H1N1 Mutates – Could This be The Flu We Have All Been Waiting For?

 

News is coming out of the UK and Norway of a new drug resistant super-H1N1

Two are dead from the strain in Norway and the one in Wales is completely resistant to Tamiflu. Could this be the mutation we have all been waiting for to give this pandemic the kick start that is so badly needed?

So far there are just over 6000 confirmed deaths from H1N1 worldwide. The actual number is certainly much higher as not everyone who gets sick and dies is tested for H1N1, however so far we have not seen the event we have been waiting for. Let’s hope these new mutations show some promise.

In other news, the H1N1 vaccine is still in short supply, so an un-vaccinated population still offers a glimmer of hope.
