So I just did some poking around on CNN's website regarding the whole pig flu thing.
There have been 12 confirmed deaths in Mexico as a result of this disease. 1 in the United States (a child from Mexico who passed away in a Texas hospital). Another 150 suspected deaths. So let's call it 163 deaths from the swine flu, essentially all in or around the Mexico City area, right?
