this year so many people troubling because of swine flue how long it will take to find its antidote?
swine flue is there any options left?
There is already a vaccine.
Problem is, the vaccine is more deadly than the disease.
Really, swine flu is extremely over-hyped. Save yourself the wasted trouble and worry about AIDS instead, okay?

The swine flu is way overhyped... in fact, it's probably a prime example of how the media can negatively skew public opinion on an issue and how it can incite a panic. Swine flu isn't even as deadly as the normal flu, which kills many more people EACH YEAR. And now they're worried about a disease that has barely killed a fraction of that. There are more things to worry about, and if you're healthy, you shouldn't even worry about it.

That's not true if you look at the moment when more people are infected. On this moment it WOULD be true, since the disease hasn't spread that much and human errors with any vaccination would cause more deaths than the flu does. (Forgetting to replace needles and stuff).
The main reason why people are so afraid of this flu is because it will be extremely dangerous if it evolves the unfortunate way. In that case even healthy persons will have a hard time fighting the disease. But at this point there's nothing to worry about. Even the little sister of my best friend had it and recovered. Only if you're weak enough to die from a normal flu you should worry.

If we were counting the normal flu cases, then it would also have increased like this. That's the thing, we think it is more, because we get total figures over a longer period of time. Rather than month to month. Flu would still rank much higher, reported on in this way.
I don't think it is hype, but I do think it is taken out of proportion to what is really happening. What makes it bad, is if we get another scare of another virus, people may be desensitized to these kind of media reports.

Good, then maybe the media will stop making hyped-up disease reports.

Next thing they will probably go for legislation as per your other thread:

my solution to fix swine flu is to kill all people with swine flu then we have no chance of getting swine flu.

Hey! I caught swine flu, and I'm not too happy about your ideas of curing me...
It is NOT bad enough to do things like that- it wasn't even as bad as the regular flu, really. What's the big deal?
swine flu is no more dangerous that common flu
