[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3342974, member: 29706"] Agreed, It could fit in anywhere but yes it's being blown out of proportions. Is it bad, sure. But as bad as the 1918 -1919 flu bad, NO. Predictions show it being somehwere around the Russian flu, Asian flu, Hong Kong flu levels. Maybe up to the 17th Century plague to Antonine plague levels. Considering the population of the earth is a lot higher now than it was then this is a blip on the map. And right now it's still less than the 2009 - 2010 flu levels. The media is no longer a source of information though. It's a source of what they want you to focus on and think. It used to be that things were stated as the facts as they were and move on. Now there are channels dedicated to "analyzing" whatever is going on. And it's done by people who are injection their own opinion and ran by people who are interested in ratings. Even the local channels are caught up in the BS which is why they are plastered with the headlines. And the bad thing is so many people have it ingrained in their minds that they need to pay attention to it all that they drive it to larger heights. Glance at the headlines and move on, the news is not life. Be aware of what is happening and then turn it off. If you watch any of the 24 hour news channels for more than ten minutes a day you are just feeding the trolls. [CENTER][ATTACH]157851[/ATTACH] [/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
