Im not a fear monger, I dont panic easily and Ive always been an optimist. Having said that I have been watching this thing from day one and I really cant understand why you think its coming under control. I first watched this about a month ago with the first Toronto case. It started with 1 person. The entire medical establishment was informed and took every measure to bring it under control yet it has mushroomed from 4 probable cases in Canada to over 200 with over 300 suspected and many more under quarantine.
I just wish it would go away since I have a great many plans for the immediate future and they dont involve plinking squirrels for dinner :). If it were under control then why did the death rate increase to 9.5% today and why has it spread to Montreall and even to the U.S. via Montreall. The numbers have been on a steady increase since day one. They do not indicate a diminishing problem.

From what I can tell _Jim doesn't let logic get in the way. Waco was by the book, TWA 800 was caused by a center fuel tank explosion, and Vince Foster simply killed himself in the park.

ARE YOU aware that the rate seems to have leveled off (may have even dropped) in Hong Kong?
