Swine Flu outbreak

Alright, Lets get a few things down hear, 100 Hispanics have died of swine flu, meaning this flu has the potential to kill, even at its early stage.

So why are the WHO taking it up to Phase 5 so early? Because, It has spread from Mexico to US and Canada and other parts of the world. When this happens it HAS to be moved to Phase 5, not because its deadly, but because its spreadable.

There are two other things the world must take into mind.

One, There is a thing called an "Incubation period." ...This flu has been around for 1 week so far we won't see its full potential until the next 3 or 4 weeks.

Two, They, or it. Could evolve into something more. Stronger, more spreadable, more resistant to cold, heat, moister, ...Even drugs.

Am I worried about it? No, Not yet. Just like the WHO and the government I am worried to stopping it before it spreads more, so we DON'T need to see if it can become deadly.

These are just precautions taken. "Better safe then sorry."

And now you know! Woo hoo! XD

I agree!

Don't get too excited so far we have at least eight confirmed cases of swine flu. However the shots you should have had by now are supposed to be at least 50% effective against Swine flu.
Best we can do now is keep an eye out and wait for it to die. As long as people continue any courses of medication they're given then it'll just die off unable to mutate.

Oh, what do you know. It's sitting on my doorstep.

One of my Coworkers had it. They made him GTFO the store. Frankly, I took one look at the freight they sent out tonight, and I'd rather have the swine flu.

There are four cases in Ireland. ^ ^

But I'll die from STDs before I die from swine flu.

Great, now there's 2 cases in Wilmington (which is the city right next to where I live) and there's supposedly 1 case in the town where I live. I mean, what the hell? Oh well. I'm still not worried. I'm pretty sure those people that have it are making sure they're not spreading it around...or not. Maybe I should use duct tape to seal my doors to keep the swine flu out!! XD (That was hilarious, Sabre of Pain!!)

OMFG. Everyone at my school thinks I have Swine Flu because I went to Texas a week ago and came back sick.... and I still haven't gotten better. But hell, if I have Swine Flu I'm going to make sure I get as many people infected before I go down... BWAHAHAHA!!!
