Reply #140: That is probable more than possible

[Baby Snooks]

It seems to be more virulent in the population in Mexico but we don't know which population. Those with indigenous Indian heritage or those with Spanish heritage. Influenza apparently has not been a problem in Mexico for some reason so most people probably have no immunity at all. Most of us have some immunity simply because most of us have had flu at least once in our lives.

As things stand, despite it being a pandemic in terms of having spread to other continents, the numbers don't equate to a pandemic.

Perhaps it is just another "warning" to all of us, however, because it or another "new" strain is still there and still mutating and may come back and kill millions the way the Spanish Flu did in 1918.
