Pandemic (Swine) Flu

Mmmmm - even though the advice says don't go to the doctors, just ring up (as if she has it, she will be infecting people with lower resistance).

Yes i know but the only thing she hasn't had if you listen to her is death though she claims to have come close many times. Sadly she is one of many that will be seeing more into basic old colds and suchlike thanks to all the headlines.

I dont think its just the media. WHO have just raised the pandemic level from 3 - 4. Its not looking good.

"We will call it Mexican flu. We won't call it swine flu," said Mr Litzman, who belongs to the ultra-religious United Torah Judaism party.

It's always the mexicans starting it.

It's getting worse

And on that note, from boingboing (rest of the article in the link)

"Swine Flu Was Genetically Manipulated to Target Conspiracy Theorists
It's true: If you own a tin hat, you're ten times more likely to contract the virus. Seriously, though, could the Internets please stop forwarding those increasingly out-of-context videos of Dallas County medical director John Carlo? In some recent interviews, Carlo referred somewhat clunkily to culturing samples of H1N1 in the laboratory. This quote is now being used as "evidence" in a delightful meme claiming that H1N1 is a man-made virus, wholly created in the laboratory. As Carlo himself has pointed out, that is not remotely the case. In reality, those video quotes are actually Carlo referring to the common practice of taking samples of a virus and growing it in the lab until you get enough of the virus that you can analyze the thing. That's how researchers learn what makes a specific virus unique and how they figure out ways to combat it. Scientists studying cultured samples of a naturally-occurring virus =/= evil plot to create a man-made super-virus. Please, tell your friends."

I can't help but agree with your final comment - but perhaps not in the way you would like.

It seems there is a word missing in your vocabulary, namely 'perspective' - you won't agree, and I couldn't care if you do or not, but until a disaster happens your opinion is just that & is no more than speculation.

- take that gamble, if you want, be justified IF millions of people die, you have no more idea of the true probability of that than any of us, but you just shout louder about the worst case to suit your agenda.

- more people die in road accidents than from swine flu, at present - perspective???

50million died in th 1918 pandemic - lets put it in perspective shall we.

May i also point out that YOUR opinion is no more than speculation.

Is there such a thing as 'conspiracy theorist's digest'? Some people appear to have it as their main news source...

I do not see why a cock-up by a company making vaccines leads to (from the article I linked to) -

"The latest bioterrorism attack by the New World Order is likely a beta test. Yes, it is a bioterrorism attack. It was a hybrid strain created from human, swine, and bird flu from North America, Europe, and Asia. It was created in a laboratory. This doesn’t happen in nature."

The whole thing is nonsense.

I would prefer to follow sensible & non-scaremongering news (bit hard at the moment unfortunately), mixed with what I learned during my Molecular & Cellular Biology degree & subsequent nine years working in biotech, than believe a load of half-baked conspiracy theory nonsense about bioweapon tests using manmade chimaeric viruses.

It *does* happen in nature, & not everything is automatically the fault of some sinister NWO
