Guy was healthy father of 4 with no underlying health conditions. No one else in family got sick.

Wonder if we're being told the WHOLE truth about the so-called Swine flu?

Of course there was a mandatory underlying condition behind his death.

Truth is a fungable item these days.

I wonder if a cytokine storm is what overcame him? I’m beginning to dread this coming fall and winter. If this stuff keeps hanging around and mutating during the summer, it’s possible this strain will follow a path like the 1918 Spanish flu. The second wave was the killer.

Prayers for the family.

Keep in mind more people die in one day (150+/-) in the US during regular flu season than have died from swine flu this entire year (127).

I wouldn't doubt it. Immune system overload.

I was under the impression folks who around for the 70s version of the Swine flu might have some natural (or unnatural) immunity.

God Bless him and his family. Too close to home. I don’t know where he lived in P-ville, but it couldn’t be too far from me. It’s just not that big.

I’m making fun of the town’s name. The town has “flu” in the name. It’s a little ironic.

Amazing that “they” want us to be good and take our mandatory shots.
Will the vaccine be worse than the flu???
I DO NOT plan on being vaccinated by this government.
For those of you who will submit.
I suggest extract of thuja,cilantro tea three times a day
and some liquid chlorella.
I'm buying stock tomorrow for loved ones who wont say no.

Oh and by the way isn't the timing of all this pandemic
convenient for zero so we can't congregate to protest.
