Flu Pandemic Webpage Posted


The Defense Department's deployment health officials have posted a

webpage as part of President Bush's strategy to combat the

possibility of a flu pandemic. The page includes frequently asked

questions, information geared to service members and links to other

resources. The president last week called for $7.1 billion in

emergency funding and $1.2 billion to buy 20 million doses of a

vaccine against the current avian flu. For more information, visit

the new Defense Department's webpage. http://www.pandemicflu.gov

Towing the party line.
Sure he'll get the 1.2 billon out of the culture of fear he has built...but where will he spend it?

Seriously, the only maker of the vaccine has said it is tapped out for the next 12 months, there isn't anywhere to buy the stuff....

Also, just imagine all the useful stuff he could have bought with the 170+ billion he spent to fund his current empire building escapades.

And the vaccine will likely be ineffective against whatever mutation the bird flu virus experiences to make it highly communicable. And it might never go through such a mutation.
