There were a hell of a lot more cases of H1N1 than reported, particularly in the US. The thing is the vast majority of the infected showed no signs of infection or had symtoms so minor that they didn't believe it was the Swine flu and wouldn't go to the doctor. And even those who did go to the doctor simply got better after a week or so.

Only those with a weak immune system or with other infections/conditions are the ones that need to worry. And I have no doubt in my mind this is what's happening again.

The 'regular' flu kills more each year and no one panics over it.
