Goa swabbing UK FN for Swine Flu

old man · Apr 30th, 2009, 04:55

According to the papers, Goa is trying to trace 500 UK holiday makers to take swabs for Swine Flu.

The latest on the TV is now level 5. Level 6 being a pandemic. How would Goa cope? bearing in mind the way people spit in the road. Do you think this will stop? Will people realise that they are spreading germs?
According to the media this epidemic is getting out of all proportions with flights coming in and out of India from all over the world., what do you think Goa is going to do to stop this awful disease from spreading there.

Nothing that is going to work, that's for sure.

According to UK scientists yesterday, if 99.9% of all movements in and out of the UK were stopped immediately, it would only delay the introduction of a pandemic by a maximum of two months. And that's an island!

Is this thing killed by alcohol? That's Goa's only hope.
