I´m from Europe, so I´m not so scared, but I hope that will stay just in Mexico (sorry, Mexicans) - I heard it´s now in US too, but I hope that was just a few cases.

I'm slightly anxious, but not overly scared. I live in Australia, so hopefully the flu won't reach Australi.
According to the official twitter updates about the Swine flue, there have been 2 possible cases in QLD (a state in Australia), but they have not been confirmed.
This website is for the updates- link

The death rate for people that do not have compromised immune systems to begin with is very low. They have just sent 80 samples to the CDC from my state so it is getting worse, and with the level up to 5 people are beginning to panic unnecessarily.

Being a History buff, I know that in the 1917 there were only a couple hundred deaths from the relativly unknown Spanish Flu. Within in a year it had exploded and in the span of 2 years, 50-100 million people world wide had already died.

This is not to mention the side affects of surviving the illness. Thousands of people died years later to Encephalitis Lethargica or Sleeping Sickness. This was due to the Flu virus attacking the brain years after the initial symptoms dissipated.

So, yeah, I'm worried about it. It kills people my age rather than older adults because of how healthy our immune system is.
