Supposedly there is a possible case in Pennsylvania but I have not been able to find any hard evidence on it yet.

All red state of Oklahoma also passed some of the toughest immigration laws on the books.

Not to nitpick, but the “confirmed” link you provide for South Dakota is dated Jan. 15 of this year and concerns swine flu. My head is spinning from so much info coming out so rapidly. Is this the same as the H1N1 strain, I wonder? Too many names for this flu for this non-scientific person. :)

Someone must have infiltrated my mind-meld with Napolitano.

You SWORE it would work. How can you let us down again?! Let me guess. This tinfoil you gave me does nothing to reflect the mind rays from the NWO satellites?!

My wife works for a hospital in the western suburbs. The people in the ER told her yesterday that they are swabbing EVERYBODY who comes in with anything like flue symptoms.

Hmmm... Starting to REALLY wonder now whether the “flu” my family ALL came down with the second week of April was really just the “flu”... (we’re in WI). [Oddly, I didn’t get sick till about 5 day after the rest of them, and in me whatever it was manifested as a VERY brutal Bronchial infection — probably cause I was taking care of my 4 girls and husband the week before. I guess I could’ve had a “mild” case that I didn’t notice till I stopped having to “nurse” them 24/7.]

There is some indication that this virus made a noticeable appearance in late March in Mexico, although the doctors and such didn’t recognize what they were dealing with.

Polarik (and others): According to your understanding, and research on this is it a possibility that this has been around for a “while” (say a few months), and the “Outbreak” seen in Mexico City was the result of a “strength-type” mutation of a previously unrecognized (and untested for) virus?

Maybe I’m getting ahead of myself here, but I have a feeling this has been around for a tad bit longer than some have assumed, and many of us flu victims of the last month or so might not have necessarily had the “regular” flu.

[Part of what makes me think this is because no-one in my family has been sick in YEARS, and everyone but me came down with this flu on the exact same day, AND we homeschool (kids didn’t get it at school), and my hubby got laid off so he didn’t get it from work. When I went to the doctor for my bronchitis they said there was a “late season” flu “going around”. And, when I brought my one daughter to the doctor when her fever came back, and she was having trouble with a sore throat - they only tested for Strep. It’s not like THOUSANDS of us couldn’t have already HAD this flu, is it?]

Sorry, I’m not panicking or anything, just trying to understand this (and hoping maybe my family has already “had this” and gotten over it, and hopefully has some immunity). My greatest fear as a mom is to watch my children suffer some illness and not be able to really help — while my children and husband were not as sick as say my husband was when he had bacterial pneumonia 10 years ago — I had 5 people in BED sick for 5 days... Anyone who knows my kids probably wouldn’t believe me if I said they Stayed in bed for even ONE day, much less five because they felt sick. Praise God they all seem to be OK now, and I know ‘regular’ flu can be a doozy, but this knocked them out... [Thankfully, I had Tylenol/Ibuprofen, FRESH CLEAN Water, and plenty of washrags, Nyquil, and such to help them - honestly can’t imagine how my grandmother, and on back dealt with taking care of sick children — I praise God I live in an age of antibiotics, penicillian, antivirals, and quality doctors, etc...]

This is one of ten major entry points from Mexico. This goes on 27/7, 365 days a year.

And the government won't shut this down?

Those in government refusing to secure our borders should be immediately arrested and prosecuted. Fill the jury with the infected.

It’s generic tinfoil.

I am sorry. I thought that if you believed...it would be enough.
