Doctors tracking swine flu in California are investigating a new theory: What if it didn't originate in Mexico but instead had been floating around the border region for months?
Growing evidence in California suggests that early flu cases had no apparent origin in Mexico. Many of the early California victims — including the first two cases — say they hadn't traveled to Mexico and had no contact with pigs. Some may have fallen ill before the first Mexicans did.

OBOMA’S FAULT.......OBAMA’S FAULT..........OBAMA’S FAULT.
Not specific to this article, but I have wondered if something wasn’t released here, then we, in our international travel didn’t take it to Mexico where it had harsher consequences.
But be sure and don’t mention that they were walking shoulder to shoulder with illegals out there, many whom might have been crossing the border for medical help. Well, They’ve gone and done it, it’s our fault. Besides, I don’t believe this nonsense ... The flu was probably raging for months before folks picked up on what was going on.
The release valve on the “Close the Borders” pipe has been saved once again ....
bttt
Maybe the culprit is the same pig farm that was accused of contaminating the spinach last year.
TODAY SWINE FLU
Had no contact with pigs?? How about contact with Mexicans??
The first cases of the 1918 flu were in Kansas.
They’ve been having problems for several years now with avian flu in the Orient, including a significant number of human deaths after direct contact with infected animals.
Travel between California and the far East, especially considering the large Asian population in that state, could have brought a mutated virus here.
Frankly, that makes as much sense as Mexico. Maybe more.
So many do not know just how much pigs/swine have given and continue to give to humans! Many medical scientists say that
transplants of insulin-producing cells from pigs could provide a diabetes cure within a decade. A US team has reversed the condition in monkeys by transplanting cell clusters, known as islets, from pig pancreases, a study in Nature Medicine reports. Also, the heart valves of pigs have been used in hundreds of thousands of heart transplants, and pig cells have shown promise in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
I also know about the use of high tech sterile water filters made from pig intestines which have proved to be excellent filters used at treatment plants for filtering drinking water. Guess if some folks knew this, they would leave our country because they would be afraid to drink our water!
And that group of students infected after their parents were brilliant enough to let them visit a third world country like Mexico?? Clearly the kids had lied and actually visited Kalifornia!!
Ohhhhhh! I see. It took the gub’mint 3 f*ckin months to figure out where the outbreak of tomato salmonella originated, but they can track the swine flu down in 5 days. RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!
Impossible!!!
Let me guess, La Raza did an in-depth study...
LOL! Perfect!
Since that puny Mexican died after shaking my hand, my inner circle of cowards will no longer pull my finger to relieve my gas pains. Look at Gethener's deer in the headlights stare at my finger! Come on Timmy pull my damn finger!
Who wants to be next to shake 0b0z0’s hand?
Right ... and either way, it still should be called the Mexican flu.
Guess if some folks knew this, they would leave our country because they would be afraid to drink our water
Too bad people don’t realize how eco friendly swine are. Summer is my favorite time to BBQ pork marinated in a honey bbq sauce with a tad of lemon juice and tap water. Yuuuumy!!!!!
