CNN Headline says: 'As the number of swine flu cases rises around the world, so is a gradual backlash -- with some saying the threat the virus poses is overblown. By Monday, 985 cases of the virus, known as influenza A (H1N1), had been confirmed in 20 countries, the World Health Organization said. The number of fatalities was at 26, including one in the United States.
