I'm not necessarily saying H1N1 isn't legit, however the reasoning of just because medical doctors say so isn't enough IMO.
Doctors are only people, and they're following what they're told by higher ups just like everyone else. If the medical authorities in each country say something is harmful, doctors will agree. So having said that, what if the medical authorities got it wrong or overestimated the results, or worse are trying to profit from it.
Look at what happened in the US financial markets based on what "financial experts" were saying. Mass scamming and fiscal irresponsibility so a few could get filthy rich. Your average financial advisor would have told you the opposite was coming based on what they know, read and were told within the industry. What makes doctors so different?
I know we'd all love to think health care is one fraud proof area, but it's huge business and you'd have to be pretty ignorant to think no one is trying to profit off something like H1N1 and the vaccine.
