Yeah, I live down the road from the school mentioned in that article and my next door neighbours' kid was on the school trip to Mexico. Apparently he's sick now.

My neighbours were apparently in Mexico earlier this month.

Fuck.

I'm staying indoors.

So apparently Egypt is slaughtering perfectly healthy pigs in response to an influenza virus that's being transmitted from human to human. Brilliant. The WHO's response? We won't call it "swine" flu anymore. Brilliant.

Pandemic = When pigs fly.

They killed millions of perfectly fine cows during the mad cow problems because it was cheaper than stopping them getting it.
