Please, stop the haters. Let people be people. Judge based on talent, not looks or background. Learn about other types of people–and I mean REALLY learn, not ask the nearest random person on the street. Forever and ever, amen (sry, couldn’t resist)

Also there =/= there’re. Stay in school 12 year old.

Stupid, through and through.

also, your second point is a total lie. the swine flu acts in the same way the regular flu, otherwise it would probably not be a flu.

“In Mexico, where the swine flu originated, the World Health Organization has definitively linked the virus to seven deaths. But there are also reports that more than 150 Mexicans have died from flu-like respiratory infections.

Although the data on deaths are accurate, no one knows how many Mexicans have been infected with swine flu. Initial news reports of more than 2,400 people infected is probably a huge under-estimate, experts say.

Thus, it would be a big mistake to divide 150 deaths by 2,400 infections and arrive at a mortality rate of 6 per cent.”

“Two deaths have been reported in the United States, resulting in a preliminary case-fatality rate of 0.2% among patients with laboratory-confirmed disease.”
http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5817a1.htm
“Therefore, the actual fatality rate is likely far lower since the denominator (the number of people who have the disease) if probably much higher (not everyone is tested or identified). This is as compared to the typical case fatality of 1% in seasonal flu. Remember that in the US, the current case fatality rate is 0.92%.”

don’t trust the media, bud.

::throws TV off the roof::

::then shoots it with a .45::

This is not information that they’re trying to hide …

Plus it ignores same information about Swine Flu. 1. It can kill otherwise healthy people. 2. The estimated mortality rate is 6% but given most where in a country with poor medical care and its far to early to tell the actual mortality rate so this could be way off so I’ll say .5% to 2%. 3. Unlike the regular flu, our immune system have never encounter the H1N1 virus thus we are far more vulnerable to it than the regular flu. Given these 3, hypothetically: if 10% of the global population catches the Swine Flu, at an estimated world population of 6,791,000,000, the total death to would be between 3,395,500 and 13,582,000.

If you don’t like a graph you don’t have to look at it.

“The media” uses mismatched numbers to make things seem worse than they really are, because fear causes news ratings to go up. They only do it because we’re to dumb to double check though, and they’ve stopped checking each other.

The Drive By Media!

But do you really think it will be a big deal for anyone in a developed country?
Sure, it might wipe out millions of people in 3rd world country’s, but we may be due for a natural disaster to reduce our over-population.
