Swine Influenza

Hopefully it arrives as the school year is ending, making quarantine a bit easier. It would have been worse if it hit in the Fall.

Fall is when the second, killer wave can arrive.

How long can a single mask be used, for example?

Keep it on for one "session". Then it must be disposed of (by dropping in waste without touching the outside of the filter media). You can't reuse it as you would be in danger of infecting yourself by handling it.

Since yesterday they were saying that there were only 7 cases in the US and they were all mild with no serious infections and all 7 cases recovered quickly, I don’t think we have to be all that worried. Personally I think it is just one more “crisis” that the leftards are setting up to keep our minds off of how f***ed up Bozo and the boys are.

Time for damage control.

Odds of a virus naturally occurring capable of jumping from pigs, birds and humans AND going pandemic right at the same time as an American President visits the city in the heart of the outbreak AND someone critically infected with that flu shaking the hands of said President within 24 hours of him dropping dead? Coincidence, I think not! :)
