Swine flu could hit one in three

Posted by Alli Lewis

While it may seem that the swine flu is passing, researchers say that it has "full pandemic potential." The number of confirmed swine flu cases has reached 5,251 and is affecting 30 countries around the world. So far, 61 have died from the disease. This flu is not nearly as lethal as the bug that caused the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. An estimated 50 million deaths were caused by the Spanish flu.
