I'm bemused as to why people brush this off as just another scare story???

 

If it was allowed to spread, the results could be catastrophic. If the governments just ignored it, then people would complain, and now that they're raising concerns and making more anti-viral medicines, people are still complaining.

 

What can they do to look good in peoples eyes?

 

Its the whole hysteria that gets me, I totally understand they have to contain it but it just smells of bullshit to me.

 

Silvah, it's the way the press are treating it. Instead of just giving a balanced view of it and saying anyone presenting with symptoms should just seek medical help as it's clearly treatable, they are instead peddling stories of doom and mass extinction. And I'm fucked off with it. I want a return to the days when the news sought out facts, not told everyone they're going to die. We've imported this sensationalist nonsense from US news channels and it's shit.

 

Spot on.

 

Sky News are a disgrace, 8 cases in Britain alone it said before as if there was only ten of us in the whole country.

 

8 in a nation of over 60m people is a drop in the ocean, 8000 I might say fair enough but 8?

There might be method to some of the hysteria madness though. If it stops even one scruff from not washing his hands it might save someone a very uncomfortable 72 hours with their head in the toilet.

Obama dedicated 1.5 billion dollars to this flu, way to tighten those purse stings Barry.

I'm getting really annoyed now, influenza kills thousands every year.

It's like killer bee's it's just something exciting for the news to talk about for a while before everyone realises it's no worse than influenza. I saw one news talking about where cases had been reported and there was 1 case reported in Canada so they put their graphic up showing all of Canada infected because one baby got sick.

If your not old, a baby, weak or incredible poor and dirty there is nothing to worry about.

Bit aren't they the people we want to cull....

[Hermes]

Let me know when it gets to 8 million; then I'll give a fuck.

Swine Flu.

 

Kicking that dead bald bitch out of the papers since April 09.

I hope Kermit’s OK

[Melchett]

I told my mate to go and get tested for this swine flu.

 

He's never been to Mexico but fuck me he has been with some pigs

I think the main issue is with the media and not the government. In my opinion, the government have taken proactive steps in this and seem to be doing their best to prevent a potential outbreak.

 

The media, on the other hand, seem intent on whipping up a shitstorm of panic and fear. See the war on terror, paedophiles and the recession.

300 odd in a world of billions.

The G20 protests was the worst example of that I've ever seen. They spent weeks telling everyone how bad it was going to be, and then deployed their cameras into the middle of it, ready for when they hoped it would kick off. One report I saw even profiled the leaders of each group who were due to be there that day, and one was a crank uni professor who was basically calling for a riot.

I don't dig on swine so I should be ok.

Just playing poker and one of the people on the table had PIG in their username. I'd like to tell you that as I was turning my $10 in $30 I made absolutely no piss poor, swine fever jokes aimed at them.

 

I'd like to tell you that; but it'd be a lie.

[Melchett]

Apparently the symptoms of swine flu are; sweating, excessive body odour and laziness.

It's at this time I'd like to, if I may, conjur up the words of the great Ricky Bobby and Cal Noughton Jnr and say that I urge you never go to tijuana.
