Goddammit. You are not going to die from the Bird Flu! [View All]

[Dark]

Did you die from SARS? West Nile?

Each of those had 'experts' talking out of their ass about how these diseases were going to annihalate mankind.

The 'experts' just want their fifteen minutes. That 150 million figure? The 'expert' was chastised for being so alarmist, and the next day dropped it to 7 million.

Now, there are 6 BILLION people in the world. Who do you think is more likely to die from this disease, if it does become 'pandemic'? A person who has no clean water, pharmacies, drugs, and are starving as we speak? Do you know how many people that describes?

Or Joe Six-Pack, who is sitting on his couch feasting on pork rinds and Budweiser while his wife sits next to him taking a prozac, ritalin, zoloft, zantac, tylenol, and zyrtec while they're roasting in their subarban fortress. Do you know how many people THAT describes?

We need to send the Tamiflu to the people who will actually need it: The poor in Asia, the middle east, Africa, and Eastern Europe. They are the ones who can't take precautions, other than to stop existing. They will need the medicine.

I'm not saying don't take logical precautions, but don't panic as if armageddon was here.
