It has been a little more than two weeks since the first confirmed case of swine flu was detected in Mexico. Since then there have been eight confirmed deaths, worldwide, from the swine flu and about 150 suspected deaths from the disease.
In that same time period, some 9,600 to 19,200 people across the world have died from regular flu.
As I write this, there has been one confirmed death in the United States from swine flu, a Mexican infant whose family was visiting this country. In the last two weeks, there have been about 1,600 deaths in the United States from regular flu.
