Love that expression! On a more serious note, it's hard to think this is an accident. It starts in sparsely populated areas of poor locals, not people normally flying around the country. Maybe they're all just that damn stupid but makes you wonder.

It should not make you wonder. Many epidemics start that way. Bubonic Plague knocked around the Mid-East/Africa for centuries until weather conditions made its spread more possible or it mutated slightly.
There is no need for a conspiracy for this to happen.
