We're all going to die part three-this time the flu

[MUDSHARK]

Thought Loser would be all over this. Armegeddon, fire, and brimstone dont go out. Hunker down. Repent Repent Repent.

I do have sympathy for the victims but the press can sure run with a story.

 

[MidnightSensi]

Yeah, I'm not that scared about this.

I'm even so sketched out lately by the media that I'd even go so far to say this sounds like a ploy to sell flu vaccine. Ever tried that poop? It's side effects are tiredness, stomach aches, acheyness, vomitting, etc.... kind of like the f**ckin' flu.

 

[res6jya6]

I've never gotten a vaccine before. All I hear is bad stuff about them.

Rarely see a doctor, rarely care about my health... smoke a pack a day and I haven't gotten sick since I was... eight?

I realize that smoking will but my life short... but in all reality --- what wont?

Here is the thing we really have to worry about:

In all reality ... not smoking won't cut your life short.

Woah dude... way to go on quitting! I've thought about it before, but before I can act, I end up caving and light up. I'm a really weak-willed person

We're all gonna die.

Just some of us are working harder at it than others.

BTW- hurricane season is just around the corner. Need to start stocking up on alcohol.

A new strain of flu... Yawn... Do the pharmaceutical companies need a bailout and are receiving it by creating hysteria. The regular flu kills upwards of 60,000 people per year. I'm not worried about this new strand that has killed less than 100.

Oh wah wah wah – stop your whining! The swine flu won’t be our downfall – the large (and as of yet undiscovered) asteroid hurtling towards Earth & set to impact on 12/21/2012 will be out ultimate demise! Don’t you people know your dooms day prophesies?

 

[haraldo]

Well, the press always need some kind of potential disaster to write about.....

Well we're all gonna die when the sun suddenly gets much bigger...... in sth like 5 billion years
Perhaps it may even happen sooner than this.......

I caution you against dismissing this as unserious. If you think it isn't I suggest you review Calculus and the logistic growth equation. Once you've understood this function and it's model of population growth you will then be able to understand the seriousness of any new disease or strain. Our goal is to prevent the growth from spiraling out of control.
I remind you the last flu epidemic killed millions. No reason to play games. Besides this gives the media something better to cover than tea parties.

1 death is serious to me. That's someones family member.

Plus different people groups have less resistance to the flu.

I think if anything this took to long to get serious recognition. It should have been contained to Mexico and their borders locked down. Disease isn't a game and the wrong one can wipe out 1/4th of our population with ease.

As well pointed out 60,000 people die from the flu each year. I suggest you get vaccinated to prevent the spread of the disease. My hope is someday we can eradicate it.

I think most people are taking it seriously (we received an order of hand sanitizer & tissues at work) but I also agree that some in the news media come across as it being a doom & gloom situation.

I do agree however with getting a flu shot. Yeah, you might feel crumby for a little while, but the alternative is always worse.

Yes, but what is the reality and the truth about them? Fear mongering by stars is not where one should get their science from

A couple of the mass destruction epidemics, 1918 and one in the 1970s had a precursor, just like this one. Next year may be a wake up call. Certainly in 1918 nothing could have been done, lack of knowledge and know how.
But, with that and the 1970s case of preludes, we better be prepared for next year.

Yes, we will all die Some sooner than later
And, if one repents, is that a free pass?

 

[gmichael]

Aaah

Aaah...

AAAAAHH....

CHOOOOOOOO........

Oink.

 

[jamie2112]

I ain't sceered.........I am sure something will happen though. The pharmacudical companies are losing too much money because of medical marajuana that I would not at all be suprised if they created something to make them money J/K..... in all seriousness though it really doesn't seem as bad as "fox news" says it is 60,000 people a year die from the flu this is not even close to a epidemic...IMO of course

For me, maybe. For you ... that's not for me to say.

 

[rnatalli]

What bothers me most about this whole thing is the advice. Cover your mouth, wash your hands, etc... People now have to be reminded to do things that I consider to be common courtesy and common sense.

WHAT?! From my understanding, it was common courtesy to cough on every living person, wipe your arse and not wash your hands, and to transfer as much disgusting bodily fluid to every surface you touch

Nod, and who is to say the flu I had a month ago wasn't swine flu. It's not like it kills you if your taking care of it.
