It would be great to have real data, complete comparisons of this flu season and others, even bad flu season comparisons. We need to know where we stand, this is of no help. People die from the flu every year, 18000 to 66000 in the United States. 87 in Vermont in a previous year.
More facts, the people can plan and solve the situation with real data, real comparisons. We don’t need fear, we need cold hard comparisons.
We need those that have the educational background, that have easy access to information and the resource to study this to give us MORE, more meat.
Sound bites, posting somebody died only creates panic. I’m saying it this site with the hopes that they can provide such information. I know all too well the truth will NOT be found on Vermont Digger, the Burlington Free Press or Seven Days.
This is a wonderful, wonderful opportunity for True North Reports to be the beacon of sanity in Vermont at a crucial time. It is a time to become THE source of light and truth when it’s truly needed. If they do so it will ease the fear, solve the problems and bring us together.
26 that have been discovered. This may well be the tip of the iceberg. Let’s hope and pray that this is not the case.
