  • Study: New flu inefficient in attacking people (AP)

    A physician holds samples of patients suspected of being infected with swine flu at a hospital in Buenos Aires, Wednesday, July 1, 2009.  Health authorities have warned that while the swine flu peak has passed in Mexico, the Southern Hemisphere is at risk as it heads deeper into its winter flu season as the nation's swine flu death toll surged to 35. (AP Photo/Ezequiel Pontoriero)AP - With swine flu continuing to spread around the world, researchers say they have found the reason it is — so far — more a series of local blazes than a wide-raging wildfire. The new virus, H1N1, has a protein on its surface that is not very efficient at binding with receptors in people's respiratory tracts, researchers at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology report in Friday's edition of the journal Science.
