Every year there is a big epidemic. YES, it is a VERY unfortunate situation and my prayers are with *all* affected and I'm praying for the health of those who are exposed. However, I do not think it's *as* huge as the media has made it out to be.
The media's reaction to this flu has people TERRIFIED to leave their homes. While it is bad, it's not *that* bad in most areas. |
I agree. Since Jan 13000 ppl died from the regular flu. This has killed less than that, so y r they making this such a big deal? Maybe there is more they're not telling us. Either way it's good they're talking about it because people will more likely get treated and not go in public to spread the germs. I normally have allergies and are not contagious, but if I'm sick now I'll more likely check with my doctor before going into work. I think everyone will be fine as long as we wash our hands and not eat/drink out of anyone else.
