Lady, count the dead hospital workers. When is the last time any "flue" or "pneumonia" or "scam" killed multiple #'s of hospital workers in multiple locations throughout the world? I'm 7000 miles closer to REALITY and FACTS and STATISTICS...5, count 'em 5 OUT OF 6 hospital workers in a vietnam hospital ALL DIED after being exposed to the man who arrived in their ward and infected them...FACT. Just one example amongst hundreds....My friend here in Shanghai, his boss is in Hong Kong and did get this partcular bug and was laid up for over 3 weeks, most of the time on a respirator because of the pneumonia....and there are hundreds of people exactly like him in the same situation...this is NOT what happens every year, why do you find it so hard to believe that a new nasty bug is around?...regardless of where it came from? Mixing truths with half-truths and political spin is a miserable thing for any leader to do and that's what he does....two wrongs don't make a right EVER
