The fact that the flu has made the jump is worrisome. I saw that WHO issued a statement basically saying what Karen said - this is from a CNN article online: http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/05/03/swine.flu/index.html <> I saw something about Ron Paul talking about the 1976 swine flu. Does anyone know, did that flu not go anywhere and just fizzled out? Thank you for all your wonderful articles on preparedness, it has greatly helped our family. I saw a show an Oprah a few years ago on when we have another pandemic (not if it will happen but when it happens, because another will hit). The doctor on said basically the same thing, your only chance is isolation, pure and simple. He also warned that everything will shut down. Gas stations, supermarkets, everything, and basically be prepared for a three month isolation to keep your family safe. I wonder how many people are really prepared?

Government's "solution" often ends up the bigger problem. Especially when it comes to taking a chomp out of our individual liberty. I agree. Government’s “solution” often ends up the bigger problem. Especially when it comes to taking a chomp out of our individual liberty.

Gagin Sun, 03 May 2009 20:59:55 +0000 http://www.backwoodshome.com/blogs/DaveDuffy/?p=916#comment-2341 Mr. Duffy, We should not be as worried about the swine flu as much as we should be worried about what our government will attempt to do about it. Our government is not comprised totally of idiots. They will use this situation to their advantage. However, I don't rule out a few idiots here and there within the bowels of the bureaucracy making the problem worse; or a busybody doing everything whether it be right or wrong in an attempt to look pro-active. This is a good time to try to justify more health care schemes or regular schemes disguised as health care reform. Mr. Duffy,

Yes, my dog ate my homework. Okay, now onto the comment: Did I remember correctly that John stated the worst case scenario was the avian flu, mutating to swine flu, transmitting to humans and THEN human to human infection? It sure would be nice to have this almost prophetic pearl of wisdom posted online. Between that and the Coming American Fascism, your magazine may be considered a three to five year crystal ball! Robert Dave,
