Ready to form Voltron! Activate interlocks! Dyna-therms connected. Infra-cells up; mega-thrusters are go!

Goof balls!

1 person in London confirmed with Swine Flu. He's responding to the meds tho (according to the local news). Also confirmed are 1 in Devon, 1 in West Midlands, and the 2 in Scotland (North Lanarkshire).

I think we'll be fine. Seriously. Nothing that we should really be that concerned about as long as everyone takes their medicine and goes to a doctor.

Take your meds kids! That way you won't turn into a pig!

You realize that swine flu has been around for decades, only the cases didn't have that much of press coverage?

Yeah but it wasn't contagious from people to people and killing them.



This is a BIG deal. They just announced that ALL non-essential jobs (food markets/hospitals) will not go to work until May 6th. You don't shut down a country for something little or isn't major.

Well the previous cases only killed a couple people. Not this many. The first recorded case was in the 70's in the U.S. A soldier and several others died. Then in the 80's a woman in Michigan died of it after being in contact with a pig at the county fair!

Yes I've been researching the history of Swine Flu. W.H.O thinks it's certainly think's it warrents making it a level 5 (1 step away from a Pandemic).

I agree with that Matt Person Guy Super Cool Dude. There's not nearly enough dying going on, considering everyone's in danger.
