Inky Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 the media is working everyone up. here is a fact.like 100 people WORLD WIDE have died from swine flu.over 300,000 people IN THE USA die of regular old flu every year.you should be more scared of the regular flu, or getting struck by lightning, or hit by a bus. you have a better chance of hitting the Lotto then dieing from swine flu.

ken_cinder Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I said it elsewhere..... When ten thousand people have died from it, and it's confirmed, get back to me. WHat have we got so far? A whole bunch of cases that most have been confirmed as NOT being Swine Flu, with a drop in the bucket for confirmed cases.Outside of Mexico, where squalor is to be blamed for deaths and Swine Flu being indirectly related to them, 1(?) death? It's IMPOSSIBLE for a pandemic to happen, as this virus can't kill 99% of people it infects without the help of other factors. Poor living conditions where other things can attack your compromised immune system are where it's going to kill most. Media fear-mongering, and nothing more.

Hera Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Hand sanitizer is complete rubbish. I'm surprised that people have actually overlooked the common and effective washing of the hands with hot water and soap. I haven't but it is convenient having it around when you aren't near proper facilities. Especially when having children. I see nothing wrong with it.

ken_cinder Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 That picture actually originated from a guy on the webmagic forums (Where KLOV was, is now separate for the Lymphoma forums). That's his kid, and his wife died from Lymphoma.......just a little tidbit I know. Not that I really find it offensive or anything, just find it odd to see it anywhere else.

ken_cinder Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Is this still in the news? You can't be serious, of course.......Fear Mongering is the media's primary goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I thought they might have moved onto something else. Swine flu is so last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
