"Using new and improved statistical models, CDC scientists estimate that an average of 36,000 people (up from 20,000 in previous estimates) die from influenza-related complications each year in the United States. In addition, about 11,000 people die per year from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a virus that causes upper and lower respiratory tract infections primarily in young children and older adults. "
And why are we freaking out over a handful of deaths from the swine flu? And the above stats are just for the US!
I think the media just loves to see everyone panic.

How hard would it be to release a little old flu in order to make MILLIONS of dollars from a new vaccine. Some people will do anything for a buck. I'm over the media hype...for sure.
