Well your preparations are not wrong...but basically, the swine flu is a hoax.
Don't get me wrong- a lot of people have died of it, even more have been infectet.
BUT (and that's a big BUT) *each* year the ordinary flu takes more victims. And not just a few more...
The swine flu is basically the same as the "normal" flu (a lot of medical professors not in the employment of the pharmaceutic industry say that, too)- the virus mutates every year and every year some new medicaments have to be developed.
The one thing this flu panic archived...in many countries, the government has now taken over the research cost and guarantees the buying of the medicamentation. So the industry has successfully handed over the buissiness risk from their research onto the general public.
Cheers
