Swine flu the latest push

When reading the news it seems like every week there is a new story about some super killer that is about to erupt onto the scene and kill half the state. I recall just in the last few years Ebola virus, Streptococcal virus, avian bird flu now the latest H1N1 swine flu. It is all the latest rage. I bet there are 15 news stories from across the state today about it.

Now, not to diminish the loss of the one person who passed because of the swine flu but don't multiple people die from the regular flu every year? How crazy are people going to go about this one death and let tons more from other more common illnesses go unreported?

I am starting to think this is practically all contrived to keep people in a state of perpetual fear. With the hope that people will look to the government as the great savior.
