They actually closed my school down for a week because of the swine flu (I believe it was an overreaction). I have relatives who caught the swine flu, bit they live a thousand miles from me and only one of them died, but that really was only because her immune system was almost non - existant, so, yeah, it was an overraction in America
amazing how the media is freaking out over a virus that isnt even as bad as the normal flu. oh, how im so much smarter than the media at the age of 13.
On a an topical comedy programme, they showed an american news clip explaining that Barack Obama had declared the virus a national emergency. After that, the presenter said that 'he only wanted to protect American kids. British kids didn't give a s***.' Then you saw a clip and it was a British reporter that was outside a school, and behind him there were children wearing their grandparents' gas masks and holding their middle fingers up to the camera. I am proud of my country and our ability to laugh in the face of... anything.

Either way, stomach flu is worse than this. Blah to the mass vaccination plan too, darned money grubbers.
