Here is a link to a cbs article about the flu

Swine Flu Baffles Health Experts

For anyone who hasn't read about this already here is a quote from the article.

"The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said tests show some of the Mexico victims died from the same new strain of swine flu that sickened eight people in Texas and California. It's a frightening new strain that combines genetic material from pigs, birds and humans. "

A combination of generic material from pigs, birds and humans. That is what stuck out in my mind. How does that occur in the wild?

Over 60 deaths have been reported in Mexico and over 900 sick yet our borders are still open. I'm more than a little concerned.

I'm wondering if this was an intentional release of an engineered flu?

I've wondered for several years if the West Nile virus was intentionally released in California because I doubt that the mosquitoes flu over from the mid east by themselves and now we have this new flu.

Perhaps this is day one for a epidemic for the history books.

I hadn't thought about that.

I'd kind of chalked that off to a retired researcher and the samples in a freezer that got emptied after he was gone.

That's a concern isn't it.

I wonder what those missing vials contained?

Why is it either American made or natural?

Seems to me that there was a report of a group in the mideast that bumped off a bunch of their own while experimenting with bio weapons.

I'll have to take a look for that.

That qualifies as one weird dream.

My recommendation is that no one should kiss any pigs.

We've got all our pigs wearing hospital masks so I think we're safe.

That was a lot easier then getting our chickens to wear those silly masks.
