I don't think this chart and information is accurate. But, Inspite of that it gives me good information about Swine Flu (As I am not aware about it, first read here).

Wow, this really makes the Swine Flu look like nothing. Thanks media for blowing this wayyy out of proportion.

And notice that it killed the EXACT same number of people as the bird flu scare of 1997. Coincidence? You be the judge!

The bird flu and the swine flu are just media hype. How do you even compare 200 deaths to 50 million on the same article?
