No, this isn't a news thread. :|
I heard about and started snooping around, though. Then I found this (http://www.rte.ie/news/2009/0611/swineflu.html) article about it. :3
Meh. Doesn't seem like a big deal to me. It's just the flu.
Of course, the media will probably go blow this out of proportion. Right after it finally died, too. :\
It's becoming a larger problem, but still no big deal. Definitely not what people are hyping it up to be.
wash your hands, get some vitamin C and don't sneeze/cough on each other and you'll be fine.
Too bad most people are too stupid to realize this.

this, and how many people are killed be the seasonal flu?
Seasonal flu kills thousands.
Out of 25,000 cases, only 140 have resulted in death.
So that's about... 1/2% death rate?
And 100 have been in Mexico.
Its no big deal, I would actually rather have this replace seasonal flu, it seems more mild.
The more people it infects the higher the possibility of it mutating to something more dangerous, and if becomes more dangerous and the majority population is weak from the "weaker" version then we have a problem. And either way, I would rather not be sick.
Way to go Ireland...
I don't see the big deal. It's considerably weaker than the common flu.
Time to move to Madagascar.

Let's get there before they close their ports. :P
WHY!?!?!?!?
Is this really necessary? I need figures to know that this is really true.
The seasonal flu kills more people in a day than this has killed so far THIS YEAR.

I blame drugs. There we go, 2 birds with one stone! Why didn't we think of this earlier? Drugs and pigs cause swine flu obviously!
How do people get swine flu from pigs? Maybe it's the same way we get AIDS from people who have it......

The virus originated in pigs, people who have poopty living conditions that live on pig farms get it, hop the border to here, and it spreads.
Upper respiratory infections aren't spread through blood or semen JNFS.
But I know you want to have sex with pigs so be my guest.
That's actually nor what I meant.
