From the Russian Unian News Agency (via Google translate) comes a report of the severity of the flu in the Bukovina region of the Ukraine (an area split between Romania and Ukraine).  The translation is rough but the important points and a second story link here follow...

All victims of the virus in Bukovina (22 persons aged 20 to 40 years) died not from bilateral pneumonia, as previously thought, as a result of viral distress syndrome, ie the total destruction of the lungs.

First comes the cardio-pulmonary insufficiency, and consequently develop cardiogenic shock, which causes cardiac arrest and death. About this newspaper "Doba" said Chief of Chernivtsi regional forensic bureau, PhD, Professor Victor Bachinsky.

"During a bilateral pneumonia observed some morphological picture. Regarding these deaths, there is no such morphological picture. The virus, which causes death, very aggressive, he did not strike the trachea, and immediately gets into the lungs and causes strong swelling and continuous hemorrhage. To such as lead mixed types of parainfluenza and influenza A/N1N1. This is a very toxic strain, which has not yet succumbed to the Ministry of Health worked out a method of treatment ", - said Victor Bachinsky.

...and the virus is extremely toxic, spreading through the lungs AND the eyes...

Victor Bachinsky, which is part of the initiators of the treatment, noted that the virus is extremely toxic, it is able to penetrate not only through inhalation but also through the eye membrane. Because Chernovtsy scientists recommend in any case not to give up the masks and the period of the epidemic even wearing goggles.

It's not pneumonia! This total lung. This strain is very toxic, and if the immune system is weak, there is bleeding in the lungs. In light is the smallest structure - acinus. Looks like a bunch of grapes. The man breathed - in this bunch of grapes went into oxygen. On the surface of the acinus are the capillaries, where red blood cells saturate with oxygen and give blood, which accounts for all tissues and organs receive food in the body.

And once the virus enters the lungs - in the acinus, and immediately comes hemorrhage. A continuous hemorrhage ... It takes several hours. In the blood fibrin is formed, and from it - giolinovaya membrane as a plastic bag. It envelops the acinus, and the person breathes in oxygen, but it is not transferred to the tissues. And people just gasps. There comes a cardio-pulmonary insufficiency and cardiogenic shock. Man dies of cardiogenic shock. And there is no pneumonia. Pneumonia - an inflammation, which is treated with antibiotics. And here antibiotics at no stage did not help. There should be absolutely different treatment.
