Thanks DvdMom.

Strange how this flu is hitting those under 30 y/o. You would think it would be really bad for the elderly.

I had a short discussion with a friend yesterday about the flu and how it’s still out there, even though it’s summer. She thought it was over with because the MSM isn’t reporting on it anymore. Told her to look it up on FR. More info here than I’ve seen elsewhere.

CDC: 37 is the median age of H1N1 fatalities.

You might want to read John Barry’s book The Great Influenza. This is the same pattern.

Young Indiana man dies of swine flu

CINCINNATI, July 12 (UPI) — A 19-year-old man has become the first person in Indiana to die of swine flu, health officials said.

Matthew McIntosh died in a hospital in Cincinnati after collapsing in a barn in Dearborn County in southeastern Indiana, The Indianapolis Star reported Saturday.

McIntosh’s death was unusual because he was healthy with no underlying illness, health officials said. Most of the 211 people believed to have died from infection with the H1N1 virus have suffered from conditions that made them vulnerable.

O’Dell Owens, the coroner in Hamilton County, Ohio, said an autopsy showed McIntosh had no other adverse health conditions. Owens said McIntosh’s sister, who became ill around the same time and is in intensive care, tested negative for H1N1, but McIntosh tested positive.
