OMG EVERYONE FREAK OUT NOW

SWINE FLU MOTHERFUCKERS!

It’s in CANADA. It’s in the US. It’s EVERYWHERE!

OMG OMG OMG

(c/o mal pingu)

Yes I realize this could be a big deal, but the way the media is taking this shit and running with it is completely ridiculous. It will undoubtedly turn into another racist wankfest like SARS was a few years ago. It’s the flu. It can be treated with antiviral meds and Canada supposedly has enough of those to go around. Unless you are in a high-risk group, chill the fuck out. Even if you are in a high-risk group, chill the fuck out. Wash your hands regularly and don’t make out with strangers. Or at least sick-looking strangers. Educate yourself. Be smart. And most importantly, don’t buy into this hysteria crap.

I’m sure there is waaay more important stuff going on in the world that the media is “ignoring” in order to cover this flu business.

    Well, Hallelujah! A voice of reason in the midst of this pile of hysterical pig shit.. Sign of the times. Nothing in the media is every ordinary anymore from the Storm Warnings in the weather report to the Pandemic Outbreaks. Even the regular no-name flu is now a deadly illness. So deadly we have to line up for shots against it every year OR ELSE. Geeze lou-eeze.

    Fab to see someone else who isn’t freaking out either! I received an email yesterday via a (US based) Yahoo group that I’m on that advocated stocking up on food & water which I think is totally over the top. The only deaths have been in Mexico, either they’ve got a stronger strain or are taking medicine later.

    YES!
    I love seeing sanity!
    This is being blown WAY out of proportion! Did you read that Malaysia and, uh, Borneo or some nowhere place has actually put CANADA on their do-not-travel lists!
    Funny – but effective – way to takes the public’s minds off the economic shitstorm, eh?
