Do you know what the actual numbers were? I don't actually remember any cases where they confirmed that it was swine flu, but this is over 30 years ago and I'm just going by memory. I got curious and have been searching online too but haven't found much of anything yet. I know that there were a dozen people dead and a couple of hundred paralyzed from Guillain-Barre syndrome that was blamed on the vaccinations.
