OMG

so 35,000 people die every year from the normal flu, but we are freaked out about some mexikans ("see" button doesn't work for some reason) and one kid that died from this strain? I even heard the strain is weaker then the flu that hits every winter.

I'm sorry

Should it be monitered and dealt with, yes.
Is this being played up like usual, yes.
News stations need big headline news, this can be headline news when you start throwing around the word pandemic alot.
Next year this will be another SARS.
Next story.

The real fear-mongoring is from CNN!
140 reported cases in a population of 300,000,000, I think we have more lottery winners than that!
