We've had these scares up and down for several years now, but it's true that statistically speaking we're overdue for a serious flu strain. This does seem to be person to person transmission, and if that's the case then I guess the balloon has just gone up. Time will tell.

Yeah, well -

I'm not worrying, I'm over 21 (smirk)I've had my go. These scares come and go but this one seems to be getting a low key treatment by the media which is cause for concern in itself and the demographic it's hitting and the rapid spread seems - dunno, especially worrying. New Scientist
have an interesting article too.

Shrug. We're well overdue. This planet is fantastically over-populated. ::shrug:: What will be I guess.

You'd be even more worried if you lived in Southern California LOL.

Well, not really - people will be getting on planes, crossing into other South American countries - if this truly has the makings of a pandemic, I suspect the damage has already been done.

::shrug:: I'm not worrying, I've had a good life. *g*

If it's the real thing, our turn will come soon enough. *g*
