I've read somewhere that their is only 2 strains of smallpox still in existence, both under World Health Organization jurisdiction

Thats mostly true

Those, from what I understand, are whats known.
However they cant say for sure because there were a few countries that chose to remain uninvolved in getting vaccine...Most notably North Korea. So we dont really have any idea wether North Korea has stores of there own of smallpox.

Hey pal tone it down, this isnt pvp or wtv guild crap forums.

i evidently wasnt serious with that remark and if your short span brain does not assimilates that then i suggest you hold your outbursts to yourself.

maybe grow up for a change some ppl joke about serious things because they are very serious.

and it is you who are stupid to just say something liek that out of the blue.

i had smallpox it was horrible but it went away and now i joke about it its not stupid.

Isnt there some rule against trolling around on offtopic ?

Re: Swine Flu Outbreak

The U.S. now has 91 confirmed cases of the new swine flu in 10 states.

Until now the government had known of outbreaks in just five states. But the new information shows cases in five more: Massachusetts, Michigan, Arizona, Nevada and Indiana.

WHO (World Health Organization) flu chief Dr. Keiji Fukuda told reporters that developments in the disease are moving the agency closer to raising its pandemic alert to phase 5, which indicates widespread human-to-human transmission, from its current level of 4.
Phase 6 is the highest in the scale and is for a full-scale pandemic.

sure but the major risk is in airliners and mass transports of ppl. not really an oil carrier.

anything is seen as excuse to raise oil prices these days :(

I completely agree.

Re: Swine Flu Outbreak

I guess the only good news to be seen so far is that if we need emergancy vaccines it'd take 2 months and that WHO is currently attempting to acquire key ingrediants in order to begin mass production of a vaccine.

Human diseases we have built in immunities towards, however, animal diseases from pigs and birds, it is a completely different situation. I suppose that is why swine flu and bird flu get such media publicity. Because humans are being warned as quickly as possible about dangerous diseases that we have no immunity against.

Phase 4 is close to being switched to phase 5. It's going to get pretty fucked up by the beginning of next week.

My advice is the same as the specialists. Wash your hands, wear breath masks, stay indoors, and avoid touching anything in grocery stores unless you have too.

Why not we do it about the plague, WW 2, and worst stuff even.
a lil black humour if you will.

like i said i had that when i was a kid, the one thing it remember was making fun of connecting dots while i had it so i feel perfectly comfortable making fun of it .

Let me make it clear that I wasnt making fun of how ppl die from it.

I have no idea how you got offended to such a degree to call someone you dont know "fucking stupid",if you did it because of guild relation then please take notice I make sure real life is not merged with in game stuff.

this is off topic and different ppl from different places talk about different things so plz dont mix uo rivalries with real life.

if you lost someone to that disease then im sorry but i honestly dont think people die from it nowadays since there has been a cure for long now.

and ill keep making fun of serious things exactly because their serious.

We all deal with reality in our own ways if you disagree plz call on attention and we can have a civilized conversation about it in which ill permit you to tell me why you found my remark out of line, and ill explain why i did it and how i didnt meant it to sound offensive.

tk care

Re: Swine Flu Outbreak

The World Health Organization raised its pandemic alert for swine flu to the second highest level Wednesday, meaning that it believes a global outbreak of the disease is imminent.

"All countries should immediately now activate their pandemic preparedness plans," Chan told reporters in Geneva. "It really is all of humanity that is under threat in a pandemic."

A phase 5 alert means there is sustained transmission among people in at least two countries. Once the virus shows effective transmission in two different regions of the world a full pandemic outbreak — level 6 — would be declared, meaning a global epidemic of a new and deadly disease.

So just because other people make jokes about things like the plague and smallpox, that makes it okay for you to do it too?

I just find that highly illogical.

That is in the same report I've been reading.

Glad more people are paying attention.


159 in Mexico killed by the virus and 1,300 more are being tested for the infection.

11 States are infected in the U.S. and Germany (3) and Austria (1) have also reported more infections, making a total of 9 countries infected world wide.

And 100+ cases confirmed in Austrailia.

Oh and keep in mind these symptoms.
