BIRD flu, SWINE Flu...they should just call it the ZOO flu

David went to a conference a couple years ago where they discussed their potential response to a pandemic LIKE the Avian flu. Basically, their idea was they were going to have a drive BY emergency room where you never leave your car. IF you have the extreme conditions, you will be admitted to emergency room and any relative would be given a vibrating, light up pager and told to wait parked some where. It is at that point I turned to David and announce that "WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!"

SOOOOOO, I have read up a lot on the BIRD flu and have a understanding of its implications. It is still out there, in Egypt now. A similar threat has emerged.... the SWINE flu. The strain in Mexico is weird and they are trying to get it under control. The strain in the US is NOT the same but that doesn't mean it can't mutate. David had already gotten "FEDERAL PROCEDURES" regarding the Swine flu in the ER.

I am not saying the sky is falling YET... but I am going to buying extra "dry" foods for the pantry in the next few months.
