            there is no vaccine right now and our immune systems can't fight it off.

              My advice is to charge those credit cards to the max while you still have time to enjoy it.

                I believe it. I've been fighting the flu for a month now. I've been functional, but barely. Everyone at work has been feeling real bad as well, with body pains and the whole works. This happens every 60 years (timed with the cycle of the Sun...interesting)

                              There are a bunch of sail boats in the marina a few blocks from me... If that shit hit's the fan.. I'm picking my favorite boat from the lot and will find a few hotties for the ride. Then I'll be heading to some Islands I know of in the middle of no where.

                              I'll then do my best to repopulate the planet with the hotties I take a long.

                                      1968 with the Hong Kong Flu outbreak. In 1957, the Asian flu pandemic resulted in about 70,000 deaths. The most deadly influenza pandemic outbreak was the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, which caused illness in roughly 20 to 40 percent of the world's population and more than 50 million deaths worldwide. Between September 1918 and April 1919, approximately 675,000 deaths from the Spanish flu occurred in the United States alone.

                                          all we can really do, at this point is get as healthy as you can...vitamins, fruits and veggies. Wash your hands all the time and carry antibacterial gel.

                                          I was at the grocery store the other day, and they have a little wipes despensor by the shopping carts, the only people I seen use it was the elderly.

                                          I use to work for Dillards for years and I can't believe how many females, didn't wash their hands! Then they went on to touch the damn door handle, grrrr!

                                          Use your paper towels that you used to dry your hands off with, to open that nasty ass handle!

                                            So I think it's a good idea.

                                              I wonder how much we could have gotten done with regards to disease control/prevention if we put the Iraq war budget towards it.

                                                      If something like this hits, being prepared is vital for the survival of humans. That being said, how many Bush supporters are confident that the current White House could implement safety measures?

                                                                It is not a matter of if, it is a matter of when. They have feared the repeat of the 1918 pandemic for years. When a similar virus happens it will spread so quickly due to modern transportation that the effects will be catastophic.

                                                                The world economy will slow, millions will die, if it is like the 1918 strain age and health will not be an issue, that virus was indiscriminate. It will be a question of vaccine creation, never easy because of the lead time required, luck and genetics who lives and who dies.

                                                                In the grand scheme of things getting rid of a few hundred million humans will help the earth regenerate! Housing prices will drop too!

When a similar virus happens it will spread so quickly due to modern transportation that the effects will be catastophic.

                                                                                    The world economy will slow, millions will die, if it is like the 1918 strain age and health will not be an issue, that virus was indiscriminate. It will be a question of vaccine creation, never easy because of the lead time required, luck and genetics who lives and who dies.

                                                                                    In the grand scheme of things getting rid of a few hundred million humans will help the earth regenerate! Housing prices will drop too!

                                                                                          The H5N1 bird flu began spreading across Asia in 2003 and it has now reached Indonesia (where it has already caused human deaths) and Russia. Although no-one can be sure if it will develop into a global pandemic, a couple of weeks ago I read that some Japanese scientists believe the spread is close to a critical mass that will make its further spread inevitable.

Apparently injectible forms of Relenza are still effective, but it was reported on the BBC earlier this week that one of the problems is that until the exact strain which passes to a large number of humans is identified, the effectiveness of vaccines cannot be known. Another is that by the time useful vaccines are available in large numbers, the virus is likely to have mutated.
