Where Is The "Second Wave" Of Swine Flu?
Doctors, health officials say there is no evidence
of a resurgence

Doctors and health officials in areas that were subjected to
H1N1 flu last spring are seeing very little evidence to suggest
that the virus is returning in a much predicted "second
wave".
According to a report in the New
York Times, areas that experienced a relatively
high level of H1N1 cases earlier this year are now seeing a
pattern of less swine flu.
"...in New York, which was the nation’s
hardest-hit city, officials say that flu activity is no higher
than it normally is at this time of year and that school attendance
is normal." the report states.
Following a theory put forth by Dr. Thomas A.
Farley, New York City’s health commissioner, officials
there believe that up to 40% of the city's population may have
developed immunity to the virus.
Despite this New York is still pushing ahead with
the mandatory vaccination of all health workers.
Boston, Seattle, Connecticut and Utah, cities
that also experienced the most cases of swine flu in the spring,
have all reported lower levels of H1N1 cases as we move into
the flu season.
In
Canada too, the virus does not seem to be spreading
quickly, a fact that has prompted the country's top public health
official to put the brakes on an early rollout of the H1N1 vaccine.
This raises a concerning question given that the
first available vaccines, in the form of nasal mist, contain
live H1N1 virus. Their use could actually spur
the spread of the virus where there is otherwise little activity,
according to some medical experts.
The following graphic from the New
York Times piece illustrates the missing "second
wave".
