Like I said, and it is NOT drivel at all but is taken from 2 very respected sources for laypersons. This H1N1 flu strain has not been seen, and humans do
not have immunity to it.
Here is a site for laypersons explaining exactly what I said and what I meant.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30423369/
Quoting:
"This is a new virus so there's no natural immunity. It has the potential to spread very widely. That's what raises worries about a possible pandemic."
As to my earlier statement that Mexico did not do enough to contain the spread early on, this is also said in the same article:
"There's
supposed to be a pandemic prevention plan to contain a new flu virus by giving people in surrounding area Tamiflu.
But it has obviously been spreading in Mexico for up to a month. The new strain of swine flu was discovered in California before the U.S. even knew about cases in Mexico. The virus could also be mutating."
One does not get accurate medical information from " Wikipedia" necessarily.
And the article I am quoting is very generic, not nearly as specific as the medical community specific literature and advisories I have access to.
Respectfully,
