H1N1: A Real Mystery
Swine Flu has been a hot topic for several months now, and it's been given a lot of attention and a lot of advertisement on television, radio, billboards, and magazines. I wonder if there is something fishy behind all of this. Why is the government shoving this in our faces, and why are they making it seem so important? From what I understand, H1N1 isn't anymore serious than the regular flu. Any thoughts?

As a British nurse I can honestly say I have had 7 cases of hospitalisation due to the H1N1 virus, I truly believe it is a ploy to distract us from the War in the east and the recession.

I had H1N1 earlier this month. I ahve had the seasonal flu before. There is a HUG difference. I have asthma, and this type of flu almost killed me. A healthy 18 year old pregnant girl in my area got it and went into a coma and died (they were able to save the baby). Also, it is giving a lot of false negatives when people are being tested....which is dangerous. In Northern Ohio...there are hundreds of cases of it.

I agree for the majority of people H1N1 isn't that big of a deal, in most cases it's milder than the average flu. However, conspiracy or alterior motive theories just don't gain any ground here. Because 1) It genuinely is a new strain, so even if their response is over the top it's not like they made it up, nor did they know the full potential or severity the new strain would or would not turn into. 2) It's a global phenomenon and no one government or even a combo of top governments could coordinate or manipulate on a global scale for watever those alterior motives would happen to be. 3) There are far scarrier diseases out there they could have used for their alterior motives instead, things so vile it wouldn't even prompt a mystery inquiry because people would be so desperately eager to avoid getting it.
