    Re: swine flu.... are you worried?

    Look into my eye.... do I look worried?

    It's really mass media hysteria generated to cover the news so that all the cock ups that the government have done do not get the air-time they deserve.

    Anyway, what we all worried for? The worlds over-populated and the gene-pool has to put it bluntly been contaminated with lower quality genes.

    Maybe a flu epidemic like in the early 20th Century is just what we need now to combat rising foods costs (due to demand) and it might even free up a few homes for those wanting to get on the ladder

    Need a decent excuse to get off of work this week, swine flu seems ideal. The symptoms (should I survive it) sound a lot more enjoyable then the week I have planned at work

    Not yet, but if you want to start a panic, wear a surgical mask while using the underground

    Re: swine flu.... are you worried?

    I'm not really worried about swine flu as such (well at the moment). But it does make me think about whatever is next, in terms of the future and another strain or virus that is hardcore, but one medical science can not handle. And then we're all f*cked.

    Don't forget to add the ground black pepper to the inside of the mask. yeah your nose will burn and you will sneeze but the picture on their faces would be legendary.

    I'll only be worried if by next week the toll reaches 1000 within the UK and it has spread to people that have not been abroad etc.
