Swine influenza is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A
influenza viruses that regularly cause outbreaks of influenza in pigs. Influenza viruses that commonly circulate in swine are called “swine
influenza viruses” or “swine flu viruses.” Like human influenza viruses,
there are different subtypes and strains of swine influenza viruses. The
main swine influenza viruses circulating in U.S. pigs in recent years have been, swine triple reassortant (tr) H1N1 influenza virus, trH3N2 virus,
and trH1N2 virus.

Narcolepsy Following 2009 Pandemrix Influenza Vaccination in Europe
An increased risk of narcolepsy was found following vaccination with
Pandemrix, a monovalent 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine that was used in
several European countries during the H1N1 influenza pandemic. This risk
was initially found in Finland, and then other European countries also
detected an association.
Background
Narcolepsy is a central nervous system disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and abnormal manifestations of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. This disorder is caused by the brain’s inability to regulate sleep-wake cycles normally, but it can be treated with medication and
behavior modification. About narcolepsy and other sleep disorders.
Pandemrix is manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline in Europe and was
specifically produced for pandemic 2009 H1N1 influenza. It was not used
before 2009, and has not been used since the influenza pandemic season (2009-2010). It contains an oil-in-water emulsion adjuvant called ASO3. Adjuvants are substances added to a vaccine to increase the body’s immune response to that vaccine. More about adjuvants.
Similarities between H1N1 and COVID-19
Transmission
Both 2009 H1N1 influenza and COVID-19 can be transmitted in similar ways.
These include:
Respiratory droplets. These are tiny droplets that are made when a person
who has the virus talks, sneezes, or coughs. If you inhale these droplets,
you can contract the virus.
Contaminated objects. Respiratory droplets containing virus can land on
things like countertops and doorknobs. You can contract the virus by
touching these things and then touching your mouth, nose, or eyes.
It’s also possible for a person to pass both viruses when they don’t have
any symptoms. This is called asymptomatic transmission.
Symptoms
Both 2009 H1N1 influenza and COVID-19 are respiratory infections that
share many symptoms in common. These can include:
fever and chills
fatigue
cough
body aches and pains
headache
sore throat
runny or stuffy nose
digestive symptoms like diarrhea and vomiting
One symptom that’s unique to COVID-19 is loss of smell and taste.
The 2009 H1N1 influenza and COVID-19 can range from mild to severe. In
both pandemics, certain groups were at an increased risk for severe
illness.
Risk factors
The groups at risk for complications from 2009 H1N1 influenza and COVID-19
have significant overlap. They include:
adults aged 65 and over
pregnant people
those with certain types of underlying health conditions
Underlying health conditions that can contribute to complications include:
chronic lung diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary
disorder (COPD), and cystic fibrosis
developmental disorders like Down syndrome
diabetes
heart disease, including heart failure or coronary artery disease
kidney disease
liver disease
neurological conditions, such as stroke and dementia
sickle cell disease
weakened immune system due to cancer treatments, HIV/AIDS, or
immunosuppressive drugs
Additional high risk groups for the 2009 H1N1 influenza
Some additional groups that were at a higher riskTrusted Source for
serious illness during the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic included:
children under the age of 5
people under the age of 19 who were receiving long-term aspirin therapy Additional high risk groups for COVID-19
Additionally, people with the following underlying health conditions are
at a higher riskTrusted Source for severe illness from COVID-19:
hypertension
having overweight or obesity
smoking
substance use disorders
Complications
Both 2009 H1N1 influenza and COVID-19 can lead to similar complications, including:
pneumonia
worsening of underlying health conditions
secondary bacterial infections
respiratory failure
inflammation of tissues of the heart, brain, or muscles
injury to the kidneys or liver
acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
sepsis
COVID-19 also has a few additional complications, including:
long-haul COVID
blood clots
multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C)

Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the

President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
