Okay. So naturally, I've been doing massive H1N1 research - for my families sake.

I looked up RI numbers, but they do not report detailed data. Just charts without any background information - no real substance- at least as of today.


Fortunately, MA is reporting with real numbers.


Tables 2 & 3 are in line with CBS News report video Dr. Mercola brought to my attention last week.


Of all sick people's cases that were actually tested...66% of people did NOT even have the flu at all! So, that leaves 34% of lab cases that have H1N1. Of the 34%, only one case didn't have H1N1 but had some other flu - Influenza B.

So, yes H1N1 is widespread among flus (which most people don't even have). H1N1 is not widespread among the general population, which is what people I talk to believe - thus the panic for flu vaccination.


Here's my 2 cents based on numbers and research...for what it's worth.

It's been my experience with MA friends that many doctors are telling people they have H1N1 without confirmation. Dr. Mercola confirms this information, too, nationally with data gathered from his facebook page.

It's up to us as parents to research and make informed decisions before injecting our children with chemicals and illness.

Honestly, my concern is what the hell is making so many people sick this year, because numbers are showing more flu-like symptoms than last year at this time. Well, by the data we know it's not H1N1 making most people sick. What illnesses make up that 66%? That's my concern, too. There are no vaccines in place for those germs.

With a pandemic, I would expect the numbers to be reversed - that 66% would be H1N1 and 34% would be non-flu illnesses.

Even the CDC has said the H1N1 flu is no different than the regular flu for 99% of people.

"It's true that for 99 percent of the people who get H1N1, it is just the flu--a few miserable days at home."
