This could become a problem.
The 1918 flu was first observed in Kansas.
Where in Kansas?
Military installations (Riley and Leavenworth)?
Meat-packing plants in Dodge City?
Thank your local ‘quickie mart’ illegals for this one.
Stocking up on a few extras to have on hand. Thanks for the heads up.
Aw crap. I read that headline on a twitter link on a goldbug site where they still have heated debates about whether the moon landing was faked, and decided it was too crazy to believe.
I’m starting to think about that animation sequence from “Congo” (?) where Dustin Hoffman shows that map of the United States, where red dots get bigger and bigger so quickly that they cover the entire country in like a week.
It is odd (to me) that this flu is a combination of three flu types. Wondering if this could be some kind of laboratory- created flu?

Has Randall Flagg been through Kansas recently?
The first case was seen in Mexico on April 13. The outbreak coincided with the President Barack Obama’s trip to Mexico City on April 16. Obama was received at Mexico’s anthropology museum in Mexico City by Felipe Solis, a distinguished archeologist who died the following day from symptoms similar to flu, Reforma newspaper reported. The newspaper didn’t confirm if Solis had swine flu or not.
I am a physician. I am prescribing Tamiflu 75 mg 10 pills just to have in the house for my kids (aged 16 to 35). If this gets worse, there will be a run on Tamiflu...speak to your docs.
With illegal immigrants come their infections. Swine flu, drug resistant TB and a host of other communicable diseases are all heading our way and the problem is only going to get worse.
In the third and fourth centuries AD illegal immigrants, then know as “barbarian tribes”, swept across the Roman empire. By the end of the fourth century many villages and some cities had been depopulated by plague, smallpox and a host of other diseases history can’t identify that were brought in by the invaders. In most cases the barbarians had been exposed to the diseases for generations but the Roman populace no resistance. One reason the empire fell was because so many people were so sick or disabled by disease that they were unable to defend themselves.
A responsible government would seal our borders
Anyone know what part of Mexico the person visited?
Have they announced when the funeral services will be held?
