Blaming the media for the CDC's publicity campaign seems weird to me. -- nm - mara Oct 23, 11:37 4
- people are freakin out in their gourds - people in the e/r waiting rooms are asking the other people there - Epiphany Oct 23, 11:43 3
  - Oh, local television newscasts. They do crap like that every day. "Something in your kitchen could be killing you! The story at 11:00!" -- nm - mara Oct 23, 11:47 2

WHO: nearly 5,000 swine flu deaths worldwide - decline Oct 23, 11:34 5
- people just being more cautious and it's not any more dangerous? I really don't know. - Epiphany Oct 23, 11:37 4
  - part of the so-called hype is because of the unknowns and because those being impacted are younger than regular flu. - b.oo! Oct 23, 11:40 3
    - I tend to live in a bubble - it's hard for me to give all these credence when I don't know anyone with it - Epiphany Oct 23, 11:45 2
      - would you say you know me? - b.oo! Oct 23, 11:50 1
        
        yes b! I would say I know you. - Epiphany Oct 23, 11:56
