H1N1 Swine Flu Epidemic: Real or Hype?
Many believe the H1N1 swing flu epidemic is all hype not real, in your face, not going to happen in my lifetime, farce. They are basing their beliefs on what has taken place in the world so far. Not too many people have died in other countries, so we don’t need to be too concerned.
While on the other hand there are those who think the H1N1 swine flu epidemic is real not hype. Their predictions are that ½ of the U.S. population can be affected by the flu virus. Just look at our ordinary flu season. There are many who get the regular flu. So if these same statistics on flu hold true in our country and if the swine flu is predominantly the one, we could be in for a long, hard flu season.
Which one is right? Many scientists believe the second group to be correct. They base their predictions strictly on the numbers game. They look at the number of people who get the flu in an ordinary flu season. They take the percentages of the number of mortalities annually for the U.S. from flu. Then they predict how many deaths could occur from the flu season.
It is all a matter of playing the numbers game. Or is it? The swine flu isn’t playing fair. Pregnant women make up 6% of the deaths to date. While young adults ages 20 to 49 are being hit hardest. Does this mean these groups of people are more at risk? So far they have been.
Some scientists say that if ½ of our population is affected by the swine flu, then we could see the death rates range from 30,000 to 90,000 in the U.S. Of course those figures aren’t that alarming unless the death rate climbs to 6%.
So is the H1N1 swine flu epidemic real or hype? We believe that you should begin to prepare your body just in case it is. Eat good healthy foods and stay away from processed foods and sugar. Keep your body in top physical condition. See your physician before you begin any change in diet or exercise program. Whatever you do, eat healthy my friends.
