Sometimes we learn it first on DU ..... sometimes not

[Stinky The Clown]

I'm thinking the flu is not something I'm going to sort out on DU.

2. Try

this site. It is run by a good liberal MD and you will not find a site with better up to date news. Many medical professionals post as well as lay people.

3. If you are uncomfortable call your doc.

4. There's no known pill to counter "dumb"

And a lot of the flu talk seems to be of that strain.

5. And it's contagious.

Can you believe this crap?

6. Three strains actually, dumb, dumber and bullshit

The panic mongers will tell you it's the end of the world. The CDC will tell you of the 11/18 cases in the US, all are mild, all are recovered or recovering, and they don't understand why? MAYBE because we have built up immunities from flu shots over the years? We have more calcium or selenium in our diets? Or maybe because they are making a mountain out of a mole hill (pig hill?).


I think more data is needed and the panic needs to be tamped down by the people who are crying wolf and peak oil and terra terra terra.

Oh, and the torture debate got conveniently shoved off the news cycle. And how many Bush era people are still at work (embedded ) in the CDC?

7. Speaking of dumb

we do NOT build immunity from year to year to the flu since each year we get a UNIQUE strain

So far CDC reports 20 Confirmed cases, try to keep up

And they also said that they expect deaths sooner or later as of Sunday Morning PRESSER where they made it very official

Oy and you CONFUSE, willfully so, information with fear mongering

Or following the spread with fear mongering

Oh and all this is pharma's fault... we get it

Oh and I am sure you will alert this as a personal attack

:-)

Go ahead... the amount of disinfo in your posts is in the very contagious strain of stupid... and science illiteracy
