Hang on to your handlebars everyone, this isn’t going to end well.

The World Health Organization says a global pandemic is under way

[http://www.who.int/csr/disease/avian_in ... index.html](http://www.who.int/csr/disease/avian_influenza/phase/en/index.html)

149 cases of death in mexico in april alone?
Schools shutting down in mexico, minnesota, utah, and new york?
Government shutting down public transportation?
U.S. GOVERNMENT TO CLOSE THE BORDER?

Heres a map of places with confirmed/unconfirmed cases of the virus.

Considering I live about 30 miles from New york, they better close off the tunnels and bridges connecting new jersey and new york before me and fishrocker turn into zombies.

We are officially screwed guys, I’ll rather die of nuclear warfare then this. RUSSIA DO YOUR DAMN JOB

LOL Why is russia always assosiated with nuclear weapons… ?

haven’t you seen this on the news this past week?

and just now a thread talking about it…

and of course it is all over N America…

#3

I don’t know about you but when i hear about stuff like this I start freaking out. Off all things in the world, my worst fear is a pandemic, I can’t stand the isolation.

Now if you excuse me i’m going to go out and buy a truckload of beans.

#4

Ahhh, the swine flu. This. I wonder if/when it’ll reach NJ (I really hope it doesn’t), and if it does (which it better not), I hope I don’t know anybody who is infected. Well, I live further south in NJ than Roasty, so I’ll be away from the swine flu of New York vicims. Too bad for Jan. I think there are confirmed cases in Ohio

#5

it sucks for me too, im only about 50 or less miles away from the border, a couple cops asked me about it because i threw up at school, didnt go home though. until they forced me to.

#6

I am protected by the impenetrable fortress that is Canada

#7

The only cases in Ohio are up near Toledo, REA’s area. But he’s a computer so I don’t think he can get it.

Also, this reminds me of the fear of the bird flu.

#8

Ahh shit… I’m near two ‘confirmed’ markers
Damn Windsor for being so close to Detroit…

Also Anthony… I wouldn’t be too sure about that, it says there’s some confirmed cases of it in Vancouver…

#9


Something’s gotta give.
Ha, look at how insignificant the Black Plague looks in that context. One can only imagine a what 60% decrease in our current population would look like.

Not to worry though, the swine flu will pass by like the much feared avian flu earlier this year, NASA (and presumably whatever space program the EU has) is watching out for fiery death from above, there’s no such thing as global warming, and Jesus is coming around Christmas 2012. Screwed? I’ve never felt more safe.

#10

Ignoring the hopeless inaccuracy of that graph,
DarkDan, you better be careful! There have been 11 confirmed cases in California alone and most seem to be somewhat near your area.

#11

WELL, SINCE we are officially screwed, everybody just remember to eat as much ketchup as you can!

#12

Now Roasty and I have to be careful. There are 5 possible cases (I don’t know if they’ve been confirmed yet) here in NJ. In the newspaper, I was reading an article about it, and they kept talking about the Jersey Shore Medical Center in Neptune (where I was born at) and the Monmouth County Health Officials. That sucks. I don’t live that far away from Monmouth County. I feel wierd talking about this kind of New Jersey business, because nobody else here is even close to NJ except for Roasty, myself, and a few other people who I told about this site that I go to school with (because we all live in NJ)

YUCK! I HATE KETCHUP!

I just remembered! I went to the zoo over spring break and I saw PIGS! I highly doubt I’m infected, because that was over 2 weeks ago, and I’m pretty sure the swine flu would have shown up by now. Besides, it was probably still in Mexico at that time…

#13

I hate you

#14

So do I…

#15

I hate ketchup too, so its:

Fishrocker and Anthony vs KdIuLdLeA and Spacepixel

Yeah, I know I just contributed to the off topicness of this thread but lets get back on topic…

#16

Sorry Anthony, but there have been 2 confirmed cases of the swine flu in Vancouver.

#17

OH CRAP!!! I just got back from the doctor’s and they said I have it.

#18

#19

Just kidding

#20

Oh shit! This is not good, man. Just in case the swine flu turns people into zombies, I’ll be in my basement, loading up my shotgun and other good shit.
I will also build a fortress around my house. It will be protected by a fence made with Master Chief’s armor and guns, lots and lots of guns. Prepare for the worst,
my friends, prepare for the worst…
