    So probably she would not have died from swine flu had she not been already on her last legs anyway.

    but as some people on here say it is not a pandemic, epidemic or otherwise

    so go do some damn work

    Indeed. She was pregnant and that means that she was much more susceptible to complications.

    She was Mexican?

    What's the betting she was given Tamiflu too?

    All anyone has to do is look back on your monotonous bleating about swine flu, which seems completely oblivious to any scientific facts.

    In fact, you're even wrong in your insults, that's how dumb you are.

    I was wondering who he reminded me of.

    Seasonal flu - 1 death per 1000 cases on average (approx for you pedants).
    Swine flu - 1 death in current 1200 cases in the UK.

    Current estimate is 2 in 3 cases do not get reported so 1 death in approximately 3600 cases. Sounds pretty minor to me.

    All data from some bloke I heard on the radio this morning so must be true.

    Sounds like a line from Pinky and the Brain. No Cyberman, you are not the Brain.
