So, we’re calling it “the flu” now?

Gives new meaning to the movie "One flu over the cuckoo's nest"

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

It isn't what you die of that counts, it is what they say you died of

Kind of like voting.

But did they end that sentence with “Period”?

The problem with tossing around “absolutes” is that it only takes one “exception” to make you look like a fool.
