P0MG!! SOMEONE ISN'T SCARED OVER THE THOUGHT OF DYING ABOUT SWINE FLU, aka. Galanoth's rant on Swine flu

OK, people! Shut up about swine flu! It's NOT A BIG DEAL. 0.5% of people who get swine flu actually die from it. That's 5 people for every 1000 who catch it. You have roughly the same chance of dying from cancer, and they're not doing anything about that now are they? The only reason anyone cares about it is because it's new. If swine flu had existed for a year before it reached Britain, people would be all like, "oh. a new disease. well, don't worry, they'll find a cure." but because it's new, it's more like "OH NO!! THERE'S NO CURE!! WE'RE GOING TO DIE!! QUARANTINE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING ABROAD TO STOP THE SPREAD!! IT'S THE APOCALYPSE!!". The reason the Daily Mail actually writes about it so much is so that everyone buys it to find out if they're going to die from swine flu, which they're not because there's less than 1% chance of dying from it.
