Swine flu
Do you think there will be a swine flu pandemic, or is the media over blowing this,
like the bird flu, out of proportion?
Is swine flu 'the big one' or a flu that fizzles?

Look at the difference between the US and Mexico....Mexico is filthy to begin with, so no wonder so many people have died down there. That is why the press is having a field day with this. Last time there was a swine flu scare in the US, one person died.....but thousands of others suffered major sideaffects due to a rushed (by the government) antivirus/vaccine. I say in the US is will more than likely run its course and fizzle out. Mexico.....well thats another story.

I think it has been here. I think a lot of the flu cases that people have experienced were SF just not documented and now the cat is out of the bag. Think about it, suddenly it appears and now there is panic in the streets.

As long as people take precautions there will not be a pandemic. BUT as bad as things are now, if people let up and this bug gets a hold of the populace there will be utter devastation of the economy. Do not slack off and allow your watchfulness to drop.
