The last time they were worried about swine flu in the US was in the mid 1970\'s

Everyone freaked out. They vaccinated a bunch of people at a cost of 500million dollars

results

swine flu = 1 death
vaccinations = 30 + deaths.

And You know as bad as a pandemic would be. There are too many f-ing people around as it is. Most of them are mouth breathing dolts who simply hate and make babies.

I say we are about due to clean house and start anew.

Don\'t even go there.  That book freaked me out in so many ways because this type of outbreak is quite possible...

... almost 75% in NYC.... expect this number to skyrocket !!

how terrifying! they are saying this virus is targeting young and otherwise healthy adults (ie, those probably not vaccinated against the flu!) and the strain is resistant to 2/4 of our anti-influenza drugs.....

im fucking flipping. especially since i was in NYC last week.... and now i have a fever/sore throat....

TAMIFLU PRICES ARE SKYROCKETING!!! STOCK UP NOW BEFORE IT\'S TOO LATE!!!

Dave, that\'s what i\'m talking about.  Before you know it, pharmacies will be like, we\'re out of tamiflu yaydayadyayada.   Back order. People freak out.    Its the old routine.  Seen this before.

this is just a huge distraction from our horrible economy.  <----theory #2.

Exactly... besides the human population\'s way out of control... something\'s got to give.

I\'m not going to lie. Since hearing that a 2 year old in Texas died from this, I am a little worried about my daughter. I\'ve seen those runny-nosed rugrats in her class. They\'re all crawling with germs. Ick. I wouldn\'t be surprised if it came this way-one of those runts will no doubt be responsible.

Either that or you guys fall into the group with no young children...  Not happy at all to hear that a 23 month old child died in Texas today from this flu...

I\'m just saying that 7 years ago, before I had my daughter, I would be right up there with not worrying about it. But when you have a child, at least for me, it changes the way you see things. I worry about things that wouldn\'t have phased me in the past. I\'m a different person in a lot of ways. Am I ridiculous? Sometimes. But I was ridiculous before I had a child, so some things never change.
