- CDC
Not what you're hearing in most media - Fareed Zakariah (usually well
informed and insightful just lauded victory over swine flu on his show).

While the official tally of confirmed U.S. swine flu cases topped 4,700 on
Friday, experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now
estimate the true number of infections at more than 100,000 nationwide.
Also on Friday, health officials announced two new deaths linked to the H1N1
virus, bringing the nationwide total to five.
"Today we had our fourth death reported from Maricopa County in Arizona,"
Dr. Daniel Jernigan, from CDC's Influenza Division, said during an afternoon
teleconference Friday. "There are more deaths and hospitalizations that we
are monitoring," he said. The Arizona patient, a woman in her late 40s with
an underlying lung condition, died last week, the Associated Press reported.
Also on Friday, health officials in Nueces County, Texas, announced that
state's third swine flu-related death, an unidentified 33-year-old man with
multiple underlying health conditions who died May 5 or 6, according to the
AP.
The two new fatalities come after two others in Texas and one in Washington
state. All of the victims had underlying health problems besides the flu.
Most cases of swine flu occurring in the United States appear to be mild,
health officials said.
In fact, "estimates of the confirmed and probable cases in the United States
is probably not the best indicator of transmission at this point," the CDC's
Jernigan said. "The outbreak is not localized, but is spreading and appears
to be expanding throughout the United States. This is an ongoing public
health threat."
