I think we cna all agree that most of this is just hype and will go away fairly soon.

One of the first symptoms is apparently reduced hand to eye coordination.  :hug:

That's only useful if you want to poke your eye out.  ;)

This could be bad. If this flu variant is spread by human-to-human aerosol, we might be in trouble. At least that's the attitude I'd adopt if I were the head of the CDC.

I recently read World War Z, good book to read right before this. Also, this reminds me, I played that pandemic game yesterday after watching the news of this.

This starting to sound scary.  I'm gonna start stockpiling food and Tamiflu.

11 more suspected cases in the US. Hmm

That's it, I'm heading to Madagascar before they close the seaport.

I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

We haven't had a pandemic in ages and they're normally relatively regular.

Just got back from a two hour meeting on this.

They activated one of the plans at work over an "abundance of caution". Or in real world speak, a VP watched MSNBC and shit his or her pants.

Are they forcing you to wear a mask?
