killer flu

There are ominous similarities between our mexican swine flu and the 1918 flu pandemic that killed approx 100 million. This has all the hallmarks of a disaster. Although may express "don't panic" and try to ridicule others who are alarmed by the rapid spread of the epidemic, few understand how deadly a disease flu can get.

In 1919 entire towns were wiped out. The global population was in total panic. This flu killed more people than WWI. Try to keep that in perspective.
