And now the number is 81........

Not sure if this has been posted yet, It seems to be more of the same information only thing new is the death count being attributed to the Swine Flu.

According to the site this was just updated 42 min ago..


81 people out of 1000 (Official numbers.. Doesn't mean they are correct)
Makes that.. basically a 8.1% mortality rate..

We should also caution people that what's circulating in the U.S. is not necessarily mild.  We "possibly" just haven't had enough cases yet to get the same sort of fatality rate as in Mexico.   Do not be surprised if we hear of deaths in the U.S. soon.  I apologize if this is alarming to anyone.
