I can't see what all the fuss is about. The swine flu death toll currently stands at 49 in the UK, whereas regular flu can claim as many as 4000 lives a year (according to the UK Vaccine Industry Group. I guess they have a vested interest in bigging up the death tolls though).
I know 4 people where I work, and another 6 or 7 on top, who've had swine flu, and they all said they felt really shit for a week or 10 days and then carried on with their lives. Their biggest problem was cabin fever.

Do you think we should start culling the old and the infirm to halt the spread...?

little bit of purging of the weak, lazy and infirm should get us out of a recession quicker I reckon

old
ill
people on benefit
That'll solve the housing problems, the pensions blackhole, free up the NHS and reduce the amount the Govt is paying out.
You know it makes sense

He's nothing but trouble, and I'm sure he'd agree with the sentiment.
