On Friday the CDC reported that the H1N1 virus is now widespread in 46 U.S. states - a level of flu activity that is usually not seen until later in the winter. Since the virus began spreading, millions of Americans have been infected, at least 20,000 have been hospitalized and 1,000 have died - including nearly 100 children.
