Swine flu redux

I was completely convinced that the swine flu was mostly hype until I read this CDC report - they are noting some very disturbing trends - unlike seasonal flu, swine flu is worse for kids (ages 5 -24) than for the elderly, and a third of kids who have died were otherwise healthy (had no underlying health problems, no compromised immune systems, etc). Lots of kids will get it and be fine, but some will crash, fast. People are concerned about "adverse reactions" to the immunization, but death is an adverse reaction to the disease - that is a much bigger concern for me!
