A member asked:
Why did the baby die from swine, but not the others?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
All types of flu...: ...Have significant mortality, especially in the very young and very old. Swine flu was unique in being especially deadly to healthy adults, but influenza mortality among unvaccinated babies is always pretty high.
