I like the way you think.

I had the VERY same thought when I saw the headline on Drudge.

Why assasinate BHO? He’s bending over backwards (and bowing over forwards) to please them.

Because, and some here would do well to realize the difference, BO's just your standard issue crooked Chicago pol with unstandard gifts of charisma and incredible timing. They, the ones that would be thrilled to assassinate him are bat$&!* insane nuts that hate, hate, America and believe that anything done to strike at her is A Good Thing. (tm) They don't believe what Obama says, and more importantly, they don't care.  America is bad and must be destroyed. 

Not to say I think this flu thing is a bio attack, I don't, I just want to make the distinction that when it come down to Obama who is merely our idealogical opponent, and those POS's that wire suicide bombs, behead people on the internet, and rejoice when we lose 3,000 civilians in a day... those people would be thrilled to take out Obama, and on any given day I'm standing with our President against them no matter who he is.

People who were 20-30 years of age were disproportionately likely to die from the 1918 flu. My grandmother was 28. She caught it when it hit Washington in October. She was cared for at home, and nearly died, and no one else in the house caught it. She also got the second wave in the early Spring of 1919.

So, watch this flu—Is it killing young adults disproportionately?

Don’t forget: Woodrow Wilson kept shipping men over to France even though the generals told him the war was won and the Army doctors pleaded that the flu was killing the men like flies on the ships. Wilson wanted lots of troops in Europe so he could claim as much credit as possible for winning the war, and strenghthen his hand at Versailles. Fascist fiend.

In Mexico, most of the folks that have died are male, ages 23 - 44. Pandemic style.

There is a big risk with companies selling synthetic sequences such as http://mrgene.com/desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-77/166_read-160/ You can get 3000 base pairs for $ 0.49/bp, i.e. $ 1 470 for a 3000 bp sequence in 20 days. There are viruses that have economic impact that are shorter than that.

I hope that they are very strict with biosafety:
Mr. Gene's routinely screens every order for its origin, biosafety level classification or its potential for a dual-use application. During the ordering process, the customer may provide any insights on the biosafety of their constructs. Regardless of this classification Mr. Gene assesses biosafety and biosecurity issues individually for each ordered sequence. Mr. Gene therefore reserves the right to refuse orders, if necessary.

However, North Korea would easily be able to manufacture a nasty sequence.

Note: Influenza is a RNA virus that is much more difficult to handle and much longer.

From what I have read, including ProMed, the infected person is contagious for 3 days before symptoms appear to 7 days after they appear.

I also recall another anecdote about a man who died a day after his symptoms appeared. Don’t recall the details, but virulent flu can trigger other things, like a heart attack or the lungs can suddenly fill with fluid. It may depend on someone’s general health before being infected.

We all routinely ignore cold and flu symptoms because in the past, they have resolved without mortality.

For the record, I think this is simply a Black Swan and not necessarily an engineered virus. Spring in Mexico is a popular time for inexpensive vacations. This could have started almost anywhere, given air flight, and just happened to be noticed first in Mexico. As for anyone first protecting themselves, just from observation, flu vaccines can commonly trigger the disease itself &/or not necessarily protect someone. My guess is this is because of the mutation rate.

If you read the update, Solis went into the hospital the day after he met with Obama and died about a week later.

Typical MSM. They all reported that the man was dead 24 hours after shaking Soetoro’s hand.
