2 flu deaths in Thailand
Thailand confirmed its first two deaths from H1N1 flu as the health ministry said a 42-year-old man died on Saturday following the death last week of a woman from Bangkok. The first victim was a 40-year-old woman in Bangkok who died days ago in a private hospital. She also had heart disease. The ministry later confirmed that an engineer from Chonburi province, 80km from the capital had died at 9am on Saturday. Thailand reported its first case of H1N1 flu on May 12 and now has more than 1,000 confirmed cases.

You see the trend for the type A H1N1. This virus is very easy to spread around.
The original place at Mexico is so far away from Asia, but yet they can reach our shore.
Hope the fatalities are limited.
Based on the report so far, this virus is quite mild. However, those weak and low in immune system should take extra precaution like avoiding crowded places.
