My Beef With The Swine Flu Fearers

I want to say something to you. IT IS THE FLU. It is like any other flu. it comes it passes. The only reason we make a big deal about it is the Media is making a big deal over a small outbreak in MEXICO. This may sound a little racist but these things happen in poor un-industrialized countries. the reason there is a problem there is that there are not proper medical facilities to handle this. So my message to you all is just treat it like any other flu. you bring back the plague then I will be a little concerned. This is a great quote from MSNBC It used to be that viruses were named for places.  The 1918 pandemic was called “Spanish Flu.“  Such names lead to discrimination.  But I think we can stop worrying about this outbreak of swine flu

The reason I bring this up is that I have had 3 letters from school talking about it

1) General information about the Swine Flu
2) A reported case in Wyandotte County
3) A sibling of a student in WHS might have it.
