Yeah, people who are sick definitely need to stay home. wearing a mask doesn't help. It just makes you look stupid.
Most people take vitamin C when they get sick. However vitamin D & B vitamins are much more effective.
The difference between H1N1 and influenza is influenza usually dies off during the summer months. H1N1 didn't, it's still out there and gaining strength. The deaths from this aren't being reported but there are people dying from this.
In most cases the deaths are from a secondary infection. The influenza weekens the imune system allowing the H1N1 to take hold. And with an already depressed immune system, it's difficult to get over. That's why people who contract the H1N1 without the flu usually get over it with only mild symptoms.
One of the most common signs to look for are flu symptoms followed by feeling better then coming down with flu symptoms again. If this happens to you get to a hospital right away!
As a side note, people born before 1950 have an immunity to H1N1. That's because they would be old enough to have gone through and been exposed to the great flu epidemic. That epidemic was similar to the H1N1 and they will have an immunity to it.
