Nice job of Fear and Misinformation.

The facts are that this flu has a lower death rate than ordinary flue. The facts are also that this flu does appear to spread rapidly. The facts are that this flu often infects younger poeple because the last outbreak of H1N1 flu, called the "russian flu" occurred around 1977 and thus most older people have a degree of immunity already to it.

Being hysterical about a flu for heavens sake does no one any good.

Obama declared it a national emergency. This makes it easier, legally, to do certain things to help people faster. It does NOT mean that we;re all going to die from Swine flu.

Please stop getting hysterical about it. It's a flu. Achoo. It's a flu that spreads rapidly. 36,000 people die of the flu every year. That's sad but it happens.
