Told buy a research scientist in this field when bird flu first broke a few years back, out all aiports in the uk had infra reds scanners looking at all arrivals at airports. Any one who showed up as having a high temperature was pulled into a side room to be checked out.

Looks like theyll be cranking them up again.

If this goes anything like the spanish flu and bearing in mind global travel travel now compared with 1919 this could be very severe.
Biggest pandemic since 1919.........just to cheer you up !

They try to bring up one of these epidemic scares once a year though dont they! I can't imagine them not being ready for it - if it was to happen...

Drug companies got another batch of expensive 'vaccines' to flog?

Over the years, the 'experts' have told us that one-half the world's population is going to be wiped out by; Aids/SARS/Legionaire's Disease/
mad cow diease/ swine 'flu/ bird 'flu etc etc. It's getting boring; when are people going to realize that this is all hype?

Tobacco has killed over a million in the UK in the past 10 years - but I don't hear any panic about that.

A million in ten years you say, compared to between 50 and 100 million in 1918.

But you are too dumb to realise that most of the deaths were from secondary bacterial infection - pneumonia, easily treated today with antibiotics.

Until, as predicted, antibiotics become ineffective.
