Put in your title then on the date. I am so sick of people trying to create this crisis.
I work in the healthcare profession and my company is making all kinds of money on the flu kits we sell. Our business is better in 4 days than it has been in the past 4 months for the flu so I should be the one creating the hysteria.
We are seeing people go into the ER with no symptoms of anything wanting flu tests because of what the media and the US Gov’t has been putting out. Everyone is CYA right now because they would rather be safe than sorry.
The hysteria is ridiculous and the hysteria on FR is embarrassing.
I thought I had.. I apologize...
Yes we do not need hysteria, overblown statistics from the media, just facts...
Hopefully we can find that here.
I’ve been saying the same thing over and over yet the doomers are having a hay day with this (drumbeat of Spanish Flu comparisons, the Bubonic Plague, cytokine storms, 20 - 40 year olds dropping dead...). All of this in the face of an illness that has not killed a single American citizen!
It is beyond embarrassing to see Freepers acting this way...
I hear you on that....
I recieved an email from a friend who has a friend “that has extensive training in combating bioterrorism concerns, pandemics etc. I am off to heed her advice and buy some extra flu meds!”
Yes, I rolled my eyes at that statment......I wrote back that I am not real concerned and I am still waiting to die from the bird flu of a few years ago.....I also said that about 30,000 people die from regular flu every year so panic is not in my game plan......
