.

I was wondering if anyone on this messagethread might have run across any articles about this.... as surely many of those school children did not stay inside the entire summer....

Thank you.

First, wecome to the thread, glad you found us.

You have a valid point, made me think and I would say that the kids around here did not go outdoors, or not like we did as kids.

It is true that I live in the country and do not have kids near me, but in the years past, I have been aware of them making noise when they visited neighbors, or traveled up and down the roadways.

It would be interesting to take your question a step further and see if the areas with the largest number of sick kids, are also the areas that have the most gangs and drive by shootings?

If so, then the real kids were not allowed outdoors, too dangerous.

The truth is, I do not know the answer, someone brings it in and it spreads around and fast.

They keep saying that it does not spread from animals to us, but from us to the animals, something is wrong with that kind of thinking.

Birds and poultry now have swine flu, according to the World Health Dept.

How long does Vit D stay in your body? I'm thinking many are having colds and allergies but jumping to the conclusion it's H1N1. Many here are having sinus and allergy problems due to the wet weather. The weather is still nice in most of the country allowing kids to play outside. School fall sports are in full swing so they're outside. I was just thinking today that when football and such ends in a couple weeks, we'll be seeing more cases. I know that our schools have put the foaming soap (more fun, more will use) in the restrooms and every classroom has Germ-X which kids are using. However, a couple weeks ago, there were 7-9 absences in each class period. Now, it's back down to the normal 1-2 absences.
