Bradley, Sunfish, will you help me out here?

I think the W.H.O. confirmed H1N1 cannot be contained in one area, or even several areas. Restricting the passage of people on airliners won't help keep the flu out of Australia or any other country. Is this right?

If it's not true, what are the measures we can best use to keep the flu out of Australia, and are they being utilized?

If the W.H.O. is on the money, why do you propogate the hype in 2009 instead of waiting till next year.

Time magazine just ran a copy saying it's all over until 2010. I figure they've used the good oil in greasing their rag. Are they quoting reliable sources?

You, and Time magazine, identify the world's health facilities as unable able to cope with forecasted numbers of infected people. Time differs in reporting we don't have to worry about that inconvenient truth until 2010.

If that date were an absolute, is there sufficient time to prepare, and if so, why do you keep banging on about how we're stuffed NOW, not later?

Lastly, isn't Tamiflu a dud if H1N1 mutates, as virus' are prone to do?

Does that mean we're doomed?

I know I am.

It's all a mystery to me, but I'm not at all worried. Hungry, but not worried.
