    Not worried by this at all. Just as long as the bacon continues to flow.

    Nah that's more like an unintentional side effect.

    Newspaper editors the world over will be rubbing their hands with glee at the prospect of being able to cause mass hysteria for a few weeks/months.

    In the meantime politicians the world over will be rubbing their hands with glee at the prospect of not having their problems on the front pages for a few weeks/months.

    Might as well post the whole thing.



    Personally I'm not worried about it. When healthy people start dying in this country from it, then I'll start being concerned. From what I've heard, it's not so much the 'flu that kills you, but it makes you much more vulnerable to other things (like pnuemonia).

    Gotta love a mass cull of the human race

    Someone has set up a google maps page tracking the cases here.
    I don't mean to sound cold, or cruel, or vicious, but I am so that's the way it comes out.

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

    I think a few words from Lance-Corporal Jack Jones (dads army) will do here:


    "Don't Panic, Don't Panic"


    Apparently the Government has put it plan into action. Can't say that fills me with any confidence lol But I won't be loosing sleep over it all.
