DWB,

I agree, I dont think it will become a problem.... The sick and elderly will be the most affected.... Poor people in poor countries. But keep in mind the regular flu kills tons every year. If this does get as big as that it will pose a problem. And thats what health organizations really want to prevent. They want to prevent Its spread to that mass level because it is more difficult to treat than the regular flu at this time especially in the kind of people who are normally affected by flu..

Will this be the end of man kind like the media pitches it to be and the fear you see from some people? No.......

But can this be a problem if people ignore it? Potentially yes.
The media really should talk about simple things like handwashing. But its not glorified enough as showing someone panicing in a mask. Im with ya dirty white boy. We arent that much in disagreement about the media hype.

I know doctors offices are getting calls llike crazy for tamaflu and vaccines for the swine flu.
Its pissing them off. My wife and her pharmacy has soccer moms in panics wanting that shit. Its ridiculous.
Hey people how bout washing your fucking hands?


Dirty White Boy, you've been dodging bullets it seems though. Thats good for you mang.
But be careful of things like AIDS. The problems are very real. And I think the media has been lacking in its coverage and exposure of it. Places like Africa and India its a real issue.

Its places like these that the swine flus and such will have the greatest impacts.
But no one cares.
