Just imagine how many people caught TB or AIDS everyday by global statistics and WHO should have declared world pandemic for every known communicatable disease, you will feel much better for a curable flu.

I agree with everyone else, it is hype.

Hey Raul from May 4th, 2009 – Re: I have a conspiracy theory. I can surely agree with your written expression, but only positively on one point – It is a conspiracy. And, these situations are no longer theories. YouTube this: Luke Rudkowski – ‘U.S. media doesn’t want truth’. Do the research.

Note to AZJ:
Yes, I make it a point to read all comments on the blog. I like for the discussion to be largely among readers, since I’ve already had my say–and at some length.

However, when appropriate I will wade back in to the debate.

Thanks for reading!

I have a consipiracy theory, this could have been made to create terror among humanity. some makers of medicine & vaccine and genius in developing diseases may have created the H1N1 for profit & commercial purpose.

So today Mexico reports that the worst of the swine flu is over; and it is no worse than a regular flu. How much money was spent on this? Did Obama not asked for a billion dollars, and asked companies to give as much time as the employees asked? How much did this cost to airlines, travel agencies? How much did this cost to the Mexican and world economy?
I think the news media need to do some real soul searching. Hype sells but it will eventually backfire.

The hype seems to be an effective way of distracting people from the government’s antics and also to keep our minds off the economy crisis. I don’t know for sure how big this swine flu epidemic will get but at the moment, I think it’s all hype.
