Comments on: OK, Now I See The Real Problem https://whynow.dumka.us/2009/04/30/ok-now-i-see-the-real-problem/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Sun, 03 May 2009 19:10:18 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2009/04/30/ok-now-i-see-the-real-problem/comment-page-1/#comment-44663 Fri, 01 May 2009 05:31:08 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/?p=8821#comment-44663 You are just at the start of your season, so it would be really bad if you had two going at once. Our season should be winding down.

They are now calling influenza A H1N1, because it really isn’t a true swine flu, it is a hybrid. This is what happens when you cram people or animals together in small spaces – you will have one carrier that can affect those with no immunity.

We really need some hard numbers to model this, which hopefully the teams in Mexico will be able to supply.

It would be nice to know how it spread from the original village, now thought to be ground zero, to the rest of Mexico, because that village is not on a main road.

Too many questions, and insufficient data.

But that only works to detect people who already have a fever. It won’t catch anyone who has a bug still in the early incubation stage. Still, better than nothing I guess.

CSL (Commonwealth Serum Laboratories), about the only Gov organisation outside of the military Howard didn’t privatize, so it still works, says they will have a vaccine in a few weeks and should have enough for everyone in Aus in 1 to 2 Months. 🙂

They say it’s not a huge concern now, but it can mutate unpredictable and quickly, and they want to be ready for that.

If I could trust the airlines to do that, I wouldn’t be as down on them as I am.

My Mother noticed that Amtrak is much cleaner than any airplane she has been on in years. I’m so old I remember when airplanes were cleaned when they reached their final destination every day. The last time I flew, I wanted a HazMat suit when I looked inside the first aircraft.
