With fall rapidly approaching (in the Northern hemisphere) it seems likely that this year’s flu season has the potential to be devastating should the H1N1 virus become more virulent and combine with seasonal flu. It’s been almost 90 or so years since the Spanish flu of 1918 which killed 50-100 million people, but are we more prepared this time. There is talk of a vaccine being prepared but is this going to be enough, will enough people get it?
We covered swine flu earlier this year but now that the dust has settled it seems like a good time to informally start a discussion with our readers about their thoughts on this years flu’ season. What do you think? Are you confident or worried about the future, what are you doing to remain healthy through the fall and winter?
