Wait if the symptoms are the same as the regular flu, what's the big deal?

It's a lot more dangerous than the "normal" flu. It's a lot deadlier and you need special treatment to get rid of it.
The flu usually kills babies/infants and old people, so far the people that died were over 3 and under 60 and seemed to be in good health prior to the swine flu.
