Swine Flu and you

Allow for a second, some paranoia to set in. Imagine living in a nation where the government uses unwilling subjects to test and learn from diseases, a sort of "biological warfare" if you will. Now, imagine, if you will, a country that has already tested diseases on it's own citizens that after 40 years, was finally revelled, so now they have to use that disease on another countries population. Now imagine you live in that country, because you just might.

Here are the facts as we know them:

• Mexico is currently in a large drug war that has seen violence spill over into American soil
• There are many who feel strongly against illegal immigrants coming over from Mexico
• Mexico City, one of the largest, most populated cities in the world, was on lock down Sunday, April 26th
• TheUnited States has tested Syphilis on poor black sharecroppers from 1932 until 1972
• There was a Swine Flu "epidemic" over 30 years ago, that originated in the US

Take what you will from all of this, the most important thing you can do is be careful. Here are 5 things you need to know about the current swine flu.
