In response to "okay sorry, but you have to pick a side here. on B2 you said the CDC "flat out stated", now it's "Inside line -- nm" by Andie

(SFEK) and, if H1N1 is 'just as deadly but affecting different people" that does not make it "deadlier."

sorry, but, you can't just make statements and not back them up.

Responses:

you're right. It appears they have not stated it publicly. - loosilu Nov 5, 10:43 7
- "rate is largely unknown" and "seems to be higher" don't make sense to me. -- nm - Max Nov 5, 10:46 5
  - it currently appears to be higher. They don't (and can't) know for sure. -- nm - loosilu Nov 5, 10:47 4
    - If it appeared, they'd be observing it, so wouldn't they know? And if they don't and can't know, it's it poor practice to run around saying - Max Nov 5, 10:50 3
      - it's called "monitoring," and I admitted I was wrong about ten minutes ago. - loosilu Nov 5, 10:51 2
        
        pet peeve. standing request: please do not spread information that isn't publicly available or based on sources, especially regarding health issues. - Max Nov 5, 10:58 1
        
        fair enough, and yes it is. I honestly didn't realize. -- nm - loosilu Nov 5, 10:58
- Seriously? -- nm - Jim Nov 5, 10:45
