Indicates fear and desperation, IMO. Create an emergency and block communication. Must be frustrating that the ‘swine flu’ won’t co-operate. What’s next? A ‘terrorist’ attack maybe?
Even cooking the books by including any patient who presents with flu-like symptoms as "swine" flu, they have not been able to come up with justification for the emergency.
But all they have to do is declare one, and shut down any site where anyone says anything to the contrary.
Once the state controlls information, they control what happens, and we will be reduced to seeing if the trains are running on time...(which did NOT work...)
