Bird Flu
I don’t know how you feel about this whole bird flu nonsense, but I couldn’t give a fig.
If it does cross the species divide and start going from human to human, it’ll start by wiping out the elderly and infirm. Result? Lots more cheap property on the market.
Look at this chap, he had the bird flu and now they’re giving him an award (or something, I didn’t read it all)- it’s not exactly Necrotising Fasciitis is it?
UPDATE: For anyone who didn’t realise that images of a flesh eating bacteria might be somewhat grim, don’t click on the Necrotising Fasciitis link above if you’re eating a sandwich.
I swear to jesus and all that is holy I will never click on another link on here.
Slightly OT but just curious of something. Please correct me if I am wrong China Old Hands, but i heard the last time there was the big bird flu scare all Hot Pot restaurants were forced to shut due to the risk of flu-spreading?
:| those images are going to fuel my nightmares for weeks.
I hate that peace sign they all do, it’s babyish
I just threw up in my mouth!
Sorry kristi but not even Jesus can erase those images from my mind.
As for bird flu, we won’t know it’s happening until a few thousand people are infected. The gov will find a way to hide it as long as they can. Why worry? Just take your vitamins and drink enough whiskey to kill the virus.
Thanks for the warning. I just so happen eating my lunch! lol
Okay I am commenting on the pictures of the bird flu guy and not the flesh eating bacteria…so much for anonymity. I am sure with the three pictures of the guys face…a couple blurring the eye area, last one covering the mouth and giving the guys last name, people in his area will know who he is….
He needs to get ready for the finger pointing and public ostracization. (sp?…is it even a word?)
changed something- testing. Dingle- can you try it again?
Nice pictures, thanks.
also nice to meet u the other night.
Hey Freddy – it was nice to meet you too but I only the next day when I thought about it and realised you were the same guy who comments on here! Oops.
Anyway, nice to meet you
I caught bird flu once. It’s horrible. Throwing up, sweating, puking, feeling like crap and hating life. Plus there’s the expense at the drug store so it’s not all good. I think I nearly died. Oh well, such is life.
I am pretty sure bird flu is caused by drinking Sanlu milk. Just sayin’…
Postulated to my Japanese Engineer student as part of a speaking class… “What would you do if millions of Chinese caught bird flu ?”
Hypothetical, of course.
“I would run back to Japan.”
I say “Quarantine in Osaka?” 2 weeks in a camp ?
“No problem”
In Oz, Me too.
