I agree, it sounds engineered. We need our genetics folks to clear this one up. Have u seen the obama deception on you tube. Speaking of engineered. Warning.. it is a full length documentary.

>>Young people dying. And dna of virus is perplexing,,both avian and swine dna. CDC is alarmed,,
Please provide a link... We’d love to read more about this. Having both swine and avian DNA would seem to indicate the virus was engineered in a laboratory.
The CDC wants us to believe it’s too late for containment. That means they didn’t see this coming. Not very good at their jobs, are they?
From WHO:

The majority of these cases have occurred in otherwise healthy young adults. Influenza normally affects the very young and the very old, but these age groups have not been heavily affected in Mexico.
Because there are human cases associated with an animal influenza virus, and because of the geographical spread of multiple community outbreaks, plus the somewhat unusual age groups affected, these events are of high concern.
The Swine Influenza A/H1N1 viruses characterized in this outbreak have not been previously detected in pigs or humans. The viruses so far characterized have been sensitive to oseltamivir, but resistant to both amantadine and rimantadine
Bubonic plague has a harder time spreading (you need fleas and rats to spread it.) However if Bubonic Plague transmutes into Pneumonic Plague then its katie-bar-the-door!
I’m so not looking forward to traveling home through Houston/Bush International tomorrow. Guess it’s time to load up on the Airborne and vitamin cocktail.
This really is O’s fault. IMO

UPDATE 1-Venture capital firm set to reap rewards on swine flu
Fri Apr 24, 2009 6:35pm EDT
LOS ANGELES, April 24 (Reuters) - The swine flu outbreak is likely to benefit one of the most prolific and successful venture capital firms in the United States: Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Thomson Reuters Private Equity Week reported on Friday.
Shares of the two public companies in the firm’s portfolio of eight Pandemic and Bio Defense companies — BioCryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX.O) and Novavax (NVAX.O) — jumped Friday on news that the swine flu killed a reported 60 people in Mexico and has infected people in the United States.
The World Health Organization (WHO) said the virus appears to be susceptible to Roche’s (ROG.VX) flu drug Tamiflu, also known as oseltamivir, but not to older flu drugs such as amantadine.
Roche said it has five million treatment courses of Tamiflu on stand-by for the WHO in its “Rapid Response Stockpile.”
“Roche was contacted by the WHO and is prepared to immediately deploy the stockpile if requested. However, this request has not been made at this time,” Roche spokesman Terry Hurley said....snip

I can remember the flu outbreak in the UK (socialized medicine) a few years back. Many, many died.
During this time....my husband’s uncle died (from another cause)...and had to have his cause of death ‘approved by the coroner’. Do you know HOW LONG it took to lay this man to rest because of the bureaucracy? 8 weeks. I kid you not.
