    Six years later.

    In Germany, due to the swine flu (H1N1), a huge panic.

    See link:

    One can see that the children aged between 0 and 14 years were affected most.
    Colds lead to poor hearing. This makes especially the children are particularly affected prior to language acquisition. Effects such as developmental delays, we have not been able to discover more. The probability is given.

    Sorry but I'm struggling to understand what this panic is about or what is new here. Is it about glue ear folowing swine flu?

    In Germany, was built up by the media a great excitement. The people must get vaccinated. H1N1 virus will acquire each and so on. On the website are all the diseases to be collected. H1N1 has hit especially many children. My question was egend:

    We have already known effects?
    For example, children with developmental delay in language acquisition.
    Perhaps many children have ear infection?
