Yeah. That's what I like to hear from the recipients of my hard-earned tax dollars. That no-can-do spirit.

It would be a very costly to try quarantines, and vaccines cannot be made and distributed in time. Those who had the flu, have been in contact with many people. There is not a reasonable way to implement quarantines. They are merely speaking realistically.
That doesn’t mean that they aren’t doing anything. Communication with ER staff, and airport officials, and increased distribution and production of tamiflu are probably going to be very helpful. CDC is a government agency, but even so, they do a good job. They have spent a lot of time gearing up for the bird flu, and they have developed good protocols to handle a flu epidemic (if it comes to that) The swine flu isn’t what they were expecting, but they are very equipped to handle it.
