Sometimes, people make me all stabby.

I just read this article : http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=10569348

 

Basically, on a flight back from Cancun, two men were drunk, and presumably throwing up... So naturally, everyone assumed they had swine flu.

 

You can't tell the difference between so drunk you're sick, and the flu?

 

I'm just sick of hearing about this stuff.  All of the Media outlets, talk about the number of deaths/cases that are SUSPECTED, and forget to mention that there are only seven confirmed deaths in Mexico.  SEVEN people.  That is not a reason to halt all international travels (I'm looking at you European Union, and CDC).  Especially when the world health organization is recommending that no borders need to be closed, and travel plans should go on, as planned.

 

There are no cases even suspected in the area of Mexico I'm going.  As it stands right now, I'd be more likely to catch this thing in New York City.
