[quote=Anonymous]"Ripe for a pandemic" PP, pandemics don't work that way. There isn't some clock that times outbreaks of mass death, using different infections each time. HIV is unrelated to flu which is unrelated to Ebola. Flu does seem to go in cycles, and there are bound to be big flu outbreaks that are more fatal than others. Good news is we are better at treating flu than we used to be. But flu is still deadly and awful. If you must worry, worry about flu and go get your flu shot. While Ebola is awful and scary, it is important to remember that of the millions and millions of people in the countries impacted by Ebola in West Africa, only a few thousand have been infected. That isn't a terribly infectious spread. Not that the US should be complacent, but that we should keep some perspective.[/quote]
