Is not rare and is not new, remember by government statistics pneumonia infects 5 to 10 million people in the US every year, the cases are more during the fall and winter, but now when we have a made pandemic of "swine flu" the pneumonia cases that happen every year are been tagged to swine flu, when is very clear that pneumonia can infect and kill people with swine flu or not.

Swine flu is no killing people pneumonia is.
As usual if you get the flu be seasonal or swine flu and you develop pneumonia that is what can be dangerous to you if you have some underlying health problems or if you go untreated.
You can get pneumonia and died from it with swine flu or seasonal flu vaccine or not.
And that is what people are ignoring and has been geared to believe that is the swine flu what is killing because the media is ignoring the pneumonia facts.

DES MOINES, Iowa -- Iowa has officially recorded 21 H1N1 deaths, including seven in Polk County alone. But the county's medical examiner said he has performed autopsies on some residents who were never diagnosed with H1N1, but actually had it. "In the autopsy, what we're seeing is very heavy, wet hemorrhagic lungs, lungs with a lot of blood in them," said Dr. Gregory Schmunk. He said the official count of seven H1N1 deaths is inaccurate, but patient rights laws prohibit him from giving specific numbers. He said there are two reasons for the discrepancy. First, not all sick patients get tests and second, the virus is difficult to detect. Some patients may be too sick to receive the most accurate H1N1 test. "They're not always done and it can be hazardous to the patient if they're in a respiratory critical situation," Schmunk said. He also said that some tests reveal a false negative. "Because of our limitations on testing, sometimes the tests aren't positive," he said. "They do appear to fit clinically the course of a H1N1 viral-type pneumonia."

I believe it, but in my case I blame it to the tampering of our food supplies and the medications we are bombarded with to treat different medical conditions, one big example is the bacterial booming that is immune to medications.

So wait...is this bacterial? Summary? And so the pneumonia vaccine (or any vaccine) is basically worthless? I'm so confused.

It's too late for vaccination now but people can still save themselves by being prepared and taking precautions. Telling people not to is the same thing as killing them, IMO.

Even if you have a doctors note or cut a limb off and went to the ER before work, they don't care, you're getting a point on your attendance no matter what...and they changed the attendance policy putting most of us within a point or two of being fired, so we have no choice...
If I get deathly ill I'm coming in and going straight to the managers office lol
ps...I work at CVS Pharmacy and they are evil
