    you raise some good points. I would suggest though that we do have a defense against it, same as any virus. That being a normally functional immune system. People ravage and abuse their immune systems by years of smoking,   drinking,  drug use,  junk food,  lack of exercise, etc, and then when defense systems are compromised, a sneaky virus like this one comes in and knocks them for a loop. Then they cry there was nothing they could have done about it and just hope the govt comes up with a magical vaccine again, so once recovered, they can go back to yaba, coke, ice, extasy, whatever recreational drug suits their fancy, continue to suck noxious fumes into their lungs, basically the same unhealthy life style, then wonder why bad things happen to their health.  

    Yup, if 50 mil out of 9 bill die it is just mother nature's way of cleansing the planet a little. If the human race is allowed to continue to grow at present rates, unchecked, it is just a matter of time before the entire planet is doomed anyway. A few diseases like this flu, is just a way of culling the herd, so to speak.

      Just went through the Shanghai airport "quarantine" area last night. They set up a thermal camera that takes a reading of everybody that passes. Other then a quick questionnaire form to fill out - there is not much in their approach.

      BTW - just about to board Thai air from Shanghai to BKK. Should arrive at around 21:15 Anyone going to be at Guess bar tonight?

      It would be nice to put some faces to all the names here.

        (Road Runner @ Jul. 26 2009,02:00) I can't help but think that the press must be lacking a decent disaster story to print at the moment.
        I read that sunspot activity is way down and we are heading into a new ice age.

          Thai A(H1N1) resistant to Tamiflu €“ Malaysians told to stop wanking
          By John Le Fevre

          (THAIVISA.COM): -- Thai authorities are urging calm after the first case of pandemic A(H1N1) found resistant to the front-line antiviral drug Tamiflu was found in a patient at Ramathibodi Hospital.

          The discovery was made in a batch of 50 confirmed pandemic A(H1N1) samples being tested by the hospital laboratory.

          The two cases will be discussed at a meeting of virologists and health authorities tomorrow, which will also review the national strategy for combatting the spread of the virus and the planned stockpiling of oseltamivir, the generic version of Tamiflu.

          The meeting will also discuss treatment guidelines and whether Thailand should stockpile the alternative antiviral drug zanamivir.

          Prof Dr Wasun Chantratita, chief of virology and molecular microbiology at Ramathibodi Hospital, said the Tamiflu resistant strain was found in a Thai who had since recovered from pandemic A(H1N1).

          Health experts have previously cautioned that overuse, incorrect prescribing, or self medicating with oseltamivir may lead to drug resistance.

          Dr. Wasun said 10,000 out of 15,000 samples sent for testing were positive for the pandemic A(H1N1) virus, leading us to assume that the majority of people with flu-like symptoms will have pandemic A(H1N1).

          Meanwhile a doctor in Malaysia has said that avoiding masturbation and homosexual activities are among preventive measures people can take to reduce their chances of contracting the virus.

          Dr. V. M. Palaniappan, an eminent practitioner of complimentary therapy, said that such activities caused the body to develop friction heat which in turn, produced acid and made the body hyperacidised.

          Dr. Palaniappan told Bernama, the Malaysian national news agency, that masturbation and homosexual activity made €œthe body become an easy target for pandemic A(H1N1) infection,€ however, the normal sexual union between members of the opposite sex was absolutely safe.

          Dr Palaniappan, a former associate professor of ecology at Universiti Malaya, said his 33 years of research had shown that high acidity in the body resulted in loss of immunity, thus making people more susceptible to viral diseases such as pandemic A(H1N1).

          The doctor said to prevent acidity, it was essential to consume alkaline food and drinks that could neutralise excess acid in the body.

          He recommended people drink coconut water, which is alkaline, and therefore could be used as a herbal medicine for the prevention of pandemic A(H1N1), along with orange, lemon and pomelo which, despite containing citric acid, were very rich in potassium and therefore, would not disturb the body's immunity.

            Of course a professor of ecology would understand the human immune system and spread of infectious diseases!

              I'm feeling a bit hyperacidic today!
