Schwarzenegger has declared a state of emergency. The CDC is working on a vaccine. Medical muckymucks are warning of “pandemic potential” and telling people to reduce all human contact by 50% and stand 6 feet away from all people. New York schools are shutting down. In Chicago, school kids have been instructed not to shake hands. The Obama administration is being criticized for not declaring martial law.
My Lord, how many have died from this catastrophe? To quote MSNBC: “No deaths have been reported in the U.S.”
But surely the many who have the swine flu will kick the bucket any minute. And how many cases are those? 68.
Compare: every day some 116 people die in crashes on the nation’s highways. No one holds the owners of those roads responsible. Walter is right.
