Circum Spective

fear equals profit

Don't listen to all the ridiculous hype about the swine flu, and don't waste any energy worrying about it. I don't know who starts this kind of silly hysteria, but if I had to take a wild guess, I would say... probably the companies who stand to make a profit from the vaccine.

Anyway, here's a little-known (and almost never published) fact about the swine flu: it is no more virulent (no stronger and no more dangerous) than the usual, annually occurring version of influenza.

If you don't believe me, research it yourself.
