re: death toll has reached 189 and more than 1 million people have been infected
Huh? 189 deaths out of more than a million who’ve gotten the virus? That seems a very small death toll. What am I missing?

if every many woman and child in the United States got infected then around 50,000+ people would die...or roughly 2.5 times the amount that die each year from the flu already.

A doctor in Western Ukraine who did not want to be named, said: We have carried out post mortems on two victims and found their lungs are as black as charcoal.
They look like they have been burned. Its terrifying.
This seems rather odd. I would think it is more likely these victims were coal miners.

If anyone is interested there is a large long messagethread about this epidemic in Ukraine. Below is a link to the first report of the Ukraine H1N1 flu outbreak on Free Republic; that messagethread is currently 4 pages long, and may be of interest to somem as it contains direct links to many dozens of articles about this outbreak, from ever since articles began to start to appear in the Western press.
