It turns out that it took a lot longer than expected to produce the H1N1 vaccine; the virus doesn’t grow as fast the seasonal flu virus, so the expected tens of millions of doses are trickling in. So far, it’s been no deadlier than the seasonal flu, but the experts fear that it might mutate into something far more dangerous. It appears that it’s tapering off in young children, but it hasn’t hit young adults, who may be the most susceptible population, in great numbers–yet. Let’s hope we win this race.

At least a hundred persons in our city have been infected with the H1N1 virus. I was very scared to get infected with this disease during the pandemic”:
seasonal flu, too, experiences antigenic drift, major and minor. a minor does little else. however, a major has the potential of the 1918 outbreak, and that would be a horror. so, H1N1 demands respect, yet it is not alone in that department.
