I was curious if maybe i'm the only person that this has happened to , but my wife just informed me a friend of a friend died of H1N1. Although, they died of the pnumonia that followed the flu , but not the flu itself, so i'm curious if the statistics that are out there are including the complication deaths following weeks after having the actual flu. 3 people I know personally in my town now have it ,which is pretty scary. |

typically people don't die from H1N1, they die from secondary bacterial infections like pnuemmonia or adult respitory disease.
H1n1 while serious is being blown way out of proportion. Typically 35 to 40 thousand people die every year from flu. They calling for extra 15 or so thousand people more this year hardly a pandemic breakout, So get your shot, wash your hands and if you get sick stay away from others. Good Luck
