The Centers for Disease Control say that those who were born before 1957 might be carrying some immunity to the current H1N1 flu because of outbreaks of related viruses in the 1950s. Meanwhile, the rest will be ready for an outbreak in 50 years. The CDC also has images of the virus, seen here in blue (the other option was black and white, which means grays). The CDC is a very interesting place.
