[ScienceBlogs Channel : Medicine & Health] Swine flu: are we there, yet? : Effect Measure: I've got about 9 windows open now and am fatigued, but if I had to guess, I'd say Spanish Flu has a linear epitope that is very similiar or identical to the amino acid sequence of part our lung tissue or some other post-infection lung surface located substrate. Our immune systems come in and start attacking these virii, and soon begin attacking our own lungs.

[The Business Insider] Swine Flu Is Way Worse Than Expected: Unfortunately, since both types are AH1N1 viruses, they tend to swap off genetic components very readily - it is almost a certainty that the swine flu will acquire resistance by the fall. And, regardless of the optimistic prognostications of the various agencies and companies (all of which are vying for research dollars), a vaccine will NOT be ready by the time the next wave begins.

[Your Say] The Age Blogs: Your Say: And there’s no need to compare it to Ebola…look at Spanish flu - the global mortality rate from the 1918/1919 pandemic is not known, but it is estimated that 10% to 20% of those who were infected died. With about a third of the world population infected, this case-fatality ratio means that 3% to 6% of the entire global population died.” Would that be enough to jolt the complacents out of their apathy?

Outlets such as Grist, Huffington Post, and Daily Kos have contributed to the eruption, as have some members of the old-line print and broadcast media, but I find much of the reportage at this point troubling.
