The study demonstrates that most deaths caused by RSV occur in the elderly." These are significant numbers. *************************************************************** Silence is consent.

If it was bad enough to evacuate the area, would you do that before or after it hit ? Would you want the government to get its emergency teams prepared before or after it hit ? Do you think there is value in being prepared before an event, or would you wait till after ? Would you monitor the progress of a potential pandemic, or not ? Would you prepare for it before, or after, it hit ? *************************************************************** Silence is consent.

And it's got a finite useful life before it's no good anymore, or at the very least loses some effectiveness. So pushing antibiotics is ALWAYS good business, even if it's not good medicine. Mike

No disagreement, but a lot of those that die as a result of contracting a virus don't die from the virus, they die from a secondary bacterial infection.

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Let's see... you automatically ASSUME that because someone's Hispanic, they must be illegal, because, ya know, they're all like that... And yes, that really DOES come across as racist. So did the bit about Obama not caring about white people. What, did you NOT think Kanye West was a racist when he said it about Dubya? Mike

Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: I assumed that, since they're FROM Mexico, and living in Texas, where folks can quite literally cross the border by simply walking over a patch of empty ground...yeah, it's reasonable to conclude that they MIGHT be here illegally. There are 12 to 20 million illegals in this country, you know. And since legal status has nothing to do w/ race, it's a matter of FOLLOWING THE LAW ( remember how important you folks keep saying that is ? ) , race is of zero significance here, what so ever.
Quote:So spare us all the P.C. bullshit, and just admit you're being a dick head for the sake of being a dick head.
Quote: And do you really need me to explain the Kanye West remark, in reference to Obama ? Wow. You really are that dense.
