When did the swine flue break out?

Answer 1

In the summer of 2009 in Mexico. It was called the Swine Flu because it was first found in swine. Although pigs can have it, they do not create or spread the virus unaffected, like humans. The virus actually comes from birds, as it is actually a strand of the avian flu. It should be treated like the normal flu, because quite frankly, that's what it is. The media fear-mongering has been just a way to sell more product-they do it all the time.
