Its very serious issue. It was very good reaction, I think, and response for such event. It could be much worse, if for example this virus was more effective. You simply dont understand do you?

Try to learn more about viruses and how they work. I am sure you will understand power of such destructive force. It has such potential do you agree with me?

Virus can change by mutation. Statistics is not a key to what can rly happen. Virus spread and ignorance go together and could be result of current influenza spread and pharmacy monopoly we see today.

of course there is a huge risk of a virus pandemia, but it is present at all times. the thing with the "swine flu hoax" is that pharmaceutical companies blew up the media with saying that this virus in particular will bring the apocalypse. fact is that till the very end none of those companies ensured a warranty that the vaccine will work and hoped for a panic outbreak to sell them. fact is also that due to mutations the vaccine will in fact only work with one single type and even the slighliest change will cause the new virus immune.
the thing is that there is not really a way of stoping a pandemia once it gets rolling. but instead of trying to earn money on peoples fear companies should rather conentrate on educating people how to avoid spreading it.
i for myself am once happy about the polish government which didn't buy any vaccines at all stating that they wont until any company will ensure that these are safe.

the global worst-case scenarios of swine flu were bad, but nowhere near the catastrophe that's happening in africa right now. in that way statistics do matter. for instance i remember reading that the UK had predicted a worst-case scenario of around 60,000 deaths from swine flu. i'll see if i can find the article.
i'm just trying to put things into perspective. the media hysteria surrounding swine flu was completely out of proportion compared to what was predicted as the worst outcome.

lets face it teh world is massively over populated, a few good out breaks is needed to kill off loads of the sick, and weak specimens amongst us. look at most of the swine flu deaths, they were old folk or people with 'underlying health issues'. the more of these that get made deid the better, and africa too in fact every continent going should have its population reduced. plus all the dead people wont be breathing any more, thus CO2 and H2O emmissions reduced and global warming solved. badda bum badda bing. genocide for a better planet.

Frankly I'm disappointed. I expected the useless eaters to be trimmed back to under half a billion by now.

Afaik, all people that died of it were really old people or people that were already sick. Swine flu isn't that serious either, it just takes longer than a normal flu, some have stomach aches as a side effect, some cough up stuff (like i did), it's not nice but in the end, it's just a slightly above regular flu.

No, but I'm already familiar with the ideas of Lyndon LaRouche, Alex Jones, Henry Makow, Webster Tarpley, Davide Icke and other mentals.

Here's the thing: If H1N1 had run amok and killed scores of millions, then the mentals who said it was a bioweapon to depopulate the earth woudl say they were right and would blame the WHO for being an Illuminati tool to depopulate the earth, and not vaccinating enough, or giving out the wrong vaccine, or the vaccine was secretly the disease itself.
You can't win an argument with mental peasants. They is too stoopid, viz.

yeah like pigs can fly. what a stupid name......they should have called it
something more deadly like napalmis . every one would be soo scared.
i went to my doctor.. he asked me about vacines and i said " id rather catch the flu." he seemed disapointed he couldnt administer a needle.
so he put a wooden ice cream stick thing in my mouth,,,,i didnt see him take it out a wrappper or a jar of disifectant.
i recon he tried to give me the flu to teach me to want vacines
he just picked it off the table .....err.. i felt ill for days after that ,
