According to the WHO as of today, April 29, 2009 there have been a grand total of eight deaths due to the new strain of swine flu that have been confirmed by the organization. Seven have been in Mexico and one, a toddler who had recently been brought to the United States for treatment from Mexico, in the United States.
There have been a total of 148 confirmed cases of the disease worldwide. Chill, people.
I agree. This is not the Black Plague. Calm down, people, it’s the flu, and this is not 1918.
