Fox just had a report on this and stated that this threat which was compared to the 1918 flu, is not anywhere by comparison.

Many died from secondary infections. That wouldn't happen today.

I have extra food and water but just like Y2K, I feel it's a be prepared but not upset situation.

Agreed. We can always eat the food we have by rotating. Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

Me too. I keep six months worth of dried food plus water and a water filter. I think most of the hysteria is on the part of the government and MSM which seem to be doing everything they can to promote it.

My ex is a genetics researcher (double Ph.D.) with the National Institute of Health. She believes the threat represents a real potential disaster.

My ashthma and allergy doctor isn't worried about the bird flu. Even if there is an outbreak, he thinks we can handle it.
