According to the CDC- 36,000 US citizen a year die from the seasonal flu. That's about 885 a year in Minnesota. We are at 12 reported H1N1 related deaths. That's 2% of a regular flu season. With the H1N1 virus being widespread now, either the CDC has been inflating deaths from the seasonal flu vaccine, or we're being fooled about this raging pandemic!
