Save us from the seals (if you believe the scientists that is)

[Caspin]

*looks around warily for sneezing seals*

So the seals got their flu from the birds and now they are going to give it to New Englanders, who will board planes and take it round the world? Hey ho. A flu pandemic is overdue, so at some point we'll have to deal with one. Let's hope the next pandemic is not as bad as Spanish Flu, which resulted in a cull of humans! Also wish that people with mild colds would not freak out and take anti-virals at their first sniff, so that the virus gains resistance and renders them useless when proper flu arrives. I will be interested to see if 'seal flu' makes it into my annual flu jab!
