Don’t be an imbecile. This is not a media inspired con.

The Mexican swine flu is a weird variant of H1N1, enough of a mutation that previous vaccinations are not working against it.

Right now the CDC, the WHO, the Mexican government, the Canadian government, the British government, and the Mexican health care industry are freaking out about this. People are dropping like flies.

Tell you what. In one week one epidemiologist is predicting that 500,000 Mexicans are going to be sick. Is that enough to persuade you that this is not just media hype?

The thing is, people are “dropping like flies” to normal flu strands, too. And heart disease. And cancer. And highway travel. And slipping in the tub. It’s perfectly normal for people to be dropping like flies over something.

This is scaring people who are payed to be sacred. Fine for them. As for the media, they have absolutely no sense of proportion. Everything new scares the hell out of them. If deaths can be avoided by scientists running around like chickens with their heads cut off, fine. Reporting on it like it’s the black death, as the MSM has done over and over, being proved wrong time and time again, not fine.
