Drudge: Obama Greeted in Mexico by Man who died days later of flu symptoms
Drudge Report ^ | 04.25.2009 | Drudge

Posted on 04/25/2009 2:52:45 PM PDT by Cicero

The money paragraph to which Drudge links (Bloomberg):

"The first case was seen in Mexico on April 13. The outbreak coincided with the President Barack Obama’s trip to Mexico City on April 16. Obama was received at Mexico’s anthropology museum in Mexico City by Felipe Solis, a distinguished archeologist who died the following day from symptoms similar to flu, Reforma newspaper reported. The newspaper didn’t confirm if Solis had swine flu or not."

Drudge has been playing Obama for circulation as much as Time Magazine—but in a rather different spirit. He’s not a Worshipper.

On another thread, a Mexican doctor told BBC that two of his intern colleagues in the hospital where he works have died.

No, this is not just hitting impoverished people already in bad health. If anything, Mexicans probably have stronger immune systems than we do.

We don’t know that he was asymptomatic. He could have been sick but unwilling to pass up his chance to meet Obama.

No, obama won’t die. Remember he has the best health insurance in the world. I bet it won’t even shut him up for a day if he gets the flu named after him.

“Your ironic comment may be closer to the truth than you think. The CDC is thinking this is something genetically engineered from all the weird components.”

I agree. Possibility is there.

falls terminally ill.

It don't take the Swine Flu to tell me Obama is sick and should be quarantined. If not quarantined, I'd settle for his writing hand being duct-taped over his mouth.

how appropriate that swine flu should be what does it when the pork train ran through congress in the past 100 days.

I am sorry to say that if the big zero got it, i wouldn’t shed a tear after what he has done to all of us.

“The guy could have already been very sick when he met with Obama.”

The guy died the next day, so one would think so. Obama had to have at least shook hands with the guy.
And one would think if he spoke with him for more than a few seconds, then Obama would have been exposed to the virus if the man was that sick and died the next day.

From the Drudge linked article:

“Felipe Solis, a distinguished archeologist who died the following day from symptoms similar to flu,”

If he comes around here soon, I will call all media (for what it’s worth) and demand everyone be quarantined for 2 months. What do you bet that the 0ne doesn’t leave DC for a long, long time? Maybe to Camp David, but no where else?

I read that BBC report. Very scary! I think Mexico is doing everything it can (the two interns who died had actually been vaccinated) and is trying not to set off a panic, but it’s going to be hard to prevent panic now. I read another report that said that someone turned up in Canada on March 22 after a trip to Mexico with this flu, but it was only identified as this type a couple of weeks later, since it didn’t seem different from any other severe flu and this type hadn’t yet been isolated and identified.

So that means that it’s probably had time to get pretty well distributed by now through air travelers, etc.

No more pork. No more peanut butter. No more Democrats? We can only hope.
