We have to talk about how we're going to die horribly.
They say swine flu will decrease and almost vanish over the Summer, but then come back in Winter.

First off, Flu in any form is a virus, not a bacterium. That's why antibiotics wouldn't work.
Second, just to clarify, a pandemic is a populace that has been infected by a communicable illness.
Amd finally, breaking news: swine flu isn't going to kill us all. It has killed less than 200 people worldwide. And the "gone in summer, back in winter" thing is what influenza does. It's called swine flu cause it infected and killed a pig. OOOOH, SHOCKER. A VIRUS KILLS A NON-HUMAN, IT MUST BE A SUPERBUG ASAASDSGEGakISGgUiI7RJsO...
There are worse things than swine flu going around. This was the media blowing stuff WAY out of proportion as per usual.

Db, as much as I would like to go off into a rant about how I wasn't complaining, only asking him not to spam, and how you are always antagonizing people, I can't because this isn't the right place and I don't want to spam either.
And, so I'm on topic I'll say something about swine flu.
I think they are blowing this whole thing way out of proportion.

VIROS, there is a thread about Backseatmodding and how you should LET mods do their jobs, and I do agree the nubz was spamming... but I don't mind you and I think you should be a mod, so you can actually do something about it... and I also deleted her post... saince it was spam... Just try not to do it again VIROS... and Dbsndust, give him a break, It is a mods choice weather it is appropriate or not...

So we pretty much all agree that the swine flu is far overblown, with a few exceptions.

Yup. Of course, since my house is in the center of a Mexican swine farm... no wonder there are so many cases around here!
Okay, fine, I'm in Southern California. There are still a LOT of cases, though, in this county and in surrounding counties. My school should be down any day now...

May I be correct, H1N1 finally killed an American today...

@viros, I was just joking around... lmao
So I believe we have all met a consensus that this is overblown? Even a single strain of common flu would've killed at least 10 Americans by now.
