I'm just curious. How is this different than the normal flu? Why don't we have a level 5 pandemic every year when that comes around? So far this seems like a flu that's hitting out of season and got spread to a lot of places due to bad holiday timing. I mean people are likely to get sick, but the fatality rate of Mexico (whether it's 7 or 150) seems far off compared to what it's doing to anyone else.
Granted, it's off season, which generally is worse in terms of what doctors are prepared to deal with and in terms of the fact that people are out and about more than during "normal" flu season, but this is kind of silly.
