How many deaths did the swine flu cause?

Answer 1

The Swine Flu outbreak in humans in 1976 at Fort Dix, New Jersey involved four soldiers who were previously healthy but contracted the virus. They developed pneumonia, diagnosed by X-ray, with other symptoms of the flu. One died as a result. The virus was thought to have circulated approximately a month in the close quarters of the group in basic training but not outside the group, then it disappeared.

Answer 2

The 1976 swine flu outbreak, also known as the swine flu fiasco, or the swine flu debacle, was a strain of H1N1 influenza virus that appeared in 1976. Infections were only detected from January 19 to February 9, and were not found outside Fort Dix. The outbreak is most remembered for the mass immunization that it prompted in the United States. The strain itself killed one person and hospitalized 13. However, side-effects from the vaccine caused five hundred cases of Guillain Barré Syndrome and 25 deaths.

Answer 4

Counts were only kept up to a certain point in the pandemic and are no longer being kept, so an accurate number is unavailable. There may be some ongoing cases in limited locations around the world. However, the specifics and counts of cases are no longer being tracked by CDC, WHO, the US states, and most other countries, now that the pandemic has been declared over. Influenza cases are monitored, but specific H1N1/09 counts (and the lab tests needed to isolate the specific virus to be able to count them correctly) aren't being done. Influenza cases in general are monitored, but statistics are not being kept for H1N1/09 cases separately from other influenza types for reporting any longer in the post pandemic phase.
