Workers will remain in their posts while their families return home by September from Africa, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Russia, South America and Asia, excluding Singapore, said Panasonic spokesman Akira Kadota...."

Hmmm, just guarantees it spreads faster.
They know something the rest of us don’t ???
maybe Joe Biden knows
My thoughts exactly.
Ping.
Japan also working hard on new vaccine
Oh my.
No. They are just articulating in a roundabout way what we’ve suspected all along.
Just wondering out loud if “flu” is code word for terror attacks?
The Japanese do wierd things sometimes.
The Japanese do smart things sometimes.
I tend to agree. Let's just look at one thing: the world's economy is in a tailspin. Less money is being both earned by and given to 3rd and 4th world shiitehole nations. Guess where some of the first cuts in expenditures are made? Yeah, that's right, health care, especially prevention. Logical result: more spread of disease.
Yeah, the Japanese are being very smart.
They better, for the moment they seem to have a huge risk. But if its in Japan, its also already HERE.

Smart move-.
What do they know that we don’t. Or aren’t being told anyway. I have a feeling Obama could know Ebola was spreading like wildfire in New York City and would hide it, order the MSM to cover it up and they would do so gladly. While asking “Please sir, may I kiss your foot once more?”
Especially if you want to keep insurance cost down. I assume family members are covered under the same insurance as the employees. If they’re expecting a wave of flu, better than the employee get sick than the entire family.
If it hits the world next year, at least thanks to today’s porkulus bill and its new health directives, the US government will be monitoring who gets what care and pressuring providers to use triage and send the elderly and other weaker folks to the end of the treatment line
