Chicken little is always running around saying the sky is falling. The thing is, one of these days it really will fall. The flu is viral, so antibiotics are worthless. Vaccines take forever to develop. A good case of the Spanish Flu -- given the speed at which we traverse the globe -- would cut a wide swath through humanity.
So is this "The End"? Probably not. Just more media hype. Sellin' papers and advertising.
Damn, what ever happened to West Nile?
