As I said, it is a tragedy to any family that loses someone. It is, and I offer my heartfelt condolences to the family on their loss. I meant absolutely no disrespect to them or any other family that suffers as a result of H1N1.
I do, however, feel that the media is playing this up beyond it's true societal impact (as opposed to the very real individual familial impacts). I stand by my statement that the MEDIA is using H1N1 to their advantage, far beyond what it merits from the point of view of its overall impact.
