Bird Flu

What is it with bird flu? All the reports on TV and radio from so called 'experts' say that we should be worried. George Bush has been quoted as saying that the mortality rate for this 'disease' is probably 50%, which means that one person in two will die from it. Well anyone with an ounce of sense who is willing to look into these figures will realise this is just another heap of bullshit falling out of the presidents mouth. Ill explain why its a load of rubbish in a minute...but first, the trailers on TV are extoling 'Why we should be afraid of the Killer Flu'

'Killer Flu'??! Jeez, Michael Moore was so right in Bowling for Columbine when he said the media likes to keep the population scared. Total world population = 6 billion. Number of people who have (probably) died of Bird Flu (world wide) = 6, "Run for the hills Ma Barker!" We're all doomed!

Right, President Bush, reckons a 50% mortality rate. This is why hes the dumbest bloke on the face of the world. Everyone in Asia who has been diagonosed (definately) with Bird Flu, 1 in 2 have died. This does not account for those who have had milder forms of the disease who have not been diagnosed (ie those with antibodies) also, as a virus pandemic spreads, in evolutionary terms, it gets weaker. (sorry Right Wing religious types, but evolution does exist, and virus's prove it
get over it you chumps!) It gets weaker, because otherwise it would be virus suicide - no virus wants to kill off every host!

So proper experts reckon that a virus would kill, at most 1% (not even the 1918 virus killed 1%)

I cant believe the scaremongering tactics of the media. Do your own research, trust no one!
