Are you prepared for the bird flu?

[denisenh]

I read somewhere that we should have 3 months supply of food in the house and be ready to spend that amount of time in our house if it should strike.
What are your plans?

I have a two week supply of beer. I guess I need to get some more.

 

[pearlieq]

No plans. I think the avian flu risk has been trumped up wildly - kind of consequence of 24 hour news media. Gotta have something to fill the time, might as well start scare-mongering for bird flu!

Are we over the monkeypox yet?

 

[kydisneyfans]

I'll use my stockpile from Y2K.

3 months supply of food? I can hardly afford to keep one months supply with the prices in the SuperMarket anymore.

I'm buying a big umbrella to take to WDW, so that when I walk in front of the Liberty Tree tavern, those seagulls don't crap bird flu on my head.

Are you prepared for EBOLA? It's pandemic in gorillas.

Finally, a use for for plastic sheeting & duct tape.

 

[Bravosntha2g]

I'm building a fallout shelter as we speak.

 

[The Mystery Machine]

Darn it, I knew I shouldn't have taken off the plastic with duct tape off my windows and doors yet.

 

[sweet angel]

I have a soon-to-be 15YO son -- where could I possibly store 3 months worth of food for him??????

 

[momof2inPA]

Wait, I think I'll prepare by buying stock in Del Monte and that company that makes Tamiflu.

 

[Divamomto3]

I'm wondering how I'm going to get out of going to work for 3 months...especially since I'm a nurse in a hospital!

What are you going to do? Wrap all the birds in your yard up in plastic and tape it shut so they don't spread the flu?

You are not going to get any good answers for this, there was already a long thread on this exact subject a couple of weeks ago

So, to give you a nicer reply.......... I hope you have a great evening !

Actually it hasn't been trumped up because the possibility of a major pandemic clearly exists. Its just that its not imminent and hasn't emerged to produce disease from human to human contact yet. When it does I think we will then have time to prepare more fully.

You won't. You will be working double time.
