If it's real, I doubt if we can come up with, and market a cure in time.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

Hasn't the swine flu occurred before? Like in 1976 and haven't we blamed people south of the USA border for it's spread before? Or was it East Asians at that time? *sigh*

Personally, I'm more worried about a pandemic of hysterical fear than much of anything else.

What I pointed out is simple mechanics of biology and virolence.

South America contains more confined, urban populations. That still have large access to international travel and shipping.

Flu viruses often winter in the Southern Hemisphere and than return to the Northern Hemisphere as a much stronger strain.

Sorry but I can't change the fact that seasons are reversed based on latitude.

Nor can I go back in time and change the course of history.

Maybe options trading would be a better bet with this one.

QuoteNews services, Fox Radio, are reporting first confirmed death in Texas.

They will not say the true cause of death other than that teacher had other health problems. Could it of been AIDS?

Possibly,  the HIV/AIDS population is going to affected by this virus more than those with uncomprimised immune systems.

QuoteThe woman had been hospitalized with complications from the flu since April 14, and died earlier this week, said Doug McBride, a spokesman for the state health department. He said that other members of her family had undergone testing and none were known to have contracted the flu.
