Do most babies die from Swine Flu?

Not necessarily, babies are definatley a risk with swine flu being that their immune system has not fully matured so a flu shot might be an option if you are worried. Old people are also at a risk due to their dying immune system. In teen years you are most likely not going to die because of swine flu due to your strong immune system so they are not at a risk.
