Sarcasm?

Yes.

I don't discount conspiracy theorists out of hand, but 90%?

Now the real fun begins.

I'll worry about it when I have to - when people I know/around me are affected.

Till then, business as usual. (yes locked up in my radio bunker, 8 miles beneath the surface of the earth)

I really wonder how many of these people wandering around with surgical masks follow up that strategy once they're in their office/home.

Thinking; taps, door handles, hands in mouth, nose, whatever orifice

KEEP YR FILTHY HANDS OFF OF MY WOMEN.

I have a pile of bones, and I'm not afraid to use them.

"Wimmins"

seriously, there'd be no work force to keep the rich rich, how could "they" possibley benefit from killing 90% of people?

at first i thought it was another one of those alerts that never seems to come to anything like sars or bird flu but this seems different somehow. its apparantly the same strain killed so many people back in 1918 but obviously things have changed since then. i am still not massively worried about it.

^^^ just to be clear, it's the same thing as bird flu (h1n1 swine variant).

it's ALWAYS around (especially in pigs), but it's the jump to humans that causes concern (for humans).

if you truly are worried, wash yr fucking hands and take 3x recommended daily dose of zinc (to inhibit viral replication). protip: take the zinc with food to minimize nausea.

...and always remember to have a sun-shiney day.

I hope this helps.

Well, if we're all dead, at least we won't have to go to work.....sayin'.

I dont want to leave my house now. There are people with this in my country.
ffs.

Oh my, that's quite a rig you've got there.... oh yes the 80 metres band is my favourite too...

I sneezed at Waterloo station today, and people looked at me with concern, then alarm, then they beat a polite retreat.

My girlfriend has been sick for weeks now, nothing very serious, but just general ill health, cough, etc, so today she finally went to see a doctor. First thing they asked her is if she'd been to Mexico lately.

backstory: she has not been to mexico

I GUESS WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY HERE IS THAT EVERYBODY IS FREAKING OUT OVER THIS AND ITS WEIRD

I'm not feeling well.

Have you been to Mexico lately?

Define lately.

Since this whole swine flu shit kicked off? Last month or so?

No, but I've been to Mexicans.
