the situation is that it can go from bird to people but the crap really hits the fan if it starts going from person to person. Thats where the 1/3 of population death toll comes in. So, right now, were basically hoping it doesn;t mutate.

I honestly think that it's nothing to worry about. Remember Mad Cow discease? More than half the people in the US probably eat a cheeseburger or something related to beef a few times a week, but guess what? That was nothing like they said it would be, and just because it's spreading in China doesn't mean we should be all that worried about it.

Pup is right on the money. This is going to go away. I doubt even one case of this disease will reach the West.

I'm a bit ignorant and did not know that. Hasn't been any real news about it lately but I'm sure we're going to hear lots of stuff.

You won't die of Avian flu. Chances are you'll die of something completely different.

I'm with SA with this one. There have been cases like this before and everyone nearly got killed by it. When it reached it, no one was killed. Surprising isn't it? The only reason these types of things happen because they aren't as clean as we are.
