Will Sanjay Gupta have to wear one of those CDC suits that we saw in the movie Outbreak, the next time he's on camera?
Will they make Anderson Cooper wear a surgical mask and "keep them honest?"
Look at most polls around, and most people aren't falling for the swine flu scare. The media is pushing it hard though. It's sad, because you can tell it's one big sell.

yep, and Al Gores company is ready to cash in on it.
• LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The swine flu outbreak is likely to benefit one of the most prolific and successful venture capital firms in the United States: Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Thomson Reuters Private Equity Week reported on Friday.
Shares of the two public companies in the firm’s portfolio of eight Pandemic and Bio Defense companies — BioCryst Pharmaceuticals and Novavax — jumped Friday on news that the swine flu killed a reported 60 people in Mexico and has infected people in the United States.
The World Health Organization (WHO) said the virus appears to be susceptible to Roche’s flu drug Tamiflu, also known as oseltamivir, but not to older flu drugs such as amantadine. http://nwoobserver.wordpress.com/2009/04...

There are confirmed cases around the world-that makes this outbreak pandemic.
Before the onset of symptoms is the most contagious period. For every person actively showing symptoms there are a minimum of 10 who have been exposed, those ten become 100, then 1000-continue the math progression and you will understand the extent of the danger.

I saw some of the commercials from the Government done in the 70's about swine flu.
I bet no one knew that it was a scare tactic back then as well.
Swine flu is NOT new. Its 30 years old.

If it is maybe we can get Anthrax to provide background music for it while it happens.

Depends on the viewers, doesn't it? If everybody keeps their heads clear then no.
