Flu only kills 257 in USA in 2001

Why are they lying about these flu deaths???

These data may look old but this is the only data available and most
reliable. It took time for these data to be analysed and published.

Our common sense should tell us about the real deaths due to common
flu. In my whole life, I had never heard any flu deaths but
malnutritions, yes, although I have not seen these deaths personally.

The fact that there are a lot of deaths already due to swine flu shows
how dangerous Swine flu is compared to common flu.

The total data for flu and pneumonia deaths are 60,000 but for those
confirmed with flu is only 257. It shows that there were attempts to
separate these cases. Come on, it is easy to diagnose flu, compared to
just pneumonia, and flu doesn't kill, it is the pneumonia that kills
as a result of the flu.

You can interpret the data, as those killed by pneumonia but some are
induced by flu. Not 30,000 as claimed. Maybe someone just want to give
the average figure thinking that these pneumonia deaths were not
tested for flu, but flu symptoms are obvious.

Even in the current Swine flu deaths, only those that exhibit flu
symptoms were tested. Not all pneumonia deaths are tested for flu.
Maybe it is a good idea to start now. Maybe we can determine who have
flu or not. I doubt it will be many given the mild nature of common
flu.
