Twenty-six, or 58 percent, of Mexico’s swine flu deaths were among people ages 20 to 39, Mexican health authorities said yesterday.
About 56 percent of people who died from flu in Mexico showed signs of a “hyper-immune reaction” according to health ministry. The ministry didn’t give details.
About 11 percent of those who died in that country had heart disease, and 24 percent had diabetes or were obese, conditions that might predispose patients to complications, according to the government’s Ministry of Health.
SHOOT: The WHO are in quandrary. The virus is spreading, some statisticsw may be covered up, and they'll only decare it a pandemic when it is obvious (in other words, when people start dying in droves). Meanwhile, people are no longer concerned about H1N1. It's last week's news. Really? I predict it will be news that comes back to haunt us over the next several weeks and months, if not longer.
The flu has sickened at least 3,440 in 29 countries, the World Health Organization said today on its Web site, and killed at least 49. Costa Rica said a 53-year-old man who had diabetes and lung disease died, the first fatality outside North America, the Associated Press said. Canada reported its first death yesterday.
The U.S. had nearly 3,000 cases as of today, about 20 percent more than the day before, and “the numbers are likely a very great understatement,” Schuchat said.
“It’s too soon to say things are getting better. We’re still accelerating,” Schuchat said.
Asian health ministers called on WHO to review criteria for declaring a flu pandemic. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations said WHO should consider the severity of illness in addition to person-to-person spread, the association said in a statement distributed in Bangkok yesterday.

Nick, as you may have realized, it is quite possible that this flu strain is part of The Old World's
aristocracy, and its desire to retain its control of the masses.
Not having the time to go into the details as to why the cosmos is allowing this to happen, I leave you with a link to the material I discovered and loaded on one of my website pages that may also answer any questions you may have.
