One has to put things into context. There are thousands of predictions in the ATS archives, and maybe 99% of them have proven to be inaccurate.
Someone gets it right sometimes just by the law of averages.
This one really appears to be one of those case.

The purpose of this site, if I'm not mistaken, is to deny ignorance, right?
So, what is the point of this site, when you have a 100% accurate "prediction" coming true and people are actually posting that the guy got lucky?
The poster in 2008 didn't say some mysterious illness would happen at some point, he didn't say that a killer virus would be unleashed and kill millions of people within two months, the poster made a very specific, perfectly accurate, DESCRIPTION of exactly what is happening now!
There is no point to this site whatsoever if when faced with the TRUTH, (it was only a prediction until it came true), you still deny it.
Yes, there are scores of conspiracy theories within this site that most of us know will more than likely never come to fruition. Sometimes it's just fun to play "what if".
But this is not a game. We talk about sheeple that when faced with the TRUTH still deny it's existence, willing to believe in ridiculous coincidences, when WE KNOW BETTER.
You have to be able to see this for what it is in order for this site to have any purpose whatsoever.
There may only be a handful of "predictions" on this site that come true, but being able to ACKNOWLEDGE WHEN THEY DO is the definition of DENYING IGNORANCE.
I'm filing this under PROOF that someone, somewhere, saw this coming.
This, in my opinion, has all of the makings of an accurate prediction and evidence of the truth behind it. It was specific, accurate, and within a reasonable timeframe.

You made a mistake there. Remember, the Anonymous ATS user account could be used by anyone. There are two posts there, the one on 12/31/2008 which is this prediction and then one on 2/13/2009 which is the revelations Bible stuff. These two posts are not made by the same person.

From what I've read, the current strain is a mix of avian, swine and pig

According to this article:

The origin of Swine Flu was tracked to August 2008; months before the post made here on ATS.

The swine flu outbreak of 1918 was spread out. The early victims were not really noticed much. It got bad when flu season came along and the bug was suspected to have mutated.
We haven't seen the end of H1N1 yet.
