It sure seems there is something unusual going on, with some people that get this virus.
A woman in my area died of it but she had underlying health issues. We were not given her name nor info on her health issues.
There sure is something weird about this virus.
Notice, too, that when the virus wasn’t killing people, everyone was in a tailspin about it.
Now, people are dropping like flies and by the amount of coverage it’s getting, you’d never know there was a virus that deadly and unpredictable going around.
What’s up with the MSM I wonder.
Five Hospital Doctors in Costa Rica With AH1N1
http://insidecostarica.com/dailynews/2009/july/19/cr03.htm
The Hospital Nacional de Niños (Children’s Hospital) reports that five of its resident doctors are out sick with the AH1N1 flu virus. A sixth medical resident has now recovered after being infected.
The incapacitation was confirmed by the ministra de Salud, María Luisa Ávila.
The ministra said that samples are now being tested at the laboratory and it will be several days before the results are in, meanwhile the doctors are staying home to avoid risk spreading infection.
The AH1N1 has so far claimed 11 lives in Costa Rica, the worst week being this past week when on average one person a day died from the virus.
DPH said the victim had no known underlying health conditions

A 26-year old Martha’s Vineyard resident who died August 14 is the first confirmed H1N1-related death on the Island, and the 11th death in Massachusetts, according to state public health officials.
The man, Elton Barbosa of Oak Bluffs, died at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston after he was transported off the Island earlier last week. He was a native of Brazil and worked on the Island as a painter, according to several acquaintances.
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) confirmed the H1N1-related death on Monday. In a press release, DPH said the victim had no known underlying health conditions, but released no other information about the case. “Every death from flu is tragic, but it is even more so when it involves a young person,” said DPH Commissioner John Auerbach. “This case is also a reminder of how serious influenza can be, and why we are focused so intently on preparations for the upcoming flu season.”
Agreed. It definitely sounds like some other factor was involved, besides the flu.
