This whole thing is asinine. The numbers are low, but everybody has to fucking panic like it's the end of days. Let's see, wash your filthy hands, don't suck on the face of a mexican, and if you get a cough, buy some Tamiflu. Swine Flu problem solved. We've got about the same number of deaths from this retard flu as we do from bee stings. Where's the general outrage and paranoia over real shit? How about some awareness and respect to something really dangerous, like MRSA or VRSA? Oooooooh, right, it doesn't have a sexy news name that newscasters can put up a fancy graphic and add ominous music to. God, we're fucking paranoid idiots. I can't wait until some idiot swimming in Florida gets bit by a shark and the news jumps back on their annual "Menace in the Ocean" kick. At least the footage of mangled flesh is more entertaining to watch.

Now thats paranoia, we have well over 50 cases in queens and brooklyn. Everyones just using universal precautions here and most of the cases ar every mild. the regular flu was much worse this year anyway.

The funny thing is the people scooping up all the masks at Home Depot thinking that they're going to do anything to help. Besides blocking large, particulate matter, they're useless against any microscopic particles. Even the the shit in the hospital isn't fine enough to block the transmission of the flu. Fucking placebo FTMFL. And now the reports are coming in that it lacks specific proteins for rapid duplication. Surprise, we've been duped again by moronic news programs looking for this years panic story.

And for fuck's sake, less than 350 cases out of 6.7 billion people. Even if they're under reporting, the percentage of people with this retard flu is microscopic. Again, there's a greater danger out there:

more fun to fix too, the mangaled flesh that is. I am starting a string of 4 straight nights so this should be real interesting. had one the other night who worked at a local airport and was washing aplane then vomited a few times so was sent here to be checked for swine flu. I told her to send her boss over so I can talk to him then inflict some blunt trauma on him
