I don't know if its bunker time yet but its the little invisible things like this that worry me more than tornado's and Chinese invasions.

Nah, but you might want to cook your food a little more. And wash your hands....

after seeing the inside of a European kitchen... I'm not too surprised. I'm talking restaurant kitchen, not residential kitchen, btw.

 

[grunt soldier]

but the crazy thing is over 2k people have contracted it and only like 18 have died from it. but they do say no antibiotics can touch it could turn into something pretty crazy

 

[GLOCKBOY]

I wouldn't worry too much

Like the swine flu and West Nile Virus, this is blown out of proportion by the press...as is almost evrything else that is a non-story.

 

[grunt soldier]

Lol the swine flu and stuff were blown out of proportion but antibiotics worked on them. Nothing around right now can help u if u get this. That's the difference I see in it. Also the news surprisingly hasn't talked about this one to much. I agree it's nothing to get to worked up over though

I'll go the other way and say "yes, head to the bunker, IMMEDIATELY"......but only if you can finish the novel and get it to the printing press or on the ingo forum. Otherwise, finish that, THEN go the bunker.

 

[mrjarrell]

Just don't eat any Spanish cucumbers and you should be good to go.

 

[eldirector]

I've heard rumors that the antibiotics are worse than the disease anyway.

My question is this; if it is SOOOOO bad why aren't more people dropping dead from it? Apply this principle to SOOOOO many things.

If I were you I would worry more about car accidents, heart attacks, and either breast or prostate cancer, depending. There is about as much as you can do to avoid/survive those and they are MUCH MUCH more likely to occur outside of the popular press.
