I'm not sure I'm understanding your question. I thought the H1N1 flue going around this year was a newer strain?
Swine flue is able to cause a pandemic as it has mutated(changed) and is now able to infect humans.
Swine flue is a disease that normally just infects pigs, but now it has been transferred to humans making a new version of the HINI type, which is very contageous, even some animals can catch it, all be it rare.
I had swine flue last August and was given a course of Tamiflue, plus kept in isolation for over 2 weeks.
The effects vary from person to person.. the biggest problem I found was the total exhaustion you feel, barley able to put one foot in front of the other.
That feeling to a lesser degree does last for some weeks after.
Lots of people have had it, many were not even aware, the symptoms were so slight,they just thought that they had a bit of a cold.
Wouldn't want it again, although you can get it twice.
