So I was talking to someone who seems to share the hype about it.


Apparently a swine flu outbreak happened somewhere in the past, and killed a ton of people. And apparently its uber contagious.

I think people are just trying to stop it from happening again. (Not sure on the exact date when it occurred, but apparently it was really bad.)

This isn't the same as that flu, at all. It's a mix of bird flu, human flu, and 2 types of swine flu.

And it isn't deadly. It's no worse then the regular flu, but it is much more contagious, which makes it more dangerous. No one on this site is at risk. We're teenagers, so our immune systems are perfectly fine. The Media is blowing this way out of proportion and it's retarded.

There is apparently one case in my state. Our school called yesterday warning us about it and telling us if you are sick to actually stay home.
This is kinda retarded. Like the bird flu. Everyone was like OMFGBBQ WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!
... Srsly. Stop making it worse than it is.

Because throwing money at problems make them go away, that's why. That's old school Washington politics for you! :)

Here is a picture of one billion of your tax dollars going to fund research for fighting the swine flu.

It seems like Obama is just throwing billions of dollars around.

A billion here, a billion there...

America is already in debt. :CStern:

Imagine all the Star Wars books and memorabilia you could buy with $1,000,000,000!

Btw, debt doesn't really matter because there is no way that the Chinese would get ticked off enough to do something about it. If they start a war with us they're going to get messed over, because they're massively invested in the United States.

I'm glad you can put a price on peoples lives. Not sure if I could do that or not.

A billion dollar is nothing for a country like the United States.

It's also a good investment to avoid a worst case scenario.

I really don't see why anyone would bitch over this. They are plenty other things the government should stop spending money on, that costs way more and are even more ueseless.

Why the hell are you moaning over research going onto fighting this thing? People just like a moan over anything.

Well the guy in Scotland who got this first in the UK is already feeling a lot better, the doctors have given him a clean bill off health but he has to sit it out for half a week.

Sounds like a killer virus to me.
