Not likely. This is an all new strain, which many viroligists feel was engineered because it seems impossible that it could contain all of the genes that it does.. It contains genes from the original 1918 H1N1 Flu Virus, the Avian Flu, and two new H3N2 genes from Eurasia. Watch the second vid I posted above. Even though it seems like a advertisement at the end, The Doc points out a lot of facts about the recent outbreak.
