If I don't use the numbers we have from the onset of the pandemia, I will make my own. I will be twisting the facts to which ever way I want to twist the information, but it will not be FACTUAL.
Besides, a pandemia is not a movie. People don't go twice to see it or listen to the accounts of people who already went to the movies. This is NATURE.
The more people get infected, the more people will be infected and therefore there will be more deaths. Do you know your sylogisms?

Alritey... let's do some math.
ok so lets say we take 200,000 (This is a totally made up number and just an example. I don't know the exact number.) thousand deaths in a year of normal flu and divide that by 52. That's 3,846.1539 deaths in a week.
Lets compare Oranges.
150 dead so far from swine flu.
3,846 dead from regular flu.
Big difference. When the numbers start to surpass the regular flu numbers worry.

It is not "very" lethal.
However, I know, it could become "more" lethal and return in a second wave, probably more deadly during the next influenza season... or become so, during the South America season, which is just starting... according to an article I read in NewScientist.
