H1N1 is now a full blown mutated pandemic in many countries

If you thought the H1N1 story was history then you might be mistaken. Reports from the CDC, the WHO and doctors confirm that the "plague" that was and still is in the Ukraine now spread to cities all over the world where the lungs of people fill with blood, their lungs get destroyed within days and then they die.
In the Ukraine currently we see people getting infected, going to hospitals but not coming out again. They remain sick for longer than usual, we also hear of a lot of people where they die and their lungs are filled with blood.
According to the WHO they said earlier this month that the H1N1 in Ukraine was the same as in other countries but afterwards they said it did in fact mutate. In Norway the disease or whatever we may call it mutated as well according to the WHO that said also earlier this month that:
The Norwegian Institute of Public Health has informed WHO of a mutation detected in three H1N1 viruses. The viruses were isolated from the first two fatal cases of pandemic influenza in the country and one patient with severe illness.
Norwegian scientists have analysed samples from more than 70 patients with clinical illness and no further instances of this mutation have been detected. This finding suggests that the mutation is not widespread in the country.
The virus with this mutation remains sensitive to the antiviral drugs, oseltamivir and zanamivir, and studies show that currently available pandemic vaccines confer protection.
Worldwide, laboratory monitoring of influenza viruses has detected a similar mutation in viruses from several other countries, with the earliest detection occurring in April. In addition to Norway, the mutation has been observed in Brazil, China, Japan, Mexico, Ukraine, and the US.
So that means that the h1n1 has mutated in all the above countries according to the World Health Organization.
