    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Swine Flu

How long until Madagascar closes it's airports and shipyards?

...damn you madagascar, I still haven't won that game. :(
 
I don't exactly have the best immune system in the world, with missing one of my antibodies or something to that effect, but I have medicine that helps my immune system fight crap and even then I wash my hands all the freaking time. Not to the point where I carry hand sanitizer around, but still. I'm not worrying that much.
 
Well, anywhere other than Mexico, if you are to get it, It's apparently like having a normal flu, except a bit more annoying. Which is why I feel sorry for the Mexicans. They lose loved ones while we complain that we're going to get sick days...
 
Yes, swine flu will surely kill us all, just like bird flu did.

@PichuK: Doesn't Madagascar only have a seaport in Pandemic?

And like everyone said, I'm waiting for bird flu to kill everyone first.
 
I think this hit New Zealand like it did Mexico, they're both quarantined or some shit. There's like a 5% mortality rate soooo...
 
Mmm, I really don't want to be infected, but it's not going to be that bad, I don't think :/

(Actually I'm one hell of a lot more scared of MRSA, which I learned about on Opera today :X)

While MRSA is common is hospitals, especially on both parts of the aging spectrum, I do think there's a kind of spray-foam disinfectant thing that kills it in...five seconds, if I read the label back at the hospital correctly.
 
Not too worried, though getting a little worried 'cause like more than 50 new cases are being found per day and I think there's some suspected cases in my state now. It's not so much the disease itself, but rather how fast it's spreading that scares me.

At times I wish I didn't live in a border state.
 
Alll of you are amazing , and my govener (iowa) wants us to rename it M1H1 virus(or flu w/e) cause its bad for pork bussiness >.>

well people died but.

that swine flu was different. i guess this one has strains of different things that makes it worse that the '76 outbreak.

it is 1 part of Human flu strain 1 part Bird Flu strain and 2 parts Pig flu strain


i may have gotten the bird and pig ones mixed around .....anyway, it's pretty crazy. noone is immune to it, and its four mixed flu strains.....POW RIGHT IN THE KISSER....pretty much

...You have a problem with this? Just a note: A large part of tCoD's population are, as you put it, "lol gay".

Now, to on-topicness...

Although it does worry me a bit, and I am being rather paranoid (More so that unusual) about it, I do doubt it'll be too bad... as has been said elsewhere on the forum, in the more developed countries it's much simpler to heal, and there'll probably be some sort of vaccine sooner or later.
