Bird Flu
Hype is what you call it. 41 dead in the world. Just buy stock in any company that get 10 billion grants to find a cure and sell it before everyone finds out this is BS. How many years have people lived on this earth and they just now found the bird flu?? And it has killed 41 people. How about the backdoor flu I bet more people have died from a backdoor cover than from the birdflu. Just think how many sports bettor have died when there team won or loss due to heart attack. We will soon see chicken hit $6.00 per pound.

Okay, I am going to be Mr. Cold & Logical here just to make you think a bit. This may seem a bit distasteful to some, but bear with me.
In a normal year, about 20,000 people in the US die of the flu. This is every year. So, 5 years = 100,000 flu deaths. I don't see Congress in a panic, throwing money at Flu research. It is business as usual.
The 9-11 attacks, however tragic, only killed about 3000 or so people. This is not every year, just a one time event. Huge money and effort being thrown into anti-terrorism programs, an ill-fated invasion of Iraq, to date costing us another 2000 US lives lost as military casualties, almost doubling the initial lives lost. Colin Powell now admits that Iraq had nothing to do with the 9-11 attacks.
If you had one problem killing Americans at a 100,000 per 5 years rate and another problem killing Americans, in comparison, at an extremely low rate which would seem to be the bigger problem? Which deserves the most attention?
My point ... emotions will cause you to think irrationally. Try to think more logically and you will make better decisions both in life and in wagering.

Some World Health Organization experts have predicted that as many as 100 million people could die.
However, if 50-75 million people die, some puppets like Levistep will buy the media spin and say it is "good" news, since the "predicted" 100 million did not die during the pandemic.
