According to some reports, at least 200 people have died so far in Mexico.
Read this comment and some others linked below for firsthand accounts:

“I work as a resident doctor in one of the biggest hospitals in Mexico City and sadly, the situation is far from “under control”. As a doctor, I realise that the media does not report the truth. Authorities distributed vaccines among all the medical personnel with no results, because two of my partners who worked in this hospital (interns) were killed by this new virus in less than six days even though they were vaccinated as all of us were. The official number of deaths is 20, nevertheless, the true number of victims are more than 200. I understand that we must avoid to panic, but telling the truth it might be better now to prevent and avoid more deaths.”

To be fair, an immunization is not instantly effective, and a decent doctor would know that.

Not saying the Mexican government and media are being forthcoming with information, but that statement alone makes statements from that particular "physician" suspect.
