I’m not because generally this flu is not much different than the average flu, but it’s alarming to scientists because it is an example of a virus jumping from animal to human and has the potential of mutating as it’s passed from person to person.. will this be another spanish flu? not likely (in my opinion).

At any rate, if you’d like to keep track of H1N1 in real time, you may do so with the map below.. happy flu hunting!

Update: As of today, there have still not been any deaths outside of Mexico, and of those infected outside of Mexico, most illnesses are reported to be mild.. So again, there’s still no need to panic, just take your normal precautions… like not kissing someone who’s sneezing or coughing ;)
