So we should all breath a sigh of relief and only get really worried when Bear Flu is discovered?
Can't we just set Chuck Norris on this flu, and any future strains?
We need to let these frigging germs know who's boss.

I fear Shark Flu.
Sharks are immune to cancer. If they catch / create a flu, then even cockroaches are in danger.

I drink water

I could catch anything if i had a glass of unboiled / un frozen water (IE tap) water.

At least with Flame Wars shut down, you can't catch it here.

I know no one has heard about it, but about 20 people in Chicago have already died from swine flu. The government has stepped in like they usually do and hushed up everything before news of it left Illinois. Apparently, Dr. Manhattan has failed to be seen.

The CDC does not hide health statistics like that. Best check their web site.

You don't get it do you? Dr. Manhattan is missing!!!

It's like Armageddon out here in Illinois! People are wearing masks laced with SARS so that they don't have to catch the Swine Flu!

OK Chicken Little. Here is the web site CDC Swine Flu.

Is anyone really surprised that nobody has died in the U.S. yet? I mean, it's not like our health care is better than Mexico's. Oh wait...

oh yeah, I triple dog dare ya to get med flighted to mexico the next time you get into a car crash, and need a trauma center...
the fact that you may lose your house if you dont have the correct insurance, does not mean we do not have a great health care system. It just means we have a very expensive one, and not everyone has an equal opportunity to take advantage of it.

Is fitz's sarcasm detector broken, or is it so not, that mine must be? Do I even make sense any more?

Yes, and, as with the 1918 flu, the general health of the population can be a large factor in the results. The higher unemployment, lower nutritional support, and high tension from public violence in Mexico can contribute to a higher death rate.

I called my friend in Chicago, and she happily reports that the sky is not falling there.

I "may" have shared a "cigarette" with a friend who may have been exposed to the swine flu. Should I just shoot myself now, to save the suffering?

Yes

Obviously, your friend is not taking the appropriate drugs so graciously given out by our health care providers. Not that I am, but I can certainly mimic it..... or can I?????

They also had no plan, or any vaccines. They are just telling their citizens what to do to best avoid contact with it. I literally read in the paper today that they are telling people to avoid hospitals.

It is obvious that swine flu is spread thru taco shells. Avoid those and you will be fine.

Is it weird that Mexico City has this outbreak, then a n earthquake in close proximity to the ancient Mayan culture center? 2012 is closing in....can we bring back Dagip for his insights?

PS Why did he get perma banned? I liked his crazy theories.

It's just like WWZ... Good real world exercise everyone. Get out your zombie survival plans and review them with your children.
