What the hell happened to Swine Flu?

[Fingerprint]

Well what can I say, I was right after all. It was just a con to instill a little fear in to the population...

Why not? I wouldn't put it past them. Look at the "Bird-Flu" and "Mad Cow Disease" (C.J.D.) epidemics.

The question was asked if Swine-Flu was a distraction from our economic crisis. Look it up if you don't believe me. (Type in my user name and swine flu and it should be one of the first links.)

I love being right.

It was so powerful, that the virus ifected itself, and died.

Suprise suprise, it's not really a threat! Or at least not a significant one. You see, NORMAL FLU kills the same amount of people that this special swine flu has...

On that note, who remembers SARS, West Nile Virus, Avian Flu, Mad Cow Disease, that crap that was in the veggies(E.Coli I think), etc? These were all diseases that underwent the same process: the media sensationalized them in order to attract ratings from concerned people.

In the end, this will be the death of us... for when the TRUE mega disease hits, everyone will think: Wow, the news is crying wolf again! And by the time people realize that they're wrong, it will be far too late.

Yeah, except if something did make a resurgence most governments have programs in place that watch this stuff and will do the over reacting for us. Which I am totally cool with, as their overreactions have yet to do anything but puff a lot of smoke and make people feel better about their cushy jobs for the health services.

You may dismiss the media hype, but don't dismiss the danger.

It's not gone yet.

Nice danny, nice.

Swine flu was eaten by the great green arkleseizure, who then sneezed it out onto a hankie, thus creating a parallel universe... it's true, the almighty bob told me so.
