If Colin was sick we'd probably all have the virtual version of Swine Flu.

I've got to imagine that the prime victim's for this virus are going to be young children and the elderly. So most of those people are not going to have jobs. In fact, just about none of them will have jobs. So I doubt it will open up many jobs at all.

It will open up jobs for future generations then.

Um... it's called... Pandemic?  It's a cooperative board game where the players work to combat the spread of various (abstracted to colored wooden cubes with no name) diseases and find cures to stop them for good.  It's not a terribly deep game but it plays quickly.

according to CNN this morning 34,000 people die from the regular flu virus in the US every year.  compare that to the 1 confirmed US death so far by the swine flu.

I think it is a lor of bother over nothing.  If it is caught and treated early, there is virtually not fatality rate.  Im more worried about ebola than swine flu.

This is just another case of the media hyping some tiny risk factor to scare people enough to sell papers / advertising and get attention.

It happened with school shootings.
It happened with shark attacks.
It happened with child abductions.
Now it is happening with Swine Flu.

All of these things put together probably kill less people a year than are killed by bathtub accidents.  But the media plays it up and everyone thinks that they are in great danger.

ah.. you are right. but the way i see this "swine flu" is worse here are two reasons why.

1.swine flu kills people and kills people faster then cancer.

2.it is spreading awhole lot faster then any other sickness i have sceen.
One person?

Yes, but oddly, here in the US, it is not killing people at all.

You should have seen the stomach virus I caught from the baby last December.  He was sick on Monday night.  I caught it from him, my wife caught it from me.  Our friend who was with us on Monday night caught it, gave it to the people in her lab.  Except her boss.  Who took it home and gave it to her husband.  Who took it to the main campus and gave it to all the people in HIS lab.  All of these illnesses were reported to me on Friday evening, 100 hours after my son first yakked all over his car seat.
