In 1918 there was a flu pandemic that killed millions worldwide, 675,000 in the US. There is a link from that strain to the current H1N1 virus. According to http://1918.pandemicflu.gov/ it came in three waves, the second being the most deadly.
I don't know, but personally, I'd rather be safe than sorry.
