Wahhhh Wahhh! Shut up about this stupid flu. Big deal a few Mexicans died. The regular flu kills 500,000 every single year and nobody cares. Get over it, this is just another case of making a big deal about nothing. Just curious, did the Swine kill all the Mexican drug cartels? Havent heard too much about them.

Actually I think its more like 35,000 a year die from the flu.

Other than that I totally agree with you. This outbreak is relatively minor and the effect it is having in the US is much less than in Mexico in terms of severity. However, the news channels dont like to touch on that, they are working on their "the end is near" graphics for the evening news.

Because if he does that who will reimburse people who have spents $$$$$ for vacations to Mexico....the agencies that booked them??? Insurance if people were smart enough to buy it???

But, it's a big deal for Mexico. It's not a couple of Mexicans who died. Over hundreds died. Do you not have any sympathy for the welfare of other countries who are suffering/paranoid?

There's a difference between having sympathy for an illness that unfortunately killed people in Mexico and wasting millions of dollars to try to ramp up a potential domestic response to an illness that has yet to kill a single American.

Do you realize how many people die of starvation around the world yet we arent on here preaching about it.
