Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0 Re: Egypt orders slaugter of 300,000 [not guinea] pigs | | Saying that the swine flu fears have gotten out of hand is an understatement. I read in an article yesterday (on CNN I think) that 36,000 people die each year from the common seasonal flu...in the US alone! Worlwide it's over 350,000!! Hmmmm.....I haven't seen any numbers even close to that with the swine flu. I think it's another case of the media needs something to report on, so they picked this. |
