Yeah, but trying to predict if and when this virus will mutate is impossible to guess. It may never mutate in this way either.

If Ebola hightens its incubation period we would all be dead this day. The virus has a dead percent over 80%.

Now why center on the bird flu?

Finally someone thats with me on this one. Smile

Running around being scared for something that might happen is just waste of time. I bet you are afraid of meteors that potentioally MIGHT if we are very fucking unlucky hit earth in the next 20 years or so...

Can't do anything about meteorites.

But hey, if you want to be unprepared, then so be it. It is only your life.

But I can't see any real way to prepare. No known medicine that surely will work on a mutated version, by the time one can leave more populated areas it might already be too late and so on.

I am simply not a person that goes around worrying and planning for all what if viruses and so on. Only thing I know is where to go.

And I still think that the fact that you are worrying about this virus so much instead of the ones that actually can transer between humans by air or that has higher mortality rate feels a bit like you are listening to much to the news hysteria.

Maybe you shouldn't eat meat either, you could get cow madness...

I see the fact that we live our lives differently, it could be because you have children and so on. It could also be about how much each one worries about stuff on the news.

pff, since they found a dead cat in Germany and 3 infected ones in styria (which all already recovered btw) many people here in Austria are sending their cats to animal shelters now or euthanize them - out of pure unknowingness. Its really frightening how manipulative media can be and how accessible 90% of human population is for this scaremongering. And now the pets have to pay for it... Rolling Eyes
