Let’s be careful about panicking. It may turn out to be serious, but the virus seems to be treatable with readily available drugs, and is certainly not always fatal. It’s very easy to make a story like this sound like the end of the world, but it may not turn out to be much at all in the grand scheme of things.

I’m guessing that for every confirmed case, there are several or more who don’t get tested.

I thought the chain letter analogy for Captain Trips was really powerful, especially when King described the lives and actions of some of the “carriers” of CT. You feel sorry for the New York family knowing they’re all going to die. I really like the quote near the end of the chapter: “Chain letters don’t work. It’s a known fact. The million dollars or so you are promised if you’ll just send one single dollar to the name at the top of the list, add yours to the bottom, and then send the letter on to five friends never arrives. This one, the Captain Trips chain letter, worked very well. The pyramid was indeed being built, not from the bottom up but from the tip down- said tip being a deceased army security guard named Charles Campion. All the chickens were coming home to roost. Only instead of the mailman bringing each participant bale after bale of letters, each containing a single dollar bill, Captain Trips brought bales of bedrooms with a body or two in each one, and trenches, and dead-pits, and finally bodies slung into the oceans on each coast and into quarries and into the foundations of unfinished houses. And in the end, of course, the bodies would rot where they fell.” (Book, uncut edition p. 70)

My sister and her hubby have been in Cancun and Cozumel since Thursday and they just called today AND ARE TOTALLY OBLIVIOUS TO WHAT IS HAPPENING REGARDING THIS MEXIFLU THING!
She says they have been told NOTHING by NO ONE. They are due to fly back into Boston tomorrow, and I’m just wondering what sort of precautions U.S. Customs is going to take when they land.

The Ohio Department of Health says a 9-year-old boy who recently traveled to Mexico on vacation with his family has a confirmed case of swine flu. So why doesn't the whole family have it?

The Ohio Department of Health says a 9-year-old boy who recently traveled to Mexico on vacation with his family has a confirmed case of swine flu. Who in their right mind would travel to a 3rd world country, in the middle of violent drug wars, and now this?
Either illegal aliens, a family of drug smugglers or just stupid people.

OK, here's the deal. I got flu-like symptoms a week and a half ago - sinus headaches, runny nose, thicker mucus - typical cold symptoms. Last Tuesday, it expanded to a sore throat. Wednesday, after mowing the grass, the body aching started and I felt run-down. Started coughing as well. Thursday morning, I visited the doctor.
What did the doctor do? She asked my symptoms and I gave them to her. She looked in my ears, nose, and throat. She listened to me breath with the stethoscope. She took my blood pressure and had me weigh in.
Then she said that I had what was likely a sinus infection, or possibly the flu. Gave me a prescription to an antibiotic and recommended a stronger antihistamine. Gave me a sample of some nasal steroid spray (which I promptly broke).
This is typical of the type of examination one gets when they get a cold or respiratory flu-like symptoms. I've never had an exam that involved isolating any particular strain of flu. And yet they're suddenly finding these cases of swine flu popping up here and there.
I think that this entire "swine flu" issue is a farce. Perhaps it's another government-invented "emergency" that will require a response that 'only government can provide'. I don't trust 'em a bit.
