How many people have died of swine flu in 2009 compared to regular flu?

About 25,000 people have died of Swine Flu this year so far where as 36,000 people die each year of seasonal flu in the U.S.A alone. But there's nothing to worry about if you do have swine flu as only 1% of cases are fatal!

Dont believe everything you read. If you want to worry about things that are likely to kill you, i would be much more concerned about being around people like the first answerer.
There have only been a handful of swine flu related deaths. 1 of which was a baby that had no viable immune sytem function, and all adults who have died had pre existing conditions that were involved. For healthy adults, do what you always do... rest, chicken soup, oj, and dayquill so you can make it to work.

About 25, 000 this year. Those around when President Gerry Ford ordered mandatory flu shots for every American only to find that the shots killed more Americans than the flu did are justified in their continued skepticism.
There's no denying the success of vaccinations to stamp out diseases like smallpox. What is driving doubts about vaccinations today is an increasing lack of trust in government at the same time as government seems willing to apply force, as in the New York case, to get the desired result.
Government compulsion is also the fist inside the velvet glove of health insurance "reform.". Growing public awareness of the extent government force will be the dominant feature of the "reform", has driven the recent surge of public opposition. And that was before we heard that there could be criminal penalties for not buying insurance.
Governmental force can be found in nearly every section of the House version, HR 3200. There's limitations on Doctor income, limitations on investments by doctors, limitations on hospital expansion, and regulations governing the extent of care, and the application of medicine for every case. The legislation of course authorizes a huge new set of agencies with the power to promulgate reams of subsequent regulations which will obliterate the doctor-patient relationship.
The same mentality that led President Clinton to blurt out that taxes were good because "we know better how to spend your money than you do" is evident today in the arrogant attitude that only this behemoth increase in government power can save us from our inability to provide health care to ourselves and our loved ones. o_O
