Going to the source is easy.

edit: one interesting tidbit from todays news though. Reported that 36 children have died "from" H1N1 so far, HOWEVER.. 2/3s of them were already suffering from some other illness or condition. In other words, they were already weakened.
http://thinktwice.com/cdc_2001.pdf yup and then read that and see how the combine Flu and Pneumonia together, and look at the highest age statistic to die due to the "flu" Then look at flu only related deaths.

They skew shit so bad. Yes once you get over a certain age your immune system goes to shit. Getting just a cold can trigger pneumonia, or flu. But the fact here is its mainly the elderly that die, and its from PNEUMONIA not from flu.

Just silly.

btw see you edited just as I quoted you. So you kind of "get it" too.
