If you investigate a group that died from any disease, it is expected that the damage will be severe. So this article seems to say nothing unusual, although it is useful for those who want to alarm the public.

Bad news when the full monty.

I don't know what that means.

Anyway, I got something about 2-1/2 weeks ago. Went to the doc, and found I was running a mild fever. Symptoms weren't like the normal flu either more like bronchitis or sinus infection.

I've developed a cough that won't go away. It's like when I was an asthmatic kid.

Maybe there's something too this. (cough..)

Yeah and the peak season is over and cases are declining. Noe of this is a surprize. This came earlier than usual but CDC and WHO made it into something it wasn’t. It became like the SARS scare and bird flu and every other friggin disease they want to use to control us with.

The Southern Hemisphere experience said that this flu would hit early and hard. That it would peak rapidly, have a second wave, and then die out earlier than usual. That is exactly what has happened.

Influenza most often kills by the induction of ‘shock lung’. That isn’t new. It is a nasty way to die but not new

The Asian flu epidemic of 1957 coincided with the start of the space race. Paul Perryman made reference to both events in his rock and roll recording, “Satellite Fever and the Asiatic Flu” (Kix Records, 1958).

Almost all the deceased had other health problems:

Ninety-one percent of those autopsied had underlying medical conditions, such as heart disease or respiratory disease, including asthma, before becoming ill with 2009 H1N1 influenza. Seventy-two percent of the adults and adolescents who died were obese. This finding agrees with earlier reports, based on hospital records, linking obesity with an increased risk of death from 2009 H1N1 influenza.

This stuff has been going around here in eastern Iowa, and I got it a month ago.

I could not breath with the same strength till recently. Part of my job means I am certified to wear a full face respirator, and I could not breath through the cartridges at all.

Kind of freaked me out the first time I tried. I have been wear respirators like that since I was 10 or so (growing up on a farm).
