This is science, not fortune telling.

You know what?

Bad things are going to happen in the future.

And I'd be willing to bet dollars to donut holes that the bad things that happen won't have been predicted by you or any other "scientific" soothsayer.

Just this week the United Nations admitted that it has been exaggerating the AIDS epidemic for decades... for the children, of course.

That same United Nations is now on the Anthropogenic Global Warming bandwagon, hoping to become a de facto world government by being granted the authority to decide who gets to produce how much carbon dioxide.

Catastrophe science ain't science - it's politics.

“Bad things are going to happen in the future.”

It depends on who you vote for, some of the candidates have already taken a strong stand against “Bad Things”.

In fact, the Democrat party platform is dedicated to “No More Future Bad Things”.

Some of it is political nonsense, some of it is useful science.

Similarly, some conspiracy theories are well founded, and some political hokum.

Similarly, some stories in the New York Times are legitimate reporting, and some communist propaganda.

... and besides ... there are two things on this thread: (1) predictions of a future influenza pandemic, which I'd guess is what you're disparaging, and (2) medical analysis of the affects of Vitamin D, which I'd guess more of the respondents to this thread are finding useful (more useful at least than your reaction <grin>.)

“Catastrophe science ain’t science - it’s politics.”

so buy some Vitamin D and experiment for yourself.
