Reporting like this is for a reason...to spread fear,,,and give an "Excuse to give big pharma.......big dollars,,,,,,to find a solution.,,,,,,,Folks,,,,do we not see a pattern emerging here?.....The GOVERNMENT...identifies a problem,,,,,makes it larger than life,,,,then throws billions of dollars at it....well not at the problem ...but rather to those they think can come up with answers to the manufactured problem,,,,It is all just robbery of the tax payers money.,,,,They cannot even get stories straight on HOW MANY this flu has affected...reporting from a few to thousands...so what is the truth?......This will probably turn out like the home foreclosure rescue....Money allocated ,,,,but heads a different direction.
Folks, Over 34,000 die from the Flu each year in America. I have a distance relative who died from the flu 4 years ago. The Science of Possibilities are high that one virus strain kills several hundreds each year and CDC (we) does not know about it.
Next time, Mexico will be Smarter. Mexico will not report anything even if 4,000 die from the same Virus Strain.
I've chosen to ignore you for quite awhile. Tonight I chose not to.

What's funny is that it took you so long to say something about something that you found so offensive. What made you get the spine to do it now? Is it because you thought you had support from your buddies?
What's also funny is that there is someone else we both know, and that person runs ALL Americans into the ground and is pretty nasty. You just looooove him though. How is it that's okay, but if I voice my opinion against health care and guns, that isn't? I'm not slamming all Americans.
Widget 101 == there you have it, the voice of reason. ====36,000 people die of flu every year. ================This isn't the Bubonic Plague============.
May I add that if you keep yourself in a bubble and don't know how to take care of yourself or your family when you are ill, please learn. Keeping yourself in a bubble only prevents your body from developing immunity and you put yourself at risk of becoming the fatality you so fear if you have no immunity. Here's how to take care of yourself. It's the basics, keep the fever down with aspirin, or for a child baby aspirin, and cool cloths. Be sure to intake plenty of fluids. If the fever rises and you cannot keep the fever down after efforts and your body dehydrates even with fluids, go to the hospital. The body has natural immunities. Sinus is not the Swine Flu. Allergies are not the Swine Flu. Dysentary is not the Swine Flu. Every Flu sympton may not be the Swine Flu. This is media fed panic. Ease up and learn to take care of yourself. ===As for the money, we all know where it will go - to the Pharmaceutical companies to develop a new and improved flu serum the doctor can inject in you at a high price tag and profit for them. It will still come to late for this bout of flu, but it won't matter. We'll all feel better. Mr. President, if you wanted to give 1.5 billion dollars so all Americans could be inoculated with a serum that was developed and ready at no charge, I would say nothing. Is that the case?

Well, I'm a non-partisan voter, and disagree with Obama's bailout of his billionaire Wall Street bankers and buddies, but this thread is not about that.
It's about a dangerous disease that threatens all of humanity. So please, stay on topic. There are a lot of other places where we could all debate politics. ST

Indeed fellow citizen. For this grouping, especially of different species, encourages the mutation of bacteria and virus alike, which while usually benign or simply mildly infectious, can become lethal to humans. And is in fact responsible for the common influenza strains we see every year. ST

You don't need to answer that, I know why.
