So it's over. No pandemic... for now. Panic sex cancelled.

Cancelled?! You mean I got all gussied up in my good bathrobe for nothing?

When the WHO or the CDC starts referring to it as "Captain Trips" then we'll know we're in real trouble.

Taking lots of Vittie C here, wearing personal air purifier and staying indoors. Keeping the bathrobe on. Never know...might get lucky.

I think it is strange that none of the US cases are being reported as hospitalized.
I believe , from what I have read only one case required a brief hospital stay, however I would be comforted by some of these kids from New York classmates letting us know how their friends are doing.

Suddenly living in Southern California doesn't seem so nice

Those poor people...
Keep updating, I'm still looking for updates as well.

I find it very interesting that the major news stations view this as a non hot topic. No breaking news telling people to stay home, when to the sources in this site it appears to already be at allot of points in the US. So whats the deal? Keep everyone unaware till its to late? or to concerned about the economic impact of a false flag.

A few updates:

Mexico: Soldiers and Health Workers Guarding Airports and Bus Stations, Corralling Those Potentially Ill with Swine Influenza

New York: Two Manhattan families contact officials after developing influenza-like symptoms following travel to Mexico.

New York: Daycare under investigation for possible swine influenza cases after children fell ill.

Mexico: Officials extend school closures in Mexico City, Mexico State, and San Luis Potosí until 6 May.

The worst that could happen is a major panic move by the Mexico population. Mexico was already near collapse... this make it even worse.

Don't know if it's related to this, but my bro just called me from Boston (MA), he said they have all the trains near Boston University shut down and there are fire trucks and police all over the place near Boston University.

Weirdness, I'm not totally sure if it's related, but I thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone knows anything about it.

Ugh... I have to give my response on this.

First of all, all the people saying "Millions are going to die!! All your family and loved ones will die slow, painful deaths at the hands of this disease!!!11!!1!!!"

They need to calm down and stop spreading fear.

Heres some things I would like to know about these 68 Mexican deaths:

1. Where these people lower class or poor?
2. Did they have any kind of healthcare?
3. Did they go to a doctor or just assume they had a cold or regular flu?
4. If they went to a doctor, were they misdiagnosed?
5. Where did these outbreaks and deaths occur? Poor/rural areas?

These factors have a HUGE weight on the statistics. Perhaps these people were in poor health to begin with. Mexico isn't a rich country. Their food and water sucks. Some rural areas are practically 3rd world.

8 people are 100% confirmed to have had this in the U.S. All 8 have already recovered.

I think the next few days will be the big decider. If all of a sudden thousands of Americans get sick, then we know it is spreading aggressively.

From what I have read, if you go to the doctor as soon as you get the symptoms and take some Tamiflu, you should be fine. Thats pretty much all they did for the 8 Americans.

Besides, 68 out of 1,000 people dying is 7%. Thats 7% percent in a country with horrible food/water/medicine and healthcare. Many of those may have not even gone to a doctor.

I'm not too worried. The only place I have to go here in PA is to my college classes for a few hours each day, and really no where else. Plus my classes end in 2 weeks.

I think we will be fine. Atleast based on current data. Try not to panic too much. Stress weakens the immune system and makes you more liable to get sick.

I'm not too worried. Although I did get stuck standing next to a Mexican family at Kmart today.

Oh well, they looked pretty healthy.

I love how everyone is saying that this virus has to be man made, because nothing that complex could have been made by nature....

Is everyone forgetting things like: Humans, Pigs, Birds, Cats, Dogs, Fish, Fruits, Vegetables, AIDS, Herpes, Snails, Starfish?

These are all things that were created by nature... and to my knowledge, most of these made up of much more complex systems and needed no help from man or any other outside source. Never under-estimate what nature is capable of and keep calm.

Just take the normal cautions you would during the regular cold season. Take vitamins, exercise, wash your hands, eat healthy. There is no sense in getting panicky.

I live in anaheim, california, right by a fire station and I haven't heard the sirens at all today. My fiancee's step-father is also a police officer, so im sure if something big's going down we'll hear about it. If we hear that SHTF then I'll let everyone know before I head out, lol.

I don't know if anyone else is aware of this, but there is actually a contingency plan within Northern Command, CONPLAN 2591 NORTHCOM, which is designed to handle pandemic influenza.

I think a discussion has to be held here on how likely the possibility is that CONPLAN 2591 will be enacted. My guess it would have to be a major outbreak here in the United States for such a plan to be activated. Difficulty in discussing this is due to the fact there is no information availiable on the Internet that discusses what the plan entails.

Listening to Alex Jones' Special Swine Flu Broadcast tonight...

Caller from Mexico- 8 hours from Mexico City says that News Cast has said that they have a Vaccine for this flu. On Mexican Aztec TV, the President of Mexico is claiming that they have a vaccine ready for this flu to assure the people that "everything is fine".

They are quarantining the cities- although are denying it from American Public. Deaths are being reported by every state between Mexico City and the American Border.

Alex says- that is impossible unless this Flu was created by the Government- and Staged.

WOW.
just wow

Aw crap, who went and cracked the first seal?
