First Swine Flu death in the United States, regardless of boarders.
Am I wrong? No.
No, you're not. But that isn't what you'd look at in this situation: People in the US, especially mothers of newborns, are now going to be even more worried about the death rate. This is because they think the treatment is now failing, or that the strain is getting worse. When, from as far as we know, it hasn't much changed since a week ago.
From what I've heard, some media stations had only released the fact that an infant, in the US, had died from Swine Flu. And yes, that is true, but they didn't release the additional information.
The media likes to cause panic: let us refer back to the Y2K.
