This? This sudden explosion of swine flu?
Is fucking terrifying.
Holy everloving god, it scares the fucking bejezus out of me.
Why? Because it seems a little bit too much like the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic which killed somewhere between 20 and 100 million people.
...yeah, I got the willies something bad here.

And the U.S. (so far) has the resources to contain and cure it who have caught it. If it can be helped, then all can't be lost, yo.

If they managed to get a working vaccine, I won't freak. I'll have the first goddamned flu shot of my life-- happily!
Man, this is like my worst nightmare situation. The one I joked about in college when I went through my epidemiology kick for three years. *shudders* So of course it freaks me the everloving hell out.
