Wondering just how many people who "think" they have the flu have been tabulated as swine flu (H1N1) pandemic victims?

CBS News on swine flu - fail!

The central claim is that CDC stopped testing for swine flu hastily and without advance notice to the states:

If you've been diagnosed "probable" or "presumed" 2009 H1N1 or "swine flu" in recent months, you may be surprised to know this: odds are you didn’t have H1N1 flu.

Oh, that’s not good news. I’ve been assuming our family had it already. Twice we all had symptoms so similar to H1N1 that I figured we had H1N1, although the doctor and pediatrician shrugged it off and we weren’t tested for it.

“The central claim is that CDC stopped testing for swine flu...”

I have read this before and was very confused. If this strain is of the epic proportions being reported, why stop the testing? Why not track it?

Of course Sibelius (cough in your elbow) says YOU MUST GET THE VACCINE!!. Then our illustrious “leader” declares a National Emergency. And there is not enough vaccine to go around?

I really hate being a cynic...but this smells a little fishy to me.

I know, a frien’s step-daughter went to the doctor with a sore throat, he did not do the nose swab, he just proclaimed that she had swine flu and sent her home. Her mom who is a nurse is positive she did not have swime flu but a sinus infection.
