I love Chris Wallace. A very humble and classy journalist.

which is exactly why it kills me when people say they are just listening to the officials. These people ("experts" included) are imbeciles that have a good grasp on politics and that is the only way they have rose to their position. They have no clue what they are talking about and only read their prepared speeches that have been censored because they did not agree with something an actual expert said. |

Pigs infected with influenza by homo sapien
Did anyone catch this story in the SA-EN yesterday? Apparently a pig farm in Alberta Canada is under quarantine because the pigs caught the flu from a person. 
Said person had just visited Mexico last month. The pigs apparently do not observe healthy personal hygiene. 
More about this story here-----> www.mysanantonio.com |

I saw that on KENS this morning and the guy had a hard time keeping a straight face.. it's funny how over time we're constantly finding things we didn't know before. They've probably always been there, but either nobody knew it or cared.

The Catholic church asked people NOT to shake hands during service to prevent the possible spread of disease.Moderator cut: off topic

Reason: That off topic comment will drag this thread in a direction that belongs in the P&OC forum.

Let's see, we've known about this virus for about 2 weeks plus a few days. (Mexico didn't report until after the US did) Scientists aren't omnipotent.
Any person who claims to be knowledgeable recognizes that science takes time, even working 24/7 which everyone has been since this has started. |

I got my hand sanitizer, not germ-x though, for a buck at the Dollar Tree. Its 8 oz. It kills 99.99% of bacteria. |
