President Obama’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology predict half the country will be infected by?
the mexican flu (I call it such based on origin and the fact that avian and human dna also make up this virus), and that 90 thousand will die.

"The report, which claims as many as 1.8 million people could end up in the hospital seeking treatment"
some private doctors do not appear to like the rush.
""Trying to rush in with an unknown, with an untested quantity of vaccine doesn’t appeal to me at all," said Dr. William Schaffner, a professor of preventive medicine at Vanderbilt University."
QUESTIONS:
What are your thoughts on the article in general?
Is it blown of of proportion and if so, why?
What are your thoughts on the massive amounts of untested vaccines?
Are you concerned over the issue?

I do not put much credence in ABC nor Obama’s Czars. The vaccine has not been tested enough and I do not plan on getting it. Many people who say they got it said it did not last as long as the regular flu. I really believe they are blowing this way out of proportion. Or Ezekiel Emanuel has had his dream come through and figures if we deplete the population then it would stop global warming or some weird thought purpose. This could also be a diversion from the health care bill they are trying to cram down our throats.
Who knows any more. When your own President lies all the time it is hard to take him or his buddies serious.
