In the related news to that article, there was a note reported about this on October 2nd. I'm suprised I'm just now hearing about this. That would have been the day before their game sunday.

I erased the link because the swine flu case was a few days old, and I did not want anyone thinking that the Texans had more confirmed cases.

No big deal. I read here pretty religiously and didn't see it posted before. I don't think this is a honda if people were already talking about it a few days ago.

This would be incredible news as there have no known cases of "swine flu" in the United States for decades
Ag Secretary Admonishes Media for Misrepresenting H1N1 Influenza Virus
Sep 11, 2009 9:06 AM
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack held a press briefing today (Sept. 10) with the intended purpose of explaining the USDA’s preparedness to handle the potential onset H1N1 influenza this fall.
Vilsack acknowledged that the novel H1N1 virus includes part human, part avian and part swine strains. “Its the combination that made it unique and different,” he continued. “Unfortunately, the media gravitated to the swine aspect of it and then labeled it so. Then, in their efforts to simplify the complexity of the virus by using the ‘swine flu’ reference, they (media) created a real problem in terms of pork producers and pork markets by fostering confusion and uncertainty in the markets at a time when the market was unstable to begin with.
“It is not swine flu,” he admonished. “Its just not correct to call it that. Its a novel virus and the most appropriate and correct way to refer to it is 2009 Pandemic H1N1 Influenza virus This may seem difficult or silly to some people but its not if you're out there trying to make a living and taking care of your family.”

And I was sure the Browns were going to be the ones suffering the outbreak of the swine flu.

Here is the link to the medical doctor's non-comments comments. 10/5 on this page medical doctor speaks. honestly did not say anything to clarify the situation.
