Looks like an impending pandemic to me. Glad I don't have to go into an office at the moment and risk infection. The foreign office have also just stated that all non-essential travel to affected areas should be avoided. -
yup...jut like "bird flu" did.
Funny how these things always seem to happen when the pharma stocks have taken a battering isn't it?Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

Birdflu only killed 250 people worldwide in 10 years. This has killed at least half of that amount in a week or so.Comment

Of course it is sad for the people affected, but I do not believe this will be a pandemic.
It is a good opportunity for the government to declare a state of emergency and introduce restrictions and control of peoples movements.
So please prepare to alert your "movement officer" before going to work in the next village."Condoms should come with a free pack of earplugs."Comment

Should the medical industry should do more to alleviate suffering in those affected (mostly Mexicans as it seems as the bug doesn't travel well), rather than a cure?Comment
