Militarization of Swine Flu Preparations

I'm not going to take anything specific out of that article. I'll just let the rest of you have fun.

---------------------------------

Now, we still have to understand: it is difficult NOT to panic. Personally, I have no reason to panic when it's my life that might be in danger, as I know my life doesn't have as much consequence as I might feel it should. But I've already lost nearly all of my friends and relatives to either Death or Betrayal, and THAT is where the fear eats at me.

I feel stupid for having to make the reminder, but oh well: Regardless of personal feelings, when something like this happens that may be catastrophic, assume the worst-case scenario and prepare appropriately.
