My Way News - WHO: nearly 5,000 swine flu deaths worldwide
My Way News reports: "Nearly 5,000 people have reportedly died from swine flu since it emerged this year and developed into a global epidemic, the World Health Organization said Friday. Since most countries have stopped counting individual swine flu cases, the figure is considered an underestimate."

Comment: I'd like to ask a reader in the medical community to explain the logic of saying that swine flu is a serious threat to public health (a pandemic) but we are not going to count the number of cases. How does the medical establishment estimate the amount of vaccine needed to fight swine flu if they are not counting cases and tracking the outbreak? Thank you in advance.
