Swine flu explained in graphics - collection
When a story like the Swine Flu breks, it’s natural to look for graphics to help explain the facts. But how to tell this story in graphics?
I think the graphic agencies have put out some explainers that seems to have decided how the rest of the media covered the story so far, - and I’ll be honest to say, that I haven’t really learned something new from them. They mostly look like it’s the Bird Flu-graphics reappearing with a new headline and a new animal in silhouette.
I’ll try something new here and invite everyone to participate with the examples. Simply click the ‘Add Graphic’-line underneath, and upload a flu-graphic right into the gallery below. It would be great to have all kind of flu-graphics to learn from, so don’t hold back …
If we succeed and end up with a collection, we’ll probably start to discuss the graphics too.

I love the look of these graphics. I’m not sure I love all the pig images. I believe I read that this bug has little to do with pigs nowadays and the strain is called that from an outbreak from way back.
