The 2009 flu pandemic is a global outbreak of a new strain of influenza A virus subtype H1N1, first identified in April 2009, which is officially termed novel H1N1 and colloquially called swine flu. Transmission of the new strain is typically human-to-human; eating cooked pork products will not transmit the virus.
The outbreak began in Mexico, with evidence that there had been an ongoing epidemic for months before it was officially recognized as such. The Mexican government soon closed most of Mexico City’s public and private offices and facilities to contain the spread of the virus. As the virus quickly spread globally, clinics were overwhelmed by testing and treating patients, and the WHO and the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) eventually stopped counting all cases and focused instead on tracking major outbreaks. In early June 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak to be a pandemic, but also noted that most of the illnesses were of moderate severity.
The illness is generally mild, except in some cases for people in higher risk groups, such as those with asthma, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, pregnancy, or have a weakened immune system. In addition, even in people who were previously healthy, secondary infections, such as those caused by bacterial pneumonia or a relapse of the illness with worse symptoms, are considered very serious and require medical treatment.
Like other influenza viruses, novel H1N1 influenza is spread by coughing, sneezing, or touching contaminated surfaces and then touching the nose or mouth. Symptoms, which last up to a week, are similar to those of seasonal flu, and can include fever, sneezing, sore throat, cough, headache, and muscle or joint pains.
Fan-submitted Theory
I have recently found out that the H1N1 flu was deliberately set by the creators of the Tamiflu vaccine, the vaccine for the H1N1 flu itself. It was first set in birds as a testing ground in the lab, taking blood samples of certain species of animals to test the effects of the flu, to create one flu that could infect all living creatures. Why? Simple: to sell more vaccines, and to profit from a pandemic scare.
The bird flu was dismissed as a pandemic since the flu could not be transmitted at the time to humans, however since then, the flu has been developed to speed up the evolution process so that the flu could travel to any species.
It is believed that the flu was deliberately tested on pigs, then inplanted in a few in Mexico, which is why the H1N1 flu was origionally found in Mexico, where the flu vaccine itself has been created. The flu vaccine itself, for H1N1, is a weaker strain of the H1N1 flu, which has already been secretely tested, and already prepared for such an event as the pandemic scare. Testing has already been done, but perhaps it is not complete. The benine flu in the vaccine is set to trick your immune system into attacking the weaker strain of the H1N1, which the scientists know that the H1N1 will only get stronger from your weak immune system with enough strength to make the H1N1 flu even more powerful.
Mass vaccinations are set to greatly expand this experiment, to kill off the world slowly with the flu itself. Some of what is in the flu vaccine itself will allow the flu to make you even sicker than it is origionally intended to.
